Exhibitor Resources

Cvent exhibitor portal

To help you stay on top of your exhibitor deliverables, we use the Cvent Exhibitor Portal. This is where you’ll find a list of tasks, deadlines, and guidelines for deliverables. You can also register your exhibiting staff and purchase LeadCapture licenses to collect leads at the in-person event, and much more.  

Admins for the exhibitor will receive an email invite to join the portal. To join correctly, please use the specific link given in the email to access the portal for the first time.

Important: Please do not click “Add your company”; your company has already been created, and this will generate a duplicate account. If you forgot your password, please click “Forgot?” 

Registration

There is a task for conference registrations in the exhibitor portal. When you click into the task you will find directions for registering your staff (in-person and/or virtual). The number of registrants included in your package are preloaded into your account, noted as Exhibitor Pass Included. 

In anticipation of your potential need for additional passes, we also pre-loaded three more purchasable passes, noted as Exhibitor Additional Passes, in the portal that you can activate with a credit card. These will be charged at prevailing Exhibitor Pass rates.   

Note: Exhibitors cannot register for the conference through the main event website—you must use the exhibitor portal. 

 

LeadCapture 

To capture leads at the event, we will be using Cvent LeadCapture. Diamond and Platinum Exhibitors have Bring Your Own Device LeadCapture licenses included and preloaded in Cvent. This license allows you to scan attendee badges on your personal device (iOS (12+) and Android (5.1+) devices supported) 

If you need additional licenses, or you are a sponsorship level that does not include a LeadCapture license in your package, log into the Exhibitor Portal to purchase (directions found in your task list). Every exhibitor level can customize LeadCapture questions within the portal. 

Conference agenda 

Your registration includes access to all breakout sessions, keynotes, and networking.
