IMPORANT NOTE: SPACE ASSIGNMENT

Please note that planning for an in-person meeting during a pandemic creates unique challenges. While COS will make every effort to ensure that selected booth location is accepted, it is important to note that final placement of companies’ booth will be determined by COS in order to best maximize the space, traffic flow and take into account the potential need for social distancing. Exhibits are assigned according to sponsorship levels, booth size, exhibitor requirements and efficient use of all exhibit square footage. 2023 sponsors have first option on booth location.
