• Give you the opportunity to be a part of an established event in the Washington community with a stellar guest list of corporate, government (both national and international) leaders, donors and high net worth supporters.
• Expose your company to millions of people.  Last year’s event was covered by over 63 media outlets, reaching millions of people around the world.
• Provide your company with the opportunity to help lead the fight against malaria.
