Hotel, Meetings, Special Events/Receptions, Hospitality, Suitcasing and Outboarding Functions

Attendee agrees that it will not, nor will its employees or representatives conduct any type of function in the Facility or any participating hotel’s meeting rooms, public areas, hospitality suites or suites during Show hours without the prior written consent of Informa Markets. Informa Markets reserves the right to collect a commission from the hotel for rooms booked by attendees.  “Outboarding” is also prohibited. Outboarding is when a company that is eligible or not allowed to exhibit/sponsor at the Show does not/cannot exhibit/sponsor, but hosts attendees/delegates from the Show, without Show Management’s approval during set-up days or Show days. Companies that engage in outboarding may be prohibited from participating at the Show as determined by Show Management. Registration badges will not be issued to any employee of a company prohibited from exhibiting due to outboarding. Exhibiting companies are encouraged to protect their investment and report any outboarding to Show Management. “Suitcasing” refers to the practice of attending a trade show and “working the aisles” from a suitcase or briefcase to solicit business from other attendees and exhibitors. The only legitimate location to conduct business during Show hours is within contracted exhibit space on the Show floor. Samples, giveaways, catalogues, pamphlets, souvenirs, industry publications and printed matter or promotional material of any kind may be distributed only by an exhibitor and its representatives (including hosts and hostesses) and only within the confines of its booth, with the exception only of designated sponsorships and marketing opportunities for which exhibitor has contracted with Show Management. Violations should be reported to Show Management.
