The second annual POWERuP Leadership Conference (Providing Opportunities Which Educate and Re-energize Professionals) is seeking sponsors. The conference this year will take place on Tuesday, November 13, 2012 at the Great Hall Banquet and Convention Center. The first year focused on the region's leadership alumni, but this year's conference will feature both the region's leadership alumni and young professionals.

The day will be two half-day conferences in one - the young professionals in the morning and the alumni in the afternoon with a common luncheon and keynote speaker. This conference is being advertised to thousands of professionals across four counties and will be a great opportunity for you to showcase your business to this unique audience.
