We are glad that you are ready to make your investment in your business’s future success by signing up to be an educational partner (exhibitor). During the conference we think you will fill your company’s queue with good leads and new contacts. We think you are going to like our new venue, Tampa, and our new concept for the Exhibit Hall, The Ingenuity Lab!

Participants will enter The Ingenuity Lab by walking past the Registration Desk and turning into the Lab (the doors on the left side of the diagram will be closed, available for exit only – download a diagram to see what we mean). Our sessions will surely spark a hunger bug; participants will pass the majority of our booths to obtain the sustenance to prepare themselves for more sessions. The Silent Auction, Awards Area, and a Cyber Café will keep the Ingenuity Lab busy with traffic, but we’ll further help our attendees visit you by redeploying our “Passport.” Those who complete their Passport will be eligible for trip donated by Gohagan Travel, valued at $5,000. Please remember our theme for this year’s conference is “Ingenuity” and Sunday night’s Ingenuity Lab Reception will also have an Olympic-games slant.

A diagram for the Ingenuity Lab (aka Exhibit Hall) will be posted soon. Before registering you may want to determine what booths are still available, email Jay Philpott or call Jay at (901) 843-3846. Below are our modest fees, don’t miss out on the optional costs and additional booth arrangements – these solutions might help further distinguish you and drive traffic to your booth.
