The American Heart Association is bringing our Hands-Only CPR Mobile Training Unit to our Scientific Sessions 2013 exhibit floor! This will provide a unique promotional opportunity for a sponsor to support the Mobile Training Unit and build brand awareness among the thousands of healthcare professionals who attend Scientific Sessions.
About the American Heart Association’s Hands-Only CPR Campaign
The AHA’s CPR & First Aid unit is launching a campaign to raise awareness of Hands-Only CPR as a life-saving method and to increase the likelihood of people to perform CPR in an emergency. The campaign comprises a state-of the art mobile CPR training unit that the AHA is taking on a nation-wide tour to train more Americans in life-saving Hands-Only CPR. Using custom branded CPR Anytime training kits, participants will learn Hands-Only CPR and be encouraged to train their families and friends. The campaign will leverage the energy and fun of the iconic hit movie Saturday Night Fever, the song Stayin’ Alive and celebrity ambassadors to increase the fun and confidence of participants and create a memorable experience.
Promotional Opportunity:
Our new state-of-the-art mobile CPR training unit will be prominently featured at Scientific Sessions 2013. This 24-foot long (8.5’ wide x 8’ high), wrapped trailer features a visually arresting stage set, imbedded TV monitor and D.J. booth designed to create a compelling Hands-Only CPR training and awareness experience for Scientific Sessions attendees. The experience will showcase the AHA’s new public service announcement featuring celebrity Jennifer Coolidge and an animated Hands-Only CPR demonstration video. Through the experience, attendees can refresh their CPR training skills with custom branded CPR Anytime training kits while being immersed in the energy of “Stayin’ Alive” theme-styled music. Attendees will also learn about the exciting resources they can leverage with their patients and audiences.
Sponsorship Benefits include:
- Corporate or Product logo visibility on the CPR Mobile Training Unit & corresponding signage at Scientific Sessions
- Corporate logo on 1,000 custom-designed CPR Anytime kits used for training and distribution at Scientific Sessions
- Recognition on the www.heart.org/handsonlycpr website Mobile Unit Pages during Scientific Sessions
