This symposium relies on finacial sponsors and supporting organizations to help keep registration costs low and allow recognition of the award winners. Currently there are three levels of financial sponsorship, platinum ($1000), gold ($500), and silver ($250). Sponsors will be recognized during the welcome/introduction before the Keynote presentation and their logo will be prominently included in the printed program and event materials. In addition, sponsors will be recognized on this web page with their logo, and a link to their website. Gold and Platinum level sponsors will also receive a table/booth at the symposium, along with one free registration for Silver, two for Gold, and three for Platinum level sponsorship. If interested in becoming a sponsor, please contact Sivaram Gogineni (goginesp@gmail.com)
