What type of networking events are available?
The reception on Monday evening provides an opportunity to connect with program attendees in a relaxed, social setting while representing your company. 

Can exhibitors attend the educational sessions?
Yes, for those exhibitors just wishing to sit in on a session or two, your exhibitor badge entitles you to do so provided there are extra seats available. However, for those exhibitors wishing to obtain CEUs, receive program materials and access the speaker presentations – Annual Meeting program registration and payment is required for day(s) of attendance. 

How can my company participate in the Exhibitor Raffle Drawings?
The Exhibitor Raffle is a great way to get more continues traffic to your booth and bring excitement to the conference. We will promote the exhibitor raffles online and during the conference. Raffle winners will be announced throughout the day. **Make sure to post your raffle winner to social media and show off your prize (and prize winner!) by using #IHIMA24!**

When will I receive the pre-conference registrant list?
The pre-conference registrant list will be emailed two weeks prior to the conference – on MONDAY, APRIL 8. Please be sure to check your spam folder as this will be sent as a distribution list. This list is to assist with marketing for one-time use only. The list will exclude attendees who have opted out of having their information shared. 
 
When will I receive the post-conference attendee list?
The post-conference attendee list will be emailed within one week after the conference to assist with one-time follow-up. The list will exclude attendees who have opted out of having their information shared.
 
What information is posted to the online Exhibitor Directory?
The online Exhibitor Directory lists your company name, description (150 words or less), logo, contact phone number, and link to company website. This information will be on the website for at least 6 months. Please review the description when posted and if there are any changes needed, email us your changes/description and the directory will be updated within 24 hours.
