This Pre-Show Podcast Series is a high-impact opportunity to position your organization in front of attendees before they arrive onsite at the Annual Meeting, and are designed to drive early awareness, build clinical relevance, and influence exhibit floor traffic by highlighting the most important topics shaping the orthotic and prosthetic practice today.
What You’re Sponsoring
The series is divided into two focused, discipline-specific episodes:
- Orthotics Episode
- Prosthetics Episode
Each episode features three sponsoring organizations, with each sponsor receiving a dedicated 10-minute segment within their selected discipline.
Only three sponsorship opportunities per track are available, ensuring strong visibility and reduced competition within each episode.
What Your 10-Minute Segment Includes
Each sponsored segment is structured as a guided, professionally produced interview designed to position your organization within clinically relevant discussion—without feeling promotional or sales-driven.
Every segment follows a consistent framework:
- Clinical Challenge (2–3 minutes)Establishes the real-world problem clinicians are facing today and sets context for the discussion.
- What’s Changing in the Field (3–4 minutes)Explores broader industry shifts—new approaches, technologies, and evolving standards of care—framed as clinical insight rather than product messaging.
- Real-World Application (3–4 minutes)Connects the discussion to patient care, clinical decision-making, and workflow impact.
How It Works
- Your organization participates in a 10-minute recorded interview segment
- Content is professionally edited for clarity, pacing, and consistency
- Your segment is placed alongside two other sponsors in your discipline track
- The full episode is distributed as part of the AAOP pre-show content series
All segments are designed to feel like a cohesive educational listening experience while still giving each sponsor clear, standalone visibility.
This is a pre-attendance influence opportunity—positioning your brand before attendees ever step onto the exhibit floor.
