Exhibitor Portal - Company Description, Company Logo and Booth Payments
The Exhibitor Portal is available to enter your ExpoGuide description and product category listing, staff badges and company logo, make booth payments and print your invoice. In order to enter a description, badges or company logo, a booth payment must have been made. If you have questions about the Exhibitor Portal, please email maribel.aguayo@aacn.org.
Staff Badges
Please enter your staff badges through the Exhibitor Portal. You can add and/or make changes at any time. Each exhibiting company is allowed to register five booth personnel for each 10x10 booth space. All badges will be distributed on-site and need to be picked up at Exhibitor Registration. You will need your customer number and invoice number, which were sent to you with your booth confirmation email. If you have any questions or need login information, please contact Maribel Aguayo at maribel.aguayo@aacn.org.
VIP Invitations to the Critical Care Exposition
VIP invitations are available for you to send to your customers, prospective customers and special guests. We hope you will invite them to enjoy complimentary admission to see your display at one of the country’s leading healthcare trade shows.
Online Service Kit
The Online Service Kit is now available and contains information for ordering exhibitor services such as booth furnishings, lead retrieval, electrical, audiovisual, security and more.
Booth Layout Approval
Exhibitors with an island booth must submit a rendering of their booth layout design to AACN for review and approval by March 25. Email your renderings to Randy Bauler at exhibits@aacn.org.
Mailing Labels
If you are interested in ordering the preregistration attendee list for direct mail only, please use the Participant Mailing Label Order Form in the service kit. NTI list rentals with the names and mailing addresses of NTI registrants who chose to receive mailings will be available in late April. Email addresses and phone numbers are not available. Please note AACN requires advance review and approval of all mailings, and we require the use of a third-party mailing service to ensure one-time use of the seeded list. If you choose to rent the preshow attendee list, you’ll receive approximately 2,500-3,000 names of NTI attendees. Exhibitors are responsible for all printing and postage costs, along with the NTI 2026 list rental fees. The deadline to order is April 10.
AACN Gift Certificates
Exhibitors can give the gift of education to NTI attendees. Gift certificates can be used to purchase educational materials, publications and other items. Please complete the AACN Gift Certificate order form, or if you would like more information, call AACN Customer Care at 800-899-2226.
Exhibitor Housing
Exhibitor housing is now open! Be sure to book early. Exhibitors who cancel room reservations after April 15 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 2026 in San Diego. 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.
