&lt;p&gt;We are excited to announce that on Thursday and Friday, October 8 &amp;amp; 9, 2026, the Minnesota Breastfeeding Coalition (MBC) will host its in-person two-day Annual Conference at the &lt;a href="https://www.wilder.org/services/meet/" target="_blank"&gt;Wilder Center in St. Paul, Minnesota&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Our keynote speaker is &lt;strong&gt;Catherine Watson Genna, BA, IBCLC&lt;/strong&gt;, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and renowned clinical expert, speaker, and author. Read more about Catherine&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://www.cwgenna.com/" target="_blank"&gt;here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Our audience will include physicians, midwives, nurses, lactation consultants and counselors, public health professionals, speech-language pathologists, and more. Approximately 150 attendees are expected from throughout Minnesota and neighboring states.&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Your sponsorship is essential to providing the high-quality, engaging educational and networking experience that this conference is known for.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This year, we have a &lt;em&gt;very&lt;/em&gt; limited number of exhibitor spaces, and they will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Small non-profit and community organizations are encouraged to inquire about providing brochures or other printed material for display at the MBC table.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;As of September 3, all exhibitor tables are full.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
