Exhibit materials on tabletop displays may not extend beyond the tabletop dimensions of 8 feet in length or 48 inches in width. No exhibitor or vendor can change or move the arrangement of his or her tabletop or booth (this includes the drapes that will be used in the booth areas).
Audio and video devices operated in an objectionable manner in the opinion of the conference organizers may be prohibited. Booth or tabletop noises must not interfere with the conversation of other exhibitors, vendors or attendees.
