Terms of Payment
An ICEID 2012 Contract Application that is submitted without proper payment will be considered incomplete.  Incomplete applications will not be processed and will be returned to the company/organization applying for exhibit space.

Location of Exhibits
The ICEID 2012 meeting will be held in the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, 265 Peachtree Street NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30303. Exhibits will be held in the Grand Hall East and West

Space Assignment
The floor plan is designed by the Exhibits Management according to Fire Marshal regulations and the facilitation of floor traffic for all exhibitors. Exhibitors may select any of the booths as they appear on the floor plan. Applications with full payment will be date-stamped and space will be assigned on a first-come, first-served, space available basis.

Every effort is made to accommodate exhibitor requests for space and position on the floor. Due to the layout of exhibits in the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, requests to avoid or to be placed next to certain exhibitors cannot be accommodated. If Show Management is unable to assign you one of the requested booths, the next best available booth will be assigned.

Badge Registration
Each 10’x10’ exhibit will receive four (4) exhibitor booth personnel badges, which do not allow admission into scientific sessions. One complimentary scientific registration will be allotted to each exhibiting company. Additional badges may be purchased $500.00 on-site or via the Exhibitor Registration Form.

Exhibitors may pre-register for badges via the Exhibitor Registration Form (to be included with Exhibitor Service Kit). Badges will be available for pick up during attendee registration hours.
