18. Exhibitor Rules & Regulations
Rules & Regulations for Display
Participating Company agrees to abide by all rules and regulations governing the Conference, which are
promulgated by Show Management.
Rules and regulations have proven effective in administering expositions and promoting continuity in exhibit
design and set up. It is the intent of Show Management that a professional atmosphere for the attendees and a
viable marketplace for the exhibitors exist.
The Rules and Regulations for Display that govern Predictive Analytics World are those developed by the
International Association for Exhibition and Events (IAEE).
Hilton New York Union Regulations
Exhibitors may install and dismantle their own exhibit and lay their own carpet in their own exhibit area as
long as the booth size is 100 sq. ft. (10'x10') or less and the following conditions are met:
a) The set-up can be reasonably accomplished in 1/2 hour or less;
b) No tools are used in the assembly or dismantle;
c) Individuals performing the work must be full time employees of the exhibiting company and carry
identification to verify this fact.
Exhibitors are allowed to unpack and repack their own products (if in cartons, not crates) and are allowed to
do technical work on their machines, such as balancing, programming, cleaning of machines, etc.
Exhibitors may "hand carry" for use nothing larger than a two wheel baggage cart (rubber or plastic wheels
only) to move their items.
Exhibitors may move a “pop-up” display (equal or less than 10’ in length) capable of being carried by hand
by one person. The individuals moving the items must be full time employees of the exhibiting company and
must carry identification to verify this fact.
We hope the above will help you. If you are in doubt, do not wait until you get to the show to ask questions. Call
the Show Manager or Freeman beforehand.

21. Exhibitor Display Specifications
Island Exhibit
Exhibits with one or more display levels in four or more standard units with aisles on all four sides and is
larger than 400 square feet. Because an island booth is automatically separated by the width of an aisle
from all neighboring exhibits, full use of the floor plan is permitted.
Signs and Structures cannot exceed 8' in height as the Exhibit Hall ceiling height is 9'.
There is no 8-foot draping provided for island booths and it is required that all walls must be finished on
both sides so as not to be unsightly to attendees and neighboring exhibitors. If show management finds any
walls that are unfinished or unsightly in your contracted exhibit space, then the exhibitor will be required to
pay any additional expenses to finish the wall and/or will be automatically charged for exhibit drape to cover
the unfinished/unsightly wall. Walls may be installed in any portion of the booth; however 30% of the
perimeter must be left open. If you have any type of interactive display, you must have a 3-foot clearance
from the aisle(s), to allow for crowds.
Please note:
For every 50 feet of continuous wall space, there must be an accessible exit.
Page 19
22. Exhibitor Display Specifications
Towers
A tower is a freestanding exhibit component separate from the main exhibit fixture. The height restriction is
the same as that which applies to the type of exhibit space contracted.
Signs and Structures cannot exceed 8' in height as the Exhibit Hall ceiling height is 9'.
Structural Integrity/Engineer Certification
Booth structures cannot exceed 8' in height. Two storey exhibits, regardless of occupancy or not, will require
engineering certification verifying the structural integrity of the exhibit.
Acceptable certification is a certified structural engineer’s stamp or seal directly on the exhibit blueprints.
This certification must be at show site and available to Show Management, upon request. Please contact
Hilton New York for local building codes that regulate temporary structures.
