Sponsoring
ICEAA’s 2025 Professional Development & Training Workshop exhibit hall will be open for over 30 hours, with 8 hours on the Workshop schedule dedicated for attendees to visit our exhibitors. The limited number of available booths allows for a focused, consultative environment in which you can meet with current and future clients. Tuesday and Wednesday’s evening receptions, as well as food buffets and beverage breaks, will be served in the exhibit hall among the booths, providing ample time to develop leads. The exhibit hall is located in the same room as the general sessions, and adjacent to breakout session rooms.
Sponsorship information for the 2025 Workshop is not yet available. Contact Megan Jones for questions.
