Businesses Submitting Abstracts
Due to the overwhelmingly positive response of businesses submitting as presenters during the 2010 Conference, AASHE has created Sponsored Presentation Types for businesses wishing to have a speaking opportunity either during a concurrent session (for event sponsors), or during lunch breaks in conjunction with other lunch meetings.

All presentations made by businesses must include a higher education co-presenter, preferably an institution that has a success story to share directly related to the main presenter’s subject matter.
All businesses wishing to speak at AASHE 2011 are required to sponsor their speaking session AND be a member in good standing with AASHE
Interested parties should submit their presentation abstracts via the Call for Papers (CFP) portal on the AASHE website.
