Interested in Sponsoring a SEPA Webinar?

SEPA has created a new opportunity for our solar industry members to showcase their knowledge and experience in front of the country's leading utilities in the form of a Sponsored Educational Webinar.
 
We invite you to submit ideas for content and participate in a sponsored webinar that would be relevant for SEPA's utility audience.  Your abstract will be reviewed by the Education Committee and those selected will be asked to provide a sponsorship fee of $5,000.  We encourage our sponsors to partner with a utility to co-present the webinar content. The content of the webinar should be educational, not commercial, in nature and should focus on the utility members as the target audience.  If you wish to learn more about the benefits of sponsorship, or have any questions, please contact Cynthia Hunt Jaehne at 202.595.1148 or cjaehne@solarelectricpower.org.
