Whether this is your first time to Pittcon or you have attended past Conferences, we invite you to visit our International Booth when you arrive at the convention center.  The International Booth, easily recognizable
by its colorful international flag decor, will be located near registration.  You will receive a very warm welcome from Pittcon Committee members and conference week staff. 

The International Booth offers:

  • Multi-lingual interpreters to help solve any registration issues and assist you with any aspect of your attendance while at Pittcon 2007. 

  • Posting of attendance numbers for Pittcon 2007 and 2006 from different countries.

  • An area furnished with tables and chairs to participate in informal discussions with Committee members or other conferees.

Pittcon 2007 will be at McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, the crossroads of the United States and the world, making it easily and affordably accessible from anywhere in the world. As North America’s only dual hub for commercial air travel, the city is easy to get to from virtually anywhere. Also, direct flights are much more abundant here than in other major cities.

Exhibitor/Distributor Facilitation

The Exhibitor-Distributor Facilitation is a networking service which provides an efficient and easy way for exhibitors and distributors to connect at Pittcon 2007.  A database containing information about exhibitors seeking distributors and distributors searching for products to distribute, obtaining licensing agreements, or act as a sales representative to exhibiting companies will be available to help facilitate the connection process between interested parties.

In order to add your information to the database, please print, complete, and mail or fax the appropriate form (below). The Exhibitor Form is for any exhibitors seeking distributors; the Distributor Form is for any conferee or exhibitor searching for product(s) to distribute. 

To submit an Exhibitor Form, click here.

To submit a Distributor Form click here.

Once you have submitted this form, your information will be entered into our exhibitor/distributor facilitation database for access at Pittcon 2007.

Once you arrive at Pittcon, please go to the Exhibitor/Distributor Facilitation Booth (booth number is not yet assigned, please check back in September) and a Committee member or Conference Week Staff will be available to help you to connect with either an exhibitor or a distributor, depending on your needs.  You will also be given access to a small meeting area where you will be able to conduct business with your exhibitor/distributor.

The hours of operation are the same as expo hours:

  • Monday - Wednesday: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
