The official AAPM badge must be worn whenever an Exhibitor representative is in the exhibit hall. Exhibitor badges are not to be issued to individuals who wish to gain admittance for the purpose of contacting other Exhibitors. False certification of any individual as an Exhibitor's representative, misuse of Exhibitor's badges, or any other method or device used to assist unauthorized personnel to gain admittance to the exhibit floor will be considered a substantial violation of the rules. Violators will be fined $300.00 per incident and the individual(s) in question will be escorted from the meeting.

Special work passes will be issued for gaining entrance to the exhibit hall during installation and dismantling. Ten work passes will be available to each Exhibitor Contact. Should you need more than 10 prior to arriving show site, please contact Rachel Smiroldo at rachel@aapm.org. Work passes will also be available at show site at Exhibitor Registration and the loading dock located at the back of the exhibit hall. During installation and dismantling admission to the Exhibit Hall is by work-pass and exhibit badge only. Work passes are valid ONLY during installation and dismantling; an exhibit badge is required during exhibit hours.

Exhibitors agree not to schedule or conduct any outside activity including, but not limited to, receptions, seminars, symposia, and hospitality suites that are in conflict with the official program of the AAPM Annual Meeting, whether such activities are held at or away from the Exhibit Hall. However, Exhibitors are allowed to hold staff meetings at any time, as long as only exhibitor personnel are involved. Permission must still be requested by emailing Rachel Smiroldo.

Any Exhibitor wishing to hold any outside activity in conjunction with its exhibit must email to Rachel Smiroldo for written approval. You will receive an approval notification from AAPM HQ via Email. The notification will include contact information for each of the designated 2017 AAPM hotels and the Colorado Convention Center. Upon approval, you will make function-arrangements directly with the hotel of your choice or the Colorado Convention Center.
