Ancillary Meetings
Ancillary meetings allow you to host community or customer-focused meetings in conjunction with the in-person conference.
This opportunity is available to organizations that are EDUCAUSE members and formally participating in the 2024 EDUCAUSE Annual Conference only (i.e. exhibitors, sponsors, and presenters). If your company has reserved ancillary meeting space, please review the guidelines for details and policies.
Also, EDUCAUSE encourages you to ensure all attendees feel welcome and barriers of any type do not exclude people from attending or participating in any additional events you might host. EDUCAUSE provides reasonable accommodations for attendees participating in all official EDUCAUSE hosted conference experiences (i.e., conference sessions, exhibit hall and networking experiences, and EDUCAUSE planned receptions), and expects our corporate organizations to provide reasonable accommodations during their conference-related activities and events.
We recommend including requests for special accommodations in invitations you extend to conference attendees, even if the event is after hours or off-site. If you'd like to discuss how you might create a more inclusive and accommodating experience for your attendees, please contact us at [email protected].
