 Speaker Sponsorships For BakingTech 2016

ASB thanks the following companies for their generous sponsorship of speakers during the upcoming 2016 BakingTech:
  • BEMA - Gold Sponsor
  • Bundy Baking Solutions - Gold Sponsor
  • Burford Corporation - Gold Sponsor
  • Baker Thermal Solutions - Silver Sponsor
  • Stewart Systems -Silver Sponsor










The BakingTech 2016 Planning Committee has developed a program that includes speakers from outside the baking industry who will present examples of innovations which have led to growth within their industry.

Speaker Sponsorships will enable ASB to attract these speakers from outside the industry who charge speaker fees/honorariums which are not required by our traditional ASB member/industry speakers.  Your partnership will help to improve the educational opportunities during BakingTech without increasing the costs of registration for attendees to the conference.

Partners will receive recognition in the BakingTech final program, conference app, website, on signage at conference, and in social media.

Sponsorship Forms are available here.
