Exhibit Hall Passport to Prizes
Increase your exposure with our attendee incentive program to drive booth traffic!
Included with all sponsor and exhibitor packages!
How it works:
Each attendee will receive a passport card listing participating exhibitor logos. Attendees will need to visit ALL participating exhibitors and get their passport stamped at each booth. Once all logos have been stamped on the card, attendees will return the card to the conference registration desk to be entered in a drawing for prizes. One drawing will be held during the Thursday night reception and another during the Friday dessert with exhibitors following lunch. Attendees must be present to win prizes.
Hotel
Exhibitors are responsible for making their own hotel arrangements.
