What is included in the cost of the booth space?
Please refer to your Exhibitor Package to confirm what is included in your booth space. All expo spaces are carpeted. Any additional services (e.g. electrical or computer equipment) must be ordered using the forms provided in the Exhibitor Services Kit, provided to all Exhibitors in April 2009. The cost of your booth space does not include any registrations. Please register your staff here.
Can I pick my exhibit space?
Yes. Exhibit booth selection is available on the registration site.
Am I allowed to share booth space with another company?
No. Booth sharing is NOT allowed during the Expo.
Can my company purchase multiple booths or tabletops for the expo?
No. A single company can only purchase a single booth or tabletop.
Why can’t my company purchase multiple booths or tabletops for the expo?
Show Management would like to provide as many VOSB/SDVOSBs with the opportunity to exhibit their companies and services as possible. Since exhibit resources for this event are limited and the demand for exhibit space is high, no single company may purchase multiple booths for this event.
I own more than one business and I want to exhibit each at this year’s expo. How can I do this?
A single business owner who owns multiple businesses can register as an Exhibitor for each business separately. For instance, a business owner who owns three businesses and wishes to exhibit for each can purchase a booth and/or tabletop for each business. However, each booth/tabletop must be registered under individual companies and must also be staffed separately. The Expo registration system requires each Exhibitor to log into the Exhibitor Portal with a separate, unique email address per each business that is purchasing exhibit space.
All booth personnel must be registered for the event. Each exhibit space needs to have at least one (1) staff registered for conference (this registration fee covers admission to expo hall, general sessions, meals, evening events, matchmaking, and educational sessions). Additional booth staff may be registered as conference attendee or as booth staff.
Am I allowed to purchase multiple tabletops/booths in order to have a larger booth area?
No. If you wish to occupy larger space than what is provided with a tabletops/booth, please purchase either an 8’x10′ or 16’x10′ booth.
Will there be a Business Center?
The Caesars Palace Business Center is near the Palace Tower. It offers a full range of business services and their professional, courteous concierge staff can assist you with all types of requests to help you fulfill your business needs while you are away from your company’s main office.
The 2009 National Veterans Conference Expo will include Cyber Cafés where attendees can access the internet while on the go.

Are there special Rules and Regulations I should be aware of?
Yes. Please refer to the Exhibitor Prospectus, pp 14–15, for the complete list of Rules and Regulations and Exhibitor Conduct for the 2009 National Veterans Conference Expo.
It is AetherQuest Solutions’ goal to assure that all Exhibitors, regardless of exhibit size or location, display their products and services in an environment conducive to successful interaction with attendees, and thereby providing a rewarding trade show experience.
