Booking early brings many benefits:

* You get one of your top table choices. Popular spots (ends of aisles, close to the food areas, and by the entrance) go first.
* Your company gets listed on the event gallery from the day you book, in the order that bookings are received, so the earlier you book, the more exposure you get.
* If you’re not yet listed in the public Image Sources directory, your free subscription will start as soon as we receive your first payment.
* Your company name is mentioned in more ads and promotional pieces in the run-up to the event.

Don’t delay, book now! If you need to spread payments please ask us about arranging a payment plan.
