Exhibits & Vendors — All Day
From 9:00 a.m., the Breakout Room hosts poster sessions and vendor tables, with vendors staying on until 9:00 p.m. The Lobby holds our premium vendor space from 9:00 a.m. through the end of the evening programme, and hosts the VIP reception at 5:30 p.m. Both are open between sessions, so you can visit exhibitors without missing anything in the Main Ballroom. Contact us if your organisation would like a table.
