2 Dear Friends, It is with great pleasure that we are able to announce that in 2013 the LIMRA/LOMA Latin American Conference will return to Latin America. The conference will take place in Foz do Iguaçu, Brazil at the Bourbon Cataratas Convention & Spa Resort from August and sessions will be designed around the 2013 theme Let the Games Begin: Winning Strategies for the Future of Latin America. These sessions will continue to focus on current topics affecting insurance and financial services companies conducting business and competing in the Latin American region. As two 90-year-old trade associations with over 1,200 member companies in more than 80 countries, LIMRA and LOMA Conferences are made possible by the generosity of our sponsors and exhibitors. Sponsorship of the Latin American Conference will help increase name recognition, build product and service awareness, and provide valuable networking opportunities with an estimated 350 key decision-makers from financial service organizations across Latin America. All sponsorships (excluding program advertisements) include the following benefits: Company name displayed on signage. Acknowledgement of sponsorship in registration brochure and program guide. Sponsor logo posted on the LIMRA and the LOMA event websites with link to sponsor website. Inclusion of one company brochure in the welcome packet that is given to all attendees at registration. Advanced delegate list sent via one week prior to event date. Due to limited availability, sponsorships will sell out quickly. Applications will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. Please Megan Schwartz at mschwartz@limra.com or call +1 (860) for additional information. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you in Brazil! Sincerely, Foz do Iguaçu d Brazil 2013 Gary R. Aluise, LLIF Senior Vice President and Managing Director International Operations LIMRA and LOMA 2 To Register: or
