Overview

Each Phase II awardee will be assigned a poster board and small footprint on the floor in the “Technology Showcase,” to be held in the Atrium Ballroom of the hotel throughout the conference. On Monday and Tuesday evenings, awardees will have the opportunity to network, discuss their projects, and give demonstrations if desired.

NSF has invited a number of technology scouts from industry and potential investors/strategic partners to attend the conference and learn more about our awardees. These attendees are encouraged to visit the Technology Showcase and tour the posters throughout the conference. These representatives from industry and investors may request one-on-one meetings with select awardees. You will be contacted by email in the days leading up to the event if a one-on-one meeting is requested by one of these representatives.

Guidelines

Each awardee should hang their poster upon arrival to the conference on Sunday, June 3, or before the welcoming remarks on the morning of Monday, June 4, and leave it hanging until at least 1:30 pm on the last day of the conference (Wednesday, June 6). Although presenting a poster is a requirement, you are also encouraged to bring a prototype or demonstration to display at the Technology Showcase. If you require a table in front of your poster board for your laptop or demo, you must rent it from our exhibitor vendor. Please click here to access the online order form and portal.
