All-in promotional packages 

To promote specific events or partner publications, S|B has put together special packages in which we list the event as a Science|Business “partner event” on the relevant section of our website, hyperlinked to the client’s site. Additional visibility is given by a banner advertisement campaign both on the site and in our newsletters and by supporting social media promotion with original and targeted content.

The number of total impressions depends on the agreed-upon duration of the promotional campaign and can be amplified further to specific segments of our audience, defined in cooperation with the client.
