CONFIRMED SPONSORS FOR ICPOW2025
The 5th International Congress on Parasites of Wildlife (ICPOW) will be held jointly with the 53rd annual congress of the Parasitological Society of Southern Africa (PARSA) in Kruger National Park during 14-18 September 2025.
Session themes will include amongst others: molecular biology, taxonomy and systematics (that is based on molecular analyses), parasite-host interactions, immunology, parasite ecology, disease and transmission ecology, veterinary parasitology, parasite evolution and host-switching.
Our congress is dedicated to bringing together more than 120 established researchers and postgraduate students from various institutions to share most exciting results and insights in the field of parasitology. This will be an opportunity for delegates from all involved sectors to engage with leaders in the field and network in the comfort of a state-of-the-art conference facility.
Industry involvement is one of the key elements to the success of ICPOW2025.
The congress provides a number of Sponsorship and Exhibition opportunities to suit your organisation’s requirements and objectives, with great benefits. We will also offer you the ability to customise/tailor your preferred package to meet your specific marketing and budgetary requirements.
Your presence and contribution enhance the overall scientific impacts of the congress – through promotional opportunities, scientific exchange and community engagement. In principle, all sponsors will be treated on a „first come, first served“ basis and will be mentioned in all Congress Publications, such as the Final Program and the Congress Website.
On behalf of the Organising Committee, we look forward to welcoming you as a valued Partner, Sponsor or Exhibitor at ICPOW2025.
