Hub

The Hub - Exhibitor Opportunities

The “Hub" that launched as a new Expo format for the 2022 conference is BACK! 

The Hub allows for more engagement, networking, the place for impromptu meetings, tabletop exhibits and full exhibit booths, micro-learning, Poster Sessions and Showcases -- all in one place that will be convenient for conference attendees!

Exhibits provide an opportunity for YOU to showcase your organization, resources and products. AAFCS Communities, Affiliates, partners, and other organizations are invited to participate and reserve exhibit space.  The 2023 conference offers space without the pipe and drape display. The open concept allows for more visibility and more engagement! 

If you have questions that you cannot find the answers on this page and are interested in participating in the "Hub" at the 2023 conference, please email annualconf@aafcs.org for more information.
