Sponsor/Exhibit
SEJ’s Annual Conference brings together 800+ attendees – mostly journalists reporting on energy, climate change, the environment and health – for five days of intensive learning, immersive tours, networking and professional development. Help support the people telling the world’s most important stories as one of our major sponsors. Or check out opportunities below to exhibit, advertise in the program booklet and more.
Volunteer co-chairs work with SEJ conference staff to select keynote speakers, plenary sessions and moderated panels proposed by environmental journalists. Participation as a speaker, moderator, tour or beat dinner leader is the editorial decision of session organizers.
NOTE: Some sponsor/exhibit opportunities include complimentary conference passes for your staff. Non-complimentary exhibitor registration rate is $600 for two or more days, $300 for a single day.
