Note, you may bring small tchotckes and/or marketing materials - you may also bring tablets or similar to showcase product demos or pictures. Electrical is not included. Pop-up displays and large equipment will NOT be allowed due to space constraints.

Additionally, a reminder that we will continue our usual process of prize giveaways - HCAM will draw names from the Trivia Hunt for our grand prizes. You are welcome to collect business cards and do your own drawings at your booth. We will not announce winners for you.
