What is "lead retrieval?"
"Lead retrieval" is a service that allows you to collect contact and demographic information electronically from attendees who visit your booth. Many exhibitors find this service valuable, as it allows you to follow up with interested attendees after the show.

A complete description of the rules and requirements of EDC's is available in the AUA2025 Exhibitor Rules and Regulations.
The primary responsibilities of exhibitors using EAC's are:
- Exhibitors must notify AUA of their intent to use EAC's. Please fill out our Exhibitor Appointed Contractor Form to notify the AUA.
- All EAC's are required to provide proof of liability insurance, via a Certificate of Insurance. These certificates are to be sent via the EAC Insurance Form.
- EAC's may not solicit business in the S&T Hall at any time.
- Exhibitors are responsible for conveying information regarding AUA2025 and AUA exhibitor policies and rules to their EAC's.

I would like to rent a hospitality suite/meeting space in or near the Venetian Convention & Expo Center. How do I do this?
The AUA can assist with booking meeting space in The Venetian Convention & Expo Center. You can request meeting space in AUA hotels by completing the Exhibitor Event and Space Request Form. All events, regardless of venue, require written approval from the AUA. Space is limited and reserved on first-come, first-served basis.
If you would like hospitality/meeting space in the Science & Technology Hall, consider renting an ExpoSuite.
What is an ExpoSuite?
The AUA2025 ExpoSuites are meeting rooms built in the Science & Technology Hall to enable companies to have a private area for staff to meet, relax or to engage with healthcare professionals away from the main traffic of the exhibits.
Located on the perimeter of the Science & Technology Hall, your ExpoSuite will provide the privacy of a hotel suite without the challenging transportation logistics. Your staff will have access to your ExpoSuite one hour before the Science & Technology Hall opens.
We offer standard ExpoSuites, which are accessible during exhibit hours, and Premier ExpoSuites, which are accessible on an expanded schedule.
Visit our Exhibit Opportunities page to learn more.
Are exhibitors allowed to hold social functions during the AUA Annual Meeting?
Yes, with certain date and time restrictions. Educational components are not permitted during AUA Social functions. For more information on types of exhibitor-sponsored events permitted at AUA2025, please read the Exhibitor-Sponsored Event Guidelines outlined in the Rules and Regulations. If you would like to request permission to hold an event, visit the Exhibitor-Sponsored Event Guidelines page and complete the Exhibitor-Sponsored Event and Space Request Form.
How do I register my booth staff?
Each exhibitor receives five (5) complimentary exhibitor badges for every 100 square feet of booth space rented. It is highly recommended, not to mention convenient and easy, to register your booth staff for their badges online.
If you have any changes to your booth staff as the Annual Meeting approaches, remember that you can make changes online right up until the show date—your time in line at exhibitor registration on site will be greatly reduced if your list of booth staff is accurate and complete by the show date.
When you register your staff, you must choose between two methods of receiving your email confirmation:
- you may choose to receive one confirmation for all staff badges, sent to a single contact person of your choosing, or,
- if you have a booth measuring 200 square feet or smaller, you may also choose to send an individual confirmation to each staff person receiving a badge.
Will my exhibitor badge allow me access to AUA educational courses?
Your exhibitor badge will allow you access, space permitting, to any non-ticketed educational course. If you would like to attend a ticketed course, you must register as an attendee and purchase a course pass. Course passes can be purchased on site at the Exhibitor Registration full-service desk.
How do I pick up my exhibitor badges on site?
When you pick up your exhibitor badges on site, you may choose between two different methods of badge pick-up:
- If you are the single contact for your group, and you have received the group confirmation, you may avoid lines at the full-service desk and use our Express Pick-Up kiosk. This will allow you to print all of your badges at once, so that you may distribute them to your staff.
(Note: You should only choose this method if you are certain that you will be able to distribute all of your badges. If some members of your staff need to pick up their own badges on a "will-call" basis, you should visit the full-service exhibitor registration desk, and only request the badges you can distribute directly.) - If each member of your staff has received an individual confirmation, he/she may pick up his/her badge at the full-service exhibitor registration desk. Registrants picking up badges at the full-service desk must present a photo ID and business card.
