Sponsor Display Set-up and Removal Times

Move-in Displays: Sunday, June 5: 11:00am–7:00pm
Move-out Displays: Thursday, June 9: 3:30pm–5:30pm
  • Space is limited. You will be provided with a quantity of 6’ tables based on your level of sponsorship, and two chairs.
  • Each 6’ table comes with a cube of display space equal to 6’ wide by 6’ deep. A three foot walkway will be maintained between each display.
  • Pop-up banners may be used, as long as they fit within the cube of space (on top of or behind the table).
  • If you plan to put pop-up banners behind your table, make sure your graphics department knows important content should appear at the top of the banner.
  • Additional costs will be incurred should you require electricity for your display.
  • Sponsor display placement is determined by the organizers and your table will be identified with a tent card.
  • Sponsor table top displays will be located in the poster hall, and placed around the perimeter of the room, with attendee seating, digital posters and refreshment breaks set up in the remaining space.
  • Table top displays are meant to serve as a forum to show informational materials so a representative does not need to remain stationed at the table. If you want to interact with attendees, the times most effective for doing so are during early morning refreshments, daily am and pm breaks, and the evening poster session.
  • Individuals assisting with setting up the table top display, but not remaining at the conference, do not need to register. Otherwise, all display staff and representatives must be full registrants.
  • If you wish to bring informational materials sufficient for everyone, we expect roughly 250-300 people to attend the conference.
  • Parking is complimentary. To unload materials, we recommend using the conference center entrance. If you need assistance by a bellman, use the hotel’s main entrance.
