We strongly encourage registration through the Online Registration System as the system will let you know exactly how many full-meeting and booth personnel badges your company receives – and allows you to go in and make replacements and other changes on your own. Only those listed as an exhibit contact will be able to use their user ID and password to access the online system. Please contact Jeff or Jessica with any issues or questions.

Authorized Vendor List |
|
| |
With any exhibition there are always multiple companies and individuals to deal with – from logistics to housing to marketing and furniture orders – and it's often difficult to remember who to contact. To help you with this, we've created and Authorized Vendor List for your reference. This list provides the companies that DIA has contracted with for DIA 2018. Please note as additional parties are brought on to handle various aspects of the show, the list will be updated.
If at any time you have doubts as to whether a company has been approved to represent or work for DIA or the DIA 2018 Global Annual Meeting, please email Americas.Exhibits@DIAglobal.org. DIA will not have the ability to assist you with any issues that may arise from using a non-official vendor.
