WELCOME POTENTIAL SPONSORS
We are excited to extend an invitation to your organization to become a sponsor for the Mississippi 911 Coordinators Association this year's annual fall conference that is coming up in October in Mississippi.
This year’s theme is “Under the Sea of 911: Deep Dive Into Part of our World”. Our goal is to offer practical tips and resources for building resilience within Mississippi’s Emergency Communications Centers.
WHEN
The Mississippi 911 Conference will take place October 28-31, 2024 at the Golden Nugget, Biloxi, Mississippi. This has been a joint conference of all three 911 State Chapters including the Mississippi 911 Coordinators Association, Mississippi NENA and Mississippi APCO. This event is attended by over 125 Telecommunicators from Frontline Telecommunicators to Administrators and over 30 sponsors. Our goal this year is to make this the best conference yet by providing exceptional training and knowledge to our #MS911Heroes. Your sponsorship will be paramount to achieving this goal!
