Exhibitor Manual
The exhibitor services manual will be available and emailed to you later this month.
Exhibitor Move-In
Exhibitor move-in for IPC APEX EXPO is targeted, meaning each exhibitor will be assigned a specific move-in date and time in which their shipments can arrive. Due to the high volume of exhibitor freight for this event, we use this systematic process for the receipt of freight and delivery to booths which is based on when IPC obtain access to the exhibit halls, the location of booths in the exhibit hall and on specific exhibitor needs. A scheduled target time means that your freight will begin to be unloaded at some point during your allotted time frame. The targeted move in plan will be included in the exhibitor service manual which will be available later this month.
Display Regulations
As you begin your booth design for IPC APEX EXPO, please be sure to review the display regulations specific to your booth type. Also, if using an exhibit house, please share this information with them to ensure your booth is compliant. Variances to the display regulations will not be granted for any booth, regardless of circumstances.
Exhibitor Appointed Contractors (EACs)
There will be no fee for exhibitors who choose to use an exhibitor appointed contractor for 2023. All exhibitors are required to submit an EAC notification form to IPC to notify us in advance of your intent to use an independent contractor for your booth. The EAC notification form will be available in the exhibit service manual and are due on December 30, 2022
