The show floor remains a key component of PSDA s premier annual event, allowing manufacturers and suppliers to showcase their products and services to distributors. This year, we created a more compact footprint to create an intimate business experience that maximizes opportunities for one-on-one business discussions. PSDA15 will have fewer booths, and all will be the same size (8 feet by 10 feet). This modular floor plan is designed to grasp attendees attention. Distributors consider PSDA s premier event as a onestop shop where they can explore everything from their immediate needs to potential future ones. With a more consolidated floor plan, distributors will be less stressed about racing to every booth for some brief time to kick the tires, and they will be more likely to spend quality time with prospective business partners. With only 85 booths available, how do I make sure my company gets one? PSDA member companies booth contracts and payments will be processed in the order they are received, so those that act first will be accommodated. Do not delay! 2015 Exhibit Schedule Wednesday, April 1 Exhibitor Move-in* :00 am 10:00 am Show Open :00 am 6:00 pm Networking Happy Hour :00 pm 6:00 pm *Times subject to change. What opportunities are available to get exposure to attendees beyond my booth, especially if I am accustomed to having a larger space on the show floor? There are additional sponsorship options available, several of them unique and new for 2015, that will enable exhibitors to get more exposure and cultivate enhanced brand awareness among attendees. If you are interested, please contact your primary PSDA sales contact. When can I set up and tear down my booth, and what are the show hours? Exhibitors can setup from 7-10 a.m. on Wednesday, April 1. The show hours will be from 11 a.m.-6 p.m. on that date. Tear down can be done from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, or Thursday, April 2, from 8-11 a.m.
