Sponsored symposia are a critical element of the conference week and offer delegates additional content to enrich their understanding of developments in nutrition. Sponsored symposia are also a critical funding source for the Conference, allowing sponsors to share their priorities while supporting the broader conference.
We welcome interested sponsors to submit their proposals for a sponsored session to be featured at MNF 2026.
If you have more questions about sponsorship opportunities, please view our prospectus.
The proposal system is now open. We await your submission!
