Exhibitor Portal — ExpoGuide Description, Staff Badges, Payments and Invoices
The Exhibitor Portal is now available to enter your ExpoGuide description and product category listing, enter staff badges, make booth payments and print your invoice. The ExpoGuide description and product category listing must be entered by Feb. 10, 2023, to be included in the ExpoGuide.

Exhibitor Housing
Exhibitor housing is now open! Be sure to book early. Exhibitors who cancel room reservations after April 21 will forfeit their first night's room and tax deposit for each room canceled. If you have questions, please call Convention Housing Management, the official AACN housing bureau, at 800-340-1840. Please be aware of unauthorized email solicitations from non-official vendors offering housing options for NTI 2023 in Philadelphia. AACN has not approved these emails or given these companies your email address. We strongly encourage you to make hotel reservations with Convention Housing Management.
ExpoEd — Education on the Exhibit Floor
NTI exhibitors can offer education on the exhibit floor through ExpoEd activities, which apply concepts and principles about patient care and clinical practice. Activities use a variety of formats — for example, live and multimedia presentations, computer-assisted self-learning and hands-on demonstrations — and must adhere to the high standards of AACN's educational plan. ExpoEd presentations may discuss your company's equipment, products and services. Nurses can earn continuing education recognition points (CERPs) toward their AACN certification renewal for these approved educational activities on the show floor. Videotaping ExpoEd sessions is not allowed without the prior written consent of AACN. If you have questions, please email Chelley D'Amato at expoed@aacn.org. If you apply before Feb. 10, 2023, your session information will be promoted in the NTI Program and ExpoGuide.
NTI 2023 exhibitors are invited to present prerecorded virtual ExpoEd sessions for a separate fee for the virtual version of NTI 2023 June 12-14. Prerecorded topics can be the same as the live, in-person NTI, or new topics can be submitted if a virtual ExpoEd application is approved by the AACN ExpoEd team.
Sunrise Sessions — Corporate-Supported Satellite Symposia
Sunrise Sessions provide your organization with a unique opportunity to host an exclusive educational session Tuesday, May 23 or Wednesday, May 24, from 7-8:30 a.m. These popular breakfast sessions are designed and planned by the corporate sponsor, from selecting the educational topic and expert presenter to determining the size of the audience. AACN offers NTI attendees CERPs for Sunrise Sessions. CERPs are an AACN designation for nurses to help fulfill continuing education (CE) requirements to maintain AACN certifications and are similar, but not equivalent, to a CNE or CME contact hour. Apply by Feb. 10, 2023, to receive great benefits, including a $2,000 savings on your Sunrise Session fees, a priority time slot and greater exposure for your session by being included in NTI promotional materials. If you are interested in sponsoring a Sunrise Session and would like to discuss the benefits, please email Chelley D'Amato at sunrise@aacn.org.
NTI exhibitors may sponsor and present prerecorded virtual Sunrise and Sunset sessions, June 12-14, for a separate fee for the virtual version of NTI 2023. A separate application and fee is required for each virtual session.
