Our attendees travel locally, across the United States, and around the world to participate in the CIES Annual Meeting. CIES 2024 will be held in Miami, FL at the Hyatt Regency Miami. In addition to the onsite days (March 10-14, 2024), CIES 2024 will still offer two online days (March 6-7, 2024).

Please consider joining us on-site in Miami FL or virtually through our Meeting Hub.

EXHIBIT SPACES at the in-person conference will be in the Riverfront Hall in the Lobby Level of the Hyatt Regency Miami Hotel. You will be given the option to select where you would like to be set up. Both are in the heart of conference meeting rooms.

The exhibitor set-up includes:

• • a six-foot covered table;
  • two chairs;
  • a small trash can;
  • complimentary Wi-Fi; and
  • name badges for your representatives stationed at your tables in the exhibit area.

Note: Up to three staff badges will be issued per exhibit table. Exhibitor badges do not substitute for CIES 2024 conference registration. If you are a conference participant/presenter, you must register. Staff badge names will be collected from exhibitors in mid to late February. 

Exhibitors will be listed on the CIES 2024 Online Conference Hub with a description of your organization, social media account(s), and link to the URL of your choice.
