Relative to marketing collateral and in an effort to be more sustainable ATEC:
- Encourages all delegates to "go green". Please bring as much marketing collateral electronically as possible on fully charged iPad/laptops. There will be charging points within the room however they will not be directly accessible from their tables. We do understand some sellers may wish to bring printed presentations which is OK if you prefer.
- Discourages the need for prizes, giveaways etc. in an effort to reduce waste and our carbon footprint for the event.
- Advises that no pull up banners or display signage is permitted.
- Sellers are welcome to bring a branded tablecloth for the B2B table. Note the tables are approx. 120cm x 75cm.
