Information for Potential Exhibitors and Conference Champions

Joint Conference - New Audience!

For 2013, MFPT has teamed up with the International Society of Automation (ISA) to run our Conference in alongside their 59th International Instrumentation Symposium (IIS).  With 6 parallel technical sessions and IIS's added technical focus this means double the audience for exhibitors, so reserve your exhibitor slot now!

Be a Conference Champion

In line with an ISA IIS tradition, and in addition to our usual exhibitor opportunities, companies and organizations are encouraged to be a 2013 MFPT/IIS Conference 'Champion'.  These opportunities bring a range of benefits including an Exhibitor Station or Conference Registrations, and raise the Champion's profile by giving exclusive sponsorship of a Conference event or break, as follows (see flyer for further details):

• Platinum Champion ($7000 - one opportunity): exclusive Top-level Conference sponsorship, includes an exhibitor registration and an additional attendee registration

• Gold Champion ($5000 - one opportunity): Thursday lunchtime Awards Banquet sponsorship, includes an exhibitor registration

• Silver Champion ($3000 - one opportunity): Monday and Tuesday evening Exhibitor Reception sponsorship, includes an exhibitor registration

• Bronze Champion ($1500 - one opportunity): Conference Proceedings sponsorship, and an attendee registration

• Champion ($1000 - two opportunities): Coffee Break sponsorship

Please contact MFPT Executive Director Chris Pomfret or Administrative Officer Rick Wade if you are interested in any of these opportunities.

Exhibit Space

Both six foot tables and eight by ten foot booths are available for exhibitors.  Each location includes a 6 ft table and two chairs; the booths include back and side drapery.  The cost per table is $1200 and the cost per booth is $1500.  The fee for either includes:

• Registration for two Company representatives to man the booth, and have full access to the technical Conference

• Display of your company logo and description on this website

Exhibitors may add additional representatives, either at the full conference attendee rate or, for $250 each, Exhibitor Hall representatives who will remain in the exhibitor area and not attend any technical sessions.  Exhibitor Hall representatives may attend all the social functions.

Exhibitor Registration Instructions - New: Please Read!

Please note that the Exhibitor Registration system has changed slightly from previous years to allow Exhibitors to reserve their spaces early but nominate their representatives at a later date:

• Main Form.  First, please make your Exhibitor Booth/Table registration using Exhibitor Registration Form; select your exhibitor space preferences from the open slots on the Exhibitor Hall Layout

• Exhibitor Representative Registration.  Then, please register your two Exhibitor representatives

Please contact Rick Wade by  e-mail or phone (937 256 2285 Ext 2#) if you have any questions.
