As an exhibit partner, you will be among the first to welcome our visionary education leaders to KASA’s Annual Summer Leadership Institute!

Enhanced Hall Traffic

The 2012 value-added show floor plan and schedule will provide more space and quality time for attendees to visit business partners in the Market Place.

Familiar favorites such as refreshments, breakfast, massage therapy, prize giveaways, designated bingo booths, and the Internet Cafe are back on tap for this year.

Look for technology and assessment centers set up in innovative booth designs, a seated lunch for all attendees; Hollywood Walk of Fame for alliance partners and sponsors; the exciting new game, The Vault; and the Business Connection Lounge. Add networking to the list and a successful experience is on tap for our business partners.

Exhibit Space Assignments

Booth assignments in the Market Place are made primarily on a first-come, first served basis. Sponsors, exhibitors, and alliance partners may request a specific booth location based on the floor plan.

KASA will make every attempt to assign one of the spaces you request on the registration form; however, specific booth assignments are not guaranteed. In the event KASA is unable to honor all requests, assignments will be made in priority order as follows:

1. Partner/sponsor and corporate member requests will be given first priority in order of sponsorship level.
2. Requests will be considered based on the organization’s length of participation in past KASA conferences.
3. Requests will be honored based upon the date received.

Booth assignments made upon receipt of registration form.
