Web Exhibitor Events

Organisers can give exhibitors the ability to create exhibitor events. This ability can be granted at the exhibitor category level or at the individual exhibitor level.

Exhibitor events are different from regular sessions set up by the organiser in the following key ways:

• Created by: Exhibitor events are created by exhibitors from their profile frontend, while regular sessions are created by organisers from the admin panel

• Approval: Exhibitor events need approval from organisers before being published, regular sessions do not require approval.

• Visibility: Exhibitor events can be filtered and displayed separately from regular sessions on the sessions list page, if the organiser wishes to include exhibitor events on the sessions list page

• Schedule: Exhibitor events do not affect speaker/moderator schedules by default unlike regular sessions.

• Editing: Organisers can edit regular sessions but exhibitor events can only be edited by exhibitors before approval from the organiser.

Tracks, Types, Tags, and Sponsors are shared with regular sessions and these are configured in the admin panel by the organiser.
