Exhibit booths must remain set up in their entirety until 10:30 a.m. EDT on Wednesday, May 1. Any exhibitor who does not abide by the designated exhibitor move-out schedule will be penalized 5 priority points which may impact your booth selection for the 2025 AOCS Annual Meeting & Expo.

No. It appears fraudulent companies are scouring the annual meeting website for session chair, presenter and exhibitor information and are reaching out under the guise of working with AOCS. These companies are not affiliated with AOCS in any way and are attempting to obtain personal information and credit card numbers in exchange for an excel document. We are not sure what contact list they are attempting to sell, but we guarantee it is not the actual AOCS annual meeting attendee list.

Access to the attendee list depends on your 2024 AOCS Annual Meeting & Expo sponsorship level. Sponsors at and above $5,000 in total spend (Tremblant, Mont Royal, Old Montreal, and Beaux Arts) will receive the annual meeting registration list* on April 12, 2024, two weeks prior to opening day, and after the meeting on May 10, 2024.

The list will be emailed as a password-protected excel file and will come from clara.chun@aocs.org. The columns on the list include: First Name, Informal Name, Last Name, Full Name, Professional Title, Company, City, State, Country and Email Address.

The attendee list can be used for communications regarding your participation in the 2024 annual meeting, as well as your related products, services or both. All attendees included on the provided list have agreed to the following statement during the registration process: “Would you like for us to share your information with the meeting exhibitors and sponsors, who will use it to communicate with you regarding this event and their other services?” The attendee list cannot be copied, photocopied, reproduced or entered into a computer database.

*Per the AOCS Privacy Policy, attendees can opt out from making their contact information available to sponsors and exhibitors.

Join us on April 3, 2024, 11 am-12 noon Central Time (US and Canada), for an educational webinar to empower you on the path to success, and to achieve this, we've collaborated with Jared Lockwood, a seasoned Sandler Sales instructor from The Roger Wentworth Group in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA. Registration is complimentary for all members of your company, ensuring that you can fully benefit from this valuable resource. Discover the secrets of successful trade show sales through the Sandler Selling System. Co-designed by David Sandler and a clinical psychologist, this approach prioritizes mutual respect, clarity, and qualified decision-making, fostering a collaborative and enjoyable sales process for both you and your prospects. The goal of the event is to equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary for a successful and fulfilling trade show experience.

We will not be offering lead retrieval services for the 2024 exhibition. However, we are happy to meet in advance to collaborate with you on alternative lead generation tactics to implement at your booth. If you would like assistance, please contact Amy Garren at amy.garren@aocs.org.

Featured Exhibitors receive an enhanced listing on the annual meeting website and in the Program Guide. Exhibitors interested in upgrading should contact Amy Garren, AOCS Director, Partnerships at amy.garren@aocs.org.

Product Showcases occur in the Exhibit Hall Theater and are opportunities for exhibitors to give a 10-minute product presentation to entice attendees to see them at their booth for a more focused business conversation. These 10-minute presentations on Monday, April 29 and Tuesday, April 30 do not include a Q&A session. They are intended to highlight key takeaway information about your products and services. Use the Product Showcase to cultivate interest by highlighting your products and services to set the stage for qualified follow-up discussions at your booth.

Receive advance promotion of the onsite presentation to attendees, recognition on the annual meeting website (annualmeeting.aocs.org) and in the Program Guide. You will have an opportunity to pre-record your Product Showcase for your use after the meeting and which can be made available from the AOCS annual meeting website and YouTube channel for 12 months. We will not record the Product Showcases at the meeting as it will not be of good audio quality, so the pre-recorded presentation provides you with an option to share what you presented in a more viewer/listener friendly format. Maximize your onsite presentation with white papers, case studies, marketing collateral, and more to fully showcase your products and services.

Exhibitors interested in participating in the Product Showcase in the Exhibit Hall Theater should contact Amy Garren, AOCS Director, Partnerships, at amy.garren@aocs.org.
