There is no registration fee for this event.
Registration Process
Space is limited and registration requests will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. We therefore encourage you to register early. Your registration is actually a request to attend and each registration will be individually reviewed to assure compliance with our intended audience.
Confirmation
Online registrants will receive an initial confirmation notice that their registration has been received. All registrants who have provided an appropriate email address will receive an email confirmation when their registration is processed. In order to pick up your registration package during conference check-in at the Hyatt Regency, you MUST present a valid government-issued photo ID (such as a driver's license).
Each attendee is required to check in at the Registration desk. Admittance to the presentations and the Exhibit Hall will be limited to those with nametags.
Getting the Most Out of the Forum
We believe that assistance provided to you before the Forum, will help assure that you get the most out of the time you will spend at the Hyatt Regency. To achieve that goal, we have added various features to the Forum website to help you with your preparation. The Virtual Acquisition Showcase® allows you to select materials that you may wish to circulate internally to determine if selected opportunities have broader interest. The ability to schedule private meetings with companies ahead of time on-line, also helps you to plan. At any time, please feel free to contact Mike Morgan (585) 617-9465 if we can provide additional assistance to help you maximize the value of Forum participation.
Substitutions and Cancellations
Registration is limited. If your travel plans change, please advise of your replacement attendee or cancellation by sending an email to mmorgan@dawnbreaker.com. This will allow someone else the opportunity to attend if your company or group will not be represented.
