Exhibitor Information
Vendors usually are busiest during attendee registration, which runs from 8-9 a.m., and typically close down by lunch (about 11:30 a.m.) — although vendors are welcome to stay until the end of our event.
The exhibit area will open for setup no later than 7:30 a.m. the day of event. Exhibit tables are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Order Special Services from the Lansing Center
Exhibitors needing special services – including WiFi, audio/visual or other equipment, setup assistance or electrical service – should make arrangements directly with the Lansing Center. Visit the Lansing Center exhibitor information page and click “order services.” Prices are set by the Lansing Center. Per Lansing Center rules, vendors are not permitted to plug into the venue’s wall outlets with their own cords.

Submit a Session Proposal!
We encourage sponsors and vendors to submit proposals for sessions. Please note that not all proposed sessions will be selected for the schedule. Sessions must be educational in nature and must be applicable to all attendees regardless of whether their school is a customer of the vendor. Sessions may not be used to directly promote the vendor’s services (beyond providing basic background information about the speaker and inviting attendees to the vendor’s booth). Vendors are encouraged to work with each other to propose joint sessions. Vendors selected to present a session who do not follow the spirit of these standards will not be allowed to return to MIPA events.
