Click here for 2024 booth information. The booth map will be available on Whova by September 16. Please note that booth locations may change slightly once the pipe/drape is installed to maximize the space and visual affect for our sponsors, exhibitors and attendees while staying within safety parameters.
What is included with my booth?
All booths include draping, an 8’ skirted table, 2 chairs, a wastebasket and your company name.
Will I receive an attendee list?
In 2018, we introduced our enhanced conference app, Whova, which offer sponsors and exhibitors the opportunity to directly connect with potential customers while ensuring data privacy compliance. Through Whova's partner LeadGen, leads can be exported, providing a seamless experience for sponsors and exhibitors.
When can I set up my booth?
The Exhibit Hall will be open on Sunday from 12:00 - 4:30 p.m. for set up.
How do I "rotate" my booth staff?
We no longer allow rotation. Each sponsor or exhibitor booth is assigned two attendees, and this allocation remains fixed throughout the event. If you need additional staff, you can register one more attendee for a fee of $150 through the website.
I have a product/service that I want to giveaway at the conference, how do I do this?
Thank you so much for providing a giveaway for the attendees! You are welcome to giveaway your item directly from your booth at a time that is convenient for you. We encourage you to take advantage of our conference app, Whova, by either posting your giveaway details on the app or sending an email with the promotion details and we will schedule a time to send out your giveaway details to our attendees through Whova.
