Register Booth Personnel

The Exhibitor Registration and Housing Portal is open and ready for you to begin registering and making hotel reservations for your personnel.
 
Exhibit Booth designated primary contacts will receive an email that includes log-in information from our official registration and housing provider, Maritz Global Events, Inc. The log-in credentials allow access to the exhibitor portal to register and reserve hotel rooms for all booth personnel. Please refer to the Exhibitor Portal Users Guide sent to the primary contact for step-by-step instructions. The main contact retains control of the registration/housing platform for the company and can send out invites to booth personnel to register and make a hotel reservation. Exhibit personnel may not access the portal directly unless the primary contact has provided them with the username and password.

Questions about Exhibitor registration and housing may be directed to Maritz at microbeexh@maritz.com.
