We are reimagining the 2021 NAIS Annual Conference to bring the community spirit and networking energy to an inspired and engaging online space. We will share more details about the reimagined conference experience—and sponsorship and exhibiting opportunities—soon.
Sponsoring the NAIS Annual Conference builds visibility for your brand, connects you with educators, and gives you a forum to share your organization’s expertise. Whether you are trying to reach schools at the local or national level, aligning your company with this conference will win your brand valuable exposure to 5,000+ attendees, including independent school leaders, administrators, and teachers throughout the country.
