Invitation
    Nau mai, haere mai!
    Welcome to CIRTA 2021.

    We are delighted to invite you to join us for the world’s leading conference in intestinal
    failure, rehabilitation and transplantation in 2021. The challenges of the Covid-19 pandemic
    may have changed the way we can interact with each other for now, but the need for the
    highest quality care for our patients with intestinal failure remains.
    The Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplant Association is the only society dedicated to
    the care of patients with intestinal failure, whether they can be managed with parenteral
    (intravenous nutrition), rehabilitated or referred for intestinal transplantation. IRTA is rare
    in encompassing the lifespan in representing health professionals looking after neonates,
    children and adults. As well as representing researchers, doctors and surgeons, IRTA has
    a very strong Allied Health representation of specialist nurses, psychologists, dietitians,
    pharmacists and many more. As a relatively small specialist society, it has a dedicated and
    loyal delegation of 500-600 attendees every two years.
    Our Congress will bring together the world’s leading researchers and experts in the
    management of these rare diseases. We have used our famous Kiwi can-do attitude and
    ingenuity to carefully design an innovative and exciting Congress which will work just as well for
    those people joining us online and those that are able to travel to join us in person in Auckland.
    The Congress will have all the usual interactive components we have come to expect from
    CIRTA – Meet-the-Professor sessions, debates, State-of-the-Art lectures, workshops, oral and
    e-poster presentations, surgical videos and much, much more. Our agile timetable works
    across time zones so that networking with colleagues near and far will be seamless.
    Our programme is more exciting than ever before, incorporating the strong Allied Health
    component of CIRTA, and addressing the real-life challenges we face every day in managing
    intestinal failure and transplantation. What is the best way to feed a patient with intestinal
    failure? What should we do if our patient are reluctant to advance feeds? How do we
    manage patients who live a long way from our hospitals? When should we refer them for
    transplantation and what is the latest evidence about outcomes?
    For our industry partners, we will have the usual trade exhibition here in Auckland but also
    a virtual exhibition and sponsorship opportunities between online sessions, allowing you to
    interact with delegates the world over. Now more than ever we ask for your input in sponsoring
    our meeting in order to showcase Auckland, New Zealand and our National Intestinal Failure
    and Rehabilitation Service, the first of its type worldwide. Please help us to make this cutting
    edge Congress a success. Let us show the world what New Zealand can achieve!

SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITIES - CIRTA 2021
Sponsors and Exhibitors
    Take this opportunity to show your support and make connections,
    develop relationships and provide valuable exposure to your company
    and its products and services!

    Why sponsor?

    •   Sponsorship provides an excellent opportunity to promote your name
        and support your brands, maintaining a high profile among specialists,
        before, during and after this event.

    •   Sponsorship provides you with an opportunity to engage with key
        decision-makers, over three days, under one roof.

    •   Sponsors will benefit from an interested, relevant and influential audience
        in an educational / social environment away from the competition of
        everyday distractions. This may lead to new or increased sales.

    •   Sponsorship contributes to the promotion, planning and operation of
        the conference, reducing the overall cost of managing and staging the
        event and enabling a higher level of participation by the delegates.

    Delegate Demographics
    The Congress of Intestinal Rehabilitation and Transplant has in recent years attracted 400-
    550 delegates from over 40 countries, including Europe, North America, South America,
    Asia, the Middle East and Australasia. This is the first meeting to be held in the Asia-Pacific
    region and we anticipate higher numbers of delegates from within the region.

    Attendees are made up of:

    •   IRTA members

    •   Paediatricians, Physicians and Surgeons

    •   Allied Health Professionals including dietitians, nurse specialists, pharmacists,
        psychologists

    •   Trainee doctors and allied health professionals

    •   Research scientists

    •   Postgraduates

    •   Patient representatives

4   CIRTA2021 will be delivered both in person in Auckland and also through a virtual
    platform which will maximise the attendance.

Auckland
As New Zealand’s largest city, it is also the international gateway to
the rest of the country. Auckland’s waterside location has fostered
the locals’ love affair with the sea, earning this place the nickname
“City of Sails”. Auckland has so much to see and do - there’s plenty
of entertainment for a few hours, a few days or a few weeks.
Auckland is a beautiful city built around a stunning waterfront
which has been developed into a vibrant entertainment area with
a host of upmarket restaurants, bars and shops.

                                                                         5

General Information
     Virtual Events
     In light of recent global events the need to diversify the way we deliver events
     has been essential. We are excited to offer an OnAir Virtual Platform to ensure
     participation is available in case we need to revert to a virtual conference.

     Sponsors and exhibitors can still reap the benefits of attendee engagement and
     brand promotion. Sponsor logos are easily integrated into the meeting interface and
     delegate communications, while sponsors can be offered the chance to sponsor a
     session, with an introductory presentation or branded holding slide/advertisements.
     Pre- and post-meeting opportunities can also be provided,through distribution of a
     dedicated marketing email to the conference database.

     A fully integrated virtual conference, an online ‘exhibition hall’ with dedicated
     exhibitor ‘booths’ allow for easy uploading of collateral, interaction with attendees
     through live chat portals and the recording and follow-up of leads.

     Should there be a need for a fully virtual conference, our Conference Organiser will
     engage effectively with each sponsor and exhibitor to ensure their benefits are clearly
     outlined and delivered in a virtual format.

     Registrations
     Exhibitor registration includes lunches, morning and afternoon teas and the welcome
     function which is held amongst the exhibition. Tickets to the conference dinner are
     available to purchase separately during the online registration process.

     Additional exhibitors can be registered to assist on the stand at a cost of $260 + GST
     for the two days or $165 + GST for one day.

     Accommodation
     Exhibitors will be able to book accommodation at the conference hotels where
     competitive room rates have been negotiated during the registration process.

     Additional Equipment
     Any additional equipment required such as display units, shelving, stools, audio visual
     equipment etc can be ordered through the exhibition build organisation, Exhibition
     Hire Services
