Join Us for AAPM 2020We invite you to participate in the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM) 36th Annual Meeting and Preconferences February 26–March 1, in National Harbor, MD. The theme of the meeting is “Innovation & Technology in Pain Medicine.” AAPM has evolved as the premier organization for clinicians practicing the specialty of pain medicine in the United States. As the practice of pain medicine has grown, a defined body of knowledge and scope of practice has emerged. Pain medicine is recognized as a discrete specialty by the American Medical Association (AMA), and AAPM is the only comprehensive pain medicine organization with representation in the AMA. At our 36th Annual Meeting, we anticipate an audience of 1,000 clinicians specializing in pain medicine from across the United States (demographic information can be found on page 4).

The educational programming in 2020 will offer the most current information about the research, diagnosis, treatment, and management of acute pain, chronic cancer and noncancer pain, and recurrent pain. The Annual Meeting’s opening reception is Thursday, February 27, and sessions take place through Sunday. Please visit painmed.org/2020 for additional Annual Meeting information, including preconference programming.

This prospectus provides an overview of the opportunities for commercial support and promotional programs available at the Annual Meeting and contains AAPM’s rules and regulations regarding your exhibit participation. AAPM also is offering many new marketing opportunities to promote your presence at the meeting.

We look forward to seeing you at the premier meeting for the specialty of pain medicine!

1. APPLICATION AND ELIGIBILITY. Application for booth space must be made on the printed form provided by AAPM (hereinafter “the Association”), contain the information as requested, and be executed by an individual who has authority to act for the applicant. This exhibition is designed for the display and demonstration of products and services relating to the practice and advancement of the art and science of pain medicine and the professional education of those individuals attending the Association’s 2020 Annual Meeting. The Association shall determine the eligibility of any company, product, or service. The Association may reject the application of any company whose display of goods or services is not compatible, in the sole opinion of the Association, with the educational character and objectives of the exhibition. In the event an application is not accepted, any paid space rental fees or deposits will be returned. This contract is binding upon receipt and acknowledgment by the Association. One or more of the following constitutes acknowledgment: Association confirmation letter or e-mail message, meeting information sent to exhibitor, receipt of decorator kit or information.

2. EXHIBIT BOOTH PRICE. Price per 10’ x 10’—$3,500; 10’ x 20’—$7,000; 10’ x 30’—$10,500; 20’ x 20’ island—$21,000; 20’ x 30’ island—$28,000; 20’ x 40’ island—$35,000; 30’ x 30’ island—$42,000.

Badges for spouses are charged against this four-badges-per-booth allotment.

3. PAYMENT DATES. No booths will be guaranteed until the Association receives full payment of the total booth fee, along with a signed contract. If full payment is not received by November 1, 2019, the Association will have the right to resell the assigned booth space. The exhibitor expressly understands and agrees that all amounts paid hereunder will be applied first to any outstanding obligations due the Association by the exhibitor, and then to the amounts due in accordance with this paragraph hereof, that any resulting arrearages must be paid within the time limits specified herein, and that the Association will have the right to cancel this agreement if the exhibitor is or becomes in arrears with respect to any outstanding obligation due the Association. Credit card payments of $5,000 or more will be assessed a 3% processing fee.

4. CANCELLATION OF BOOTH SPACE. In the event that the exhibitor notifies the Association in writing of the exhibitor’s intent to repudiate the contract after acceptance but prior to October 1, 2019, a full refund of monies received, minus a $250 administrative fee, will be made. A penalty of 50% of the cost of the total booth space contracted will be imposed for a written cancellation received between October 1, 2019, and November 1, 2019. No refunds will be made or cancellations accepted after November 1, 2019.

If for any cause beyond the control of the Association—such as, but not limited to, the destruction of the exhibit facilities by an act of God, the public enemy, authority of the law, fire, or other force majeure—the Association is unable to comply with the terms of this contract and deliver the space allotted hereunder, this contract shall be considered terminated and any payments made hereunder by the exhibitor shall be refunded to the exhibitor, less expenses incurred by the Association to the date of the termination allocable to the exhibitor after proration thereof among all exhibitors.

5. ASSIGNMENT OF BOOTH SPACE. Space will be assigned beginning September 1, 2019, according to the date on which the contract and deposit are received, the points earned, the availability of the requested area, amount of space requested, special needs, and compatibility of the exhibitor’s products with the Association’s aims and purposes.

Points earned depend on three factors:A. The number of years the exhibitor has been active with the AAPM Corporate Relations CouncilB. The number of AAPM shows in which the exhibitor has participatedC. The amount of space the exhibitor has used in previous shows.

The Association reserves the right to assign space other than the choice requested, if necessary, and the right to rearrange the floor plan and/or relocate any exhibit.

Any exhibitor who is uncertain as to whether an exhibit is in compliance with all applicable regulations and requirements should contact the Association.

16. INSURING EXHIBITS. Exhibitors are encouraged to insure their exhibits, merchandise, and display materials against theft, fire, etc., at their own expense.
