About Our Pricing Model
Why commercial rates are higher
Healthcare providers, government organizations, and non-profits are the core audience for our conferences. Keeping their registration rates lower helps make it easier for more decision-makers and end users to attend.
What this means for vendors
Commercial attendees are participating in a business development context. Our pricing helps support a healthier delegate-to-vendor ratio and reduces the risk of the event becoming overcrowded with suppliers.
Why that matters
A more balanced room creates better access to healthcare leaders, more meaningful conversations, and a stronger overall return on your time onsite. It also helps ensure the event stays focused on education, peer exchange, and relationship-building — the setting in which the best commercial conversations tend to happen.

Loved the range of topics from healthcare
Loved the range of topics from healthcare groups across the province. Gave very interesting perspectives on niche programs; CHEO, rural service providers, really highlighting the diversity that exists in the healthcare industry. Q&A opportunities and polling is great for interaction.
