Each exhibitor shall maintain, entirely at its expense, general public liability insurance against claims for bodily injury, death or property damage incident to, arising out of, or in any way connected with the exhibitor’s participation in the exhibition, to the limit of not less than one million dollars (US$1,000,000) for bodily injury, death, or property damage in any one occurrence. Such insurance maintained by the exhibitor shall include coverage of the indemnification obligations of the exhibitor under these rules and regulations and shall cover ISMRM as an additional named insured.
At the time the contract is submitted, the exhibitor shall furnish to ISMRM a certificate evidencing the insurance required by these rules and regulations to be maintained by the exhibitor. That certificate, or the related policy, must provide, to the extent obtainable, that the policy may not be canceled without at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice by mail to ISMRM by the insurance company. Each exhibitor acknowledges that it is responsible for obtaining, for its protection and entirely at its expense, such property insurance for its exhibit and display materials as the exhibitor deems appropriate.

Special Regulations
Each exhibitor agrees to conduct their exhibit in accordance with the purposes, goals, and mission of ISMRM. Exhibitors may only showcase products and services that are relevant and contributing to the advancement of magnetic resonance technology and research in medicine and biology. Exhibitors are forbidden from using their exhibit to disparage ISMRM and ISMRT, its members, or other exhibitors. ISMRM reserves the right to take the following actions at its sole discretion: the closure of any exhibit space, directing security to remove exhibit personnel, and ordering a cease-and-desist of any audiovisual equipment if an exhibit is deemed excessively loud, disruptive, disturbs neighboring exhibits, or violates the terms of this contract.
No part of any exhibit, or signs relating thereto, shall be posted, nailed or otherwise attached to columns, walls, floors or other parts of the building or its furniture in any way to deface the same. Damage arising from failure to observe these rules shall be payable by the exhibitor. Operational equipment, audio-visual presentations, and other sound and attention-getting devices and effects may not create noise levels objectionable to neighboring exhibitors. Product and service demonstrations are to be straightforward and professional and must avoid the use of theatrical gimmicks.
All activities of each exhibitor must be confined to the exhibitor’s allotted space. The exhibitor must, at their expense, maintain and keep their exhibit and the space for which they have contracted in clean and good order. It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to seek prior approval for any handout items that may be considered questionable; without such prior approval, the exhibitor may be penalized priority points.
Exhibitors are allowed to photograph, videotape, or electronically or mechanically record their company’s booth for exhibitor personnel during regular floor access hours without the use of electrical lighting; this includes setup and dismantling hours. Media photographing, videotaping, or electronically or mechanically recording on the exhibit floor is permitted only with prior permission. Permission requests for media coverage must be submitted in writing to the Executive Director and/or Director of Meetings at least thirty (30) days prior to move-in. All construction materials must conform to local codes. Table drapes, textile or paper displays, back wall drapes, and any decoration must be flameproof. All exhibits and materials are subject to inspection by the local fire marshal. Violation of any of these rules by the exhibitor or its employees or agents shall, at the option of ISMRM, forfeit the exhibitor’s rights to occupy space, and such exhibitor shall forfeit to ISMRM all monies paid or due.
Venue Rules & Regulations
Exhibitors have the obligation to purchase and collect licenses and permits that are required by venue, local and/or state regulations. ISMRM exhibitors are required to comply with venue and/or local health, fire, and safety ordinances and regulations. All services and booth set-ups, including displays and electrical equipment, must comply with all state and local regulations.

