Acceptable items for inclusion include one-page flyers (up to 8.5” x 11”), tri-fold brochures, postcards, and small branded giveaways like pens or keychains. Vendors are responsible for printing and shipping their materials by the designated deadline. Space is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. This is a cost-effective way to ensure your brand is part of the conversation from the moment the conference begins.
