CONFERENCE SPONSORS
The Games for Health 2009 conference will be hosted in partnership with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Pioneer Portfolio, which has served as the leading sponsor of the Games for Health Project since 2004. The Pioneer Portfolio supports innovative ideas that may lead to significant breakthroughs in the future of health and health care; having recognized the transformative potential of games, its support has helped Games for Health to become the leading professional community in the growing health games arena.

Humana Inc., one of the nation's largest health benefits companies, will also return as a premiere health care sponsor this year, providing support for several conference activities. Humana will present new initiatives from the Humana Games for Health (HG4H) program, which officially launched at the Games for Health conference in 2008.

Virtual Heroes of Cary, NC will also return as an evening reception sponsor.

Additional support has been provided by Mass Technology Leadership Council, IGDA, Muzzy Lane Software, Mary-Margaret Network, and H.I.L. Forum

Best,

Ben Sawyer
