* Forum Sponsorships -  The Forum sponsorship panel will consist of a 10-minute employer presentation (includes slides) or a fire-side chat with questions equaling 10-minutes (does not include slides). For the presentation, provide an employer client (health benefits professional) to participate in person on a speakers’ panel. This employer will share a brief, non-branded case study presentation to include the business case for a solution offering, program strategy, outcomes and key-takeaways. MBGH requires the forum sponsor to confirm their employer client at least 6 weeks prior to the scheduled event (Annual Conference timeline is 13 weeks prior). The employer speaker does not need to be a MBGH member nor located in the Midwest.
