​
Booth Set-up / Load-In Times​
​
Exhibitor/sponsor load-in is Monday, October 3rd between Noon and 6pm. Or, if you prefer, you may load-in prior to the expo opening on Tuesday, October 4th at 7:30am. Note: You must be set-up by 7:30am on Tuesday, October 4th.
​
Booth Load-Out ​
​
Exhibitors/sponsors can begin breaking down their booths at 5:30pm on Tuesday, October 4th. We ask that you not break down prior to this, as the final keynote will be happening in the expo hall and the noise of breakdown is too distracting. Additionally, the networking reception happens right after the keynote and we want you to be there!
​
When Do I Need to Be in My Booth? ​
​
Please download the conference agenda for detail on when exhibitors need to be working their booth.
​
Expo Games​
​
We’ll be creating a game aimed at getting attendees to mix and mingle with exhibitors and sponsors In their booths. We’re honestly not sure what it looks like right now, but we know two things: 1) you’re not required to do anything, besides man your booth when you’re supposed to and 2) it won’t be a scavenger hunt where they’re only talking to you to get a stamp or code word. We’ll have more details closer to the conference.
​
Exhibitor Booth Prizes​
​
If your company is offering a prize, we will have large prize boards available for listing your prize. Please list your prize when you set-up your booth. You will find the boards at registration. Winners should be drawn during the final keynote on Tuesday, between 3:30-4pm. Please bring your winner name to registration so that we can record it on the big prize boards. The boards will be revealed during the closing networking reception on Tuesday at 4:30pm. Please note: you are responsible for getting your prize to its winner. Conference staff will not be responsible for prizes left behind at the expo.