Priority Placement
Points & Booth Assignments
Maximum Priority Points
Submit your Contract for Exhibit Space by Monday, 16 December 2024, in order to receive the maximum priority points possible.
Space Assignments
Announcement of exhibit space placements will be made in late January 2025.
As in past years, the Society will be awarding priority placement points. Exhibitor preferences will be honored according to the exhibiting company’s earned priority points, which are determined by the date the contract is received, as well as payment status, history with the ISMRM, booth size, corner requests, and corporate membership status; however, ISMRM reserves the right to allocate space on any other basis it deems appropriate. Priority points will be awarded on the following criteria: date points, history points, and corporate membership.
Date Points
A maximum of 60 date points may be earned by returning the application and full payment on or before Monday, 16 December 2024. Each day thereafter, two points per day will be subtracted until all date points have been exhausted.
History Points
Four seniority points are awarded for each consecutive year a company exhibits beginning with March 1994. If a company exhibited twice in 1994, they will receive an additional two points. Three points are awarded for each year exhibited non-consecutively from 1994 to 2024.
Corporate Members
ISMRM Corporate Members earn additional points that are included with Corporate Member benefits:
Gold Corporate Members | 5 points |
Silver Corporate Members | 3 points |
Bronze Corporate Members | 2 points |
Associate Corporate Members | 1 point |
All Corporate Members are rotated on an annual basis to ensure fair placement on the exhibit floor within their corporate membership category.
Corporate Member booth placement also depends upon preferences, booth size, and overall configuration of the final floor plan; however, ISMRM reserves the right to allocate space on any other basis it deems appropriate.
2025 Booth Space Design Options
Booth Space Design Options
In an effort to create a balanced exhibit area, all exhibits will be positioned strategically throughout the floor space. In fairness to all participating companies, no company shall be granted the primary location nearest the entrance for consecutive years. The ISMRM reserves the right to rearrange the floor plan at any time for any reason. The ISMRM also reserves the right to relocate any exhibitors should it become necessary for causes beyond the control of the ISMRM or advisable in the best judgment of the ISMRM. The signing of the contract constitutes full agreement with these assignment policies and procedures. ISMRM will provide written notice to any exhibitor whose booth space is affected by any change in floor plan.
Please note that the final floor plan will be different from the preliminary floor plan shown in the Prospectus for the purpose of booth selection. The ISMRM redraws its floor plan yearly based on the requests and needs of exhibitors, rather than requiring exhibitors to fit into an existing model. The ISMRM reserves all rights to draw a floor plan that best meets its show requirements but will do all possible to accommodate exhibitors’ requests as submitted on the contract for booth space.
Each exhibit booth space should be arranged in a way as to not obstruct the general view nor hide neighboring exhibits. No exhibit booth space will be permitted to interfere with the use of other exhibits or impede access to them or the free use of aisles. Plans for specially built designs are required to be submitted to ISMRM and their appointed Meeting Contractor before construction is ordered. All three booth layouts must adhere to the booth regulations highlighted below.
Booth Schematic Options
Booth Choices That Meet Your Exhibition Needs
Note:
• Your booth contract only includes the booth space. It will be the exhibitor’s responsibility to order and provide furnishings, flooring, cleaning services, and electrical set-ups in their booth space. If you select an in-line booth, it will also include the pipe-and-drape scheme and a cardboard sign identifier with company name. No pipe and drape will be provided for island booths.
- Any booth larger than 20 feet x 10 feet (6 meters x 3 meters) in size must provide detailed, scaled drawings with dimensions to the meetings coordinator (katrina@ismrm.org) and the Hawai’i Convention Center.
• The Kamehameha Exhibition Hall is a non-carpeted exhibit hall. All exhibiting companies are required to provide flooring for the full extent of the square meters of their assigned booth. This applies to all booth types (i.e., in-line, corner, and island). Carpet/flooring must be ordered through ICS; additional information and pricing details will be available in the exhibitor service kit in late-January. Booths without any floor covering are subject to be carpeted per ISMRM’s discretion and will be at the expense of the exhibitors. ISMRM will provide aisle carpeting in the exhibition hall.
In-Line Booths
An in-line Booth is one or more standard booth units in a straight line and is enclosed on three sides with the opening to the aisle. Booths at the ends of each aisle (corner booths) will be open on two sides. In-line booths can only have one (1) corner. The standard booth size is 10 feet x 10 feet (3 meters x 3 meters).

Each in-line exhibit will be a pipe-and-drape layout supplied with an 8 feet high draped back wall, two 3’ side rails (one for corner booths), and a 44″ x 7″ ID sign with company name and booth number.

Any booth above 8 feet (2.5 meters) in height must be finished on the back up to 10 feet (3 meters). Peninsula booths will also be supplied with a 44″ x 7″ ID sign header with the company name and booth number.
Island Booths
An island booth is any space exposed to the aisles on all four sides. All island booths (regardless of size) should allow 20% visibility on all sides. Examples:
• 20 feet x 20 feet (6 meters x 6 meters) island: each side of the booth must have visibility for a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 meters).
• 40 feet x 30 feet (12 meters x 9 meters) island: each 30-foot (9-meter) side of the booth must have visibility for a minimum of 6 feet (1.83 meters).
Each 40-foot (12-meter) side of the booth must have visibility for a minimum of 8 feet (2.44 meters).
No full solid walls are allowed on the external boundaries (aisles) of the booth space. Exhibitors may use clear acrylic or similar material to create a wall that will allow for line of sight from one booth to the next. The maximum height for any island booth space is 16 feet (5 meters) based on written approval from an ISMRM representative.
Preliminary Floor Plan
The exhibition portion 2025 ISMRM & ISMRT Annual Meeting will be held in the level 1 Kamehameha Exhibit Hall at the Hawai’i Convention Center, from 11-15 May 2025. The Technical Exhibition and Poster Hall (Digital & Traditional Paper Posters) will be located on Level 1 in the Kamehameha Exhibit Hall and, again, intertwined. When you enter the Technical Exhibition Hall, you are entering a hall that will incorporate exhibition booths and posters crisscrossing the hall.
Our rules and regulations have been created to give each exhibitor the most effective use of rented space. Space dimensions shown on floor plans are from centerline of booth equipment, such as side rails and/or back wall. Exhibit structures must be constructed to allow sufficient tolerance on each side for this equipment and for utility service at the rear of the booth.
Installation & Dismantling of Exhibit Space
Admittance to the Exhibition Hall during booth installation and dismantling times is limited to exhibitor personnel and ISMRM-approved External Appointed Contractor personnel employed by the exhibiting company. Under no circumstance will meeting attendees and guests be allowed in the exhibit area outside of the designated Exhibition Hall hours.
Booth personnel will be allowed to hand-carry their own materials into and out of the exhibit facility. The use or rental of dollies, flat trucks, and other mechanical equipment, however, is not permitted. ISMRM’s Freight Logistics Manager and Meeting Contractor will control access to the loading docks to provide a safe and orderly move-in/out. Unloading or reloading at the dock from any and all contracted carriers will be handled by the Meeting Contractor and Freight Logistics Manager.
Safety vests and close-toed shoes are required for all individuals occupying the Exhibition Hall during booth installation and dismantling periods.
Standing on chairs, tables, or other rental furniture is prohibited. This furniture is not engineered to support your standing weight. ICS and ISMRM cannot be responsible for injuries or falls caused by the improper use of this furniture. If assistance is required in assembling your booth, please request help at the ICS exhibitor services desk located in the Exhibition Hall.
