The Macula Society is pleased to announce that the Promotional Support Packet for the upcoming 49th Annual Meeting, taking place February 25–28, 2026 at the iconic Hotel del Coronado in Coronado, California, is now available for corporate partners and prospective sponsors.
As one of the premier gatherings of retina specialists from around the globe, the Macula Society Annual Meeting offers a highly focused platform for sharing the latest scientific advancements and clinical research in retinal disease. This meeting is not only a scientific cornerstone but also an outstanding opportunity for industry supporters to engage with leading ophthalmologists and decision-makers in an exclusive and collaborative environment.
A Premier Platform for Strategic Visibility
The 2026 Promotional Support Packet outlines a wide range of opportunities for companies to gain high-visibility exposure, both in-person and virtually. With seven tiers of support—ranging from Topaz Support at $3,000 to the premier Emerald Support at $120,000—there is an option to match every level of engagement and marketing objective.
Support packages include valuable benefits such as:
- Listing in the support journal, on the Macula Society website, and within the meeting app
- A virtual booth and scrolling logo listing on the virtual meeting platform
- Representative registration badges based on support tier
- On-site branding and recognition, including opportunities to brand items like charging stations, floor directionals, LED banners, and even room keys (available on a first-come, first-served basis)
Higher tiers unlock additional branding and engagement privileges, such as hosting a non-CME symposium, sponsoring the membership newsletter, or supporting a day of the Speaker Ready Room.
Special Opportunities for Targeted Recognition
Beyond the tiered packages, the packet also features several à la carte promotional options, including:
- Young Member Mentor Lecture Support – available with podium recognition time, these opportunities help foster mentorship and career development among new Society members.
- Itemized branding elements such as LED banners and “Lite Moon” logo balloons for the Welcome Dinner
These offerings allow supporters to tailor their involvement for maximum brand alignment and visibility at high-traffic venues throughout the meeting.
Early Commitment Incentives
To encourage early engagement, the Society is offering reduced pricing for additional representative badges to sponsors who commit before November 17, 2025. Badge pricing increases significantly after this date, providing an incentive for organizations to finalize their sponsorships promptly to secure optimal benefits and recognition.
