Anthem Invests in BDPA Atlanta Chapter

Anthem invested in the basic BDPA corporate sponsorship package earlier this year. That investment provided them with corporate members, access to the BDPA Job Board and a banner ad on www.bdpa.org homepage. At the time, Anthem indicated a desire to identify internally what associates are members of local BDPA chapters in Atlanta, Indianapolis, Los Angeles and Richmond. The company sought sponsorship, speaking and hosting opportunities at these chapters.

BDPA Atlanta chapter president Derrick Brown opened up a dialogue with the folks at Anthem's corporate headquarters. He was awarded with a $2,000 investment that includes co-sponsorship of the chapter's Holiday Party. 

There are remarkable opportunities for BDPA to partner with many champions in Corporate America.  Follow the example set by Derrick Brown to grow your chapter in both size and financial strength.  Feel free to reach out to the BDPA corporate sales team if you have questions or wish to discuss further.
