Exhibitor and Sponsor Details for November 2026 Conference

Preparations are underway for the upcoming conference, scheduled for November 10–12, 2026, at the Saint Paul RiverCentre. Organizations are preparing to move into Exhibit Hall A at 175 W Kellogg Blvd in Saint Paul to showcase their services.

The event structure mandates a specific timeline for setup and operations. Exhibitors have two windows to prepare their displays: a formal setup period from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Monday, November 9, or a morning window from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, November 10.

The exhibit hall will officially open its doors at 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, with take-down procedures slated to begin immediately following the hall’s 7:30 p.m. closing time that same day.

The fee structure for booth space was tiered based on timing, with a $250 late fee applied to any registrations finalized after October 8. The registration window ran from July 8 through October 20, 2026, with additional booth representative registration becoming available on August 3.

Participating organizations receive a standard package consisting of a pipe-and-drape booth, a skirted table, and two chairs. The cost for these spaces scales based on the number of tables or booths reserved:

Number of Booths	Standard Fee	Late Fee (After Oct 8)
1 Booth	$1,000	$1,250
2 Booths	$1,500	$1,750
3 Booths	$2,000	$2,250

While one representative is included with the registration for November 10, companies requiring additional staffing for the full three-day conference duration must pay an additional $550 per person. Discounts for multiple booths were applied automatically at the time of online checkout, and exhibitors were responsible for selecting their specific booth locations during the initial registration process.

Beyond standard exhibitor space, tiered sponsorship opportunities are available, ranging from $2,500 for a Bronze level to $7,500 for a Gold sponsorship. Four specialized advertisement packages were also offered at $2,000 each. These levels provide varying degrees of visibility and benefits outlined in the event’s brochure.

For the social portion of the gathering, attendees will have access to hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar during the reception. Exhibitors looking to facilitate networking through pre-purchased drink tickets must coordinate directly with Jennifer Okerstrom at [email protected]. The hard deadline for purchasing these drink tickets is November 3.

The financial commitment for participating organizations is subject to a strict refund schedule. Cancellations made by August 12 were eligible for a 75% refund, while those who withdrew between August 13 and October 19 received only 25% of their registration fee back. As of October 20, all registrations are considered final, with no refunds permitted for any cancellations made on or after that date.
