More Than One Seat: Creating a Culture of Sponsorship
for Women in Orthopaedics

While mentorship provides valuable guidance, sponsorship creates opportunities by actively advocating for and elevating emerging leaders. This District 1 and District 3 event aims to foster meaningful discussion around the role of sponsorship in orthopaedics and provide practical insights for building a more inclusive and supportive professional community.
