Why Corporate Support?

Corporate support provides millions of dollars in funding to advance our mission and enhance member experiences. This financial support to ASA means reduced meeting registration fees, innovative educational experiences, opportunities for scientific discovery to support key patient-care initiatives such as the Perioperative Brain Health and Opioid initiatives, and complimentary CME education offerings.
