Corporate Partner Recognition Program



The Corporate Partner Recognition Program was designed to recognize the significant role that corporations play in furthering the mission of the Academy
and the specialty of dermatology. The Corporate Partner Recognition Program
honors corporations that provide support, as shown here. For the complete
Corporate Partner Recognition Policy, view the AAD Governance Policy:  Corporate Partner Recognition Program.

 

Event/Program Specific

Recognition is provided for supporting a specific item, program, or educational event at any dollar level, as follows:

  • The supporting company will have its name and logo on the item and, in most instances, it will include a phrase referencing the grant.
  • If an activity occurs in a room, the name of the company and its logo will be placed upon a tripod outside of the room.
  • If the item supports an event such as the Annual or Summer Academy Meeting, all companies will be listed on a display board and include the items supported.
  • The listing will also be included in various Academy publications such as Dermatology World, and if event-specific at the Academy’s Annual or Summer Academy Meeting, it will be listed in the appropriate Program-at-a-Glance and AAD Annual Meeting or Summer Academy Meeting News Post Edition.
