Trade lounges and viewing of the sessions

If your team would like to view the plenary sessions in The Glade Pavilion they may do so from the Bypass Hub in the Ballroom. The Bypass Hub has been designed for sponsors and delegates to view a live feed of the sessions while being able to come and go at leisure. 

Alternatively furniture will be located in the Glade Gardens for your use during sessions. 



Exhibitor Passport

Your team will be provided with a stamp to use on delegates' exhibitor passport. Once a delegate visits your booth please ensure your team stamps their passport in the correct location indicated by your logo.
