Conference Sponsorship

Our 2026 conference will take place June 15-16 in Montréal. This year our theme is Discovery, Dialogue, Decision. This reflects our mission to bridge the gap between the rapid pace of innovation and public understanding, in a challenging landscape of political polarization, misinformation, and the decline of traditional media.

It is thanks to the generous support from our sponsors that we can hold our conference nearly every year (since 1972!) and make its programming accessible to our community of science journalists and communicators.
