We strive to keep this conference as low-cost to free as possible. However, to help keep this event free and accessible, we are currently inviting external sponsors to support specific aspects of the conference, such as space bookings, meals, technology services, keynotes, printed materials, and accessibility features like American Sign Language interpretation.
TALKS offers sponsors visibility across a diverse MSU audience committed to educational improvement as well as the opportunity to be associated with one of MSU’s most collaborative teaching events of the year. Please email CTLI.TALKS@msu.edu for more information on sponsorship.
In-kind sponsors are recognized based on the estimated value of their contribution (no more than $5,000 equivalence). All in-kind donations will be acknowledged appropriately. All sponsors and sponsorship must comply with MSU's sponsorship policy.
