Sponsorship and Exhibition

Dear Potential Sponsor,

Thank you for your interest in Rare-X – the Rare Diseases Conference held bi-annually on the African continent. Rare-X 2024 will be hosted at Indaba Hotel, Fourways, Johannesburg from 14th - 17th of February 2024.

 We look forward to welcoming health care, research, academic and industry professionals, as well as patient organisations, regulatory authorities, health associations, public policy professionals, patients, families, and caregivers, to this historic event, which is proudly hosted by Rare Diseases South Africa.

The conference is a thought- provoking forum where we share ideas, discuss the latest research, and learn from each other. A diverse programme of world – class international and local speakers will underpin the Rare-X Conference’s purpose: to facilitate engagement between those with the ability to prevent, intervene, treat, and provide supportive care for those impacted by rare diseases and congenital disorders.

This sponsorship document outlines the specific event information and details as well as participation opportunities. The conference will incorporate exhibition space, conferencing and breakaway sessions, workshops, posters, peer-reviewed abstracts as well as excellent networking opportunities, so please peruse the information provided and contact us should you wish to secure sponsorship rights.
