MARKETING PROSPECTUS

2017 NATIONAL CONFERENCE APRIL 26-29, 2017 | HYATT REGENCY MINNEAPOLIS | MINNEAPOLIS, MN

Dear PENS Partner, The planning for our PENS 2017 National Conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota from April 26-29, 2017 is underway! We are making special plans to celebrate PENS 30th Anniversary. We had great feedback from the 2016 National Conference in Denver thanks to the support of our many partners and we anticipate next year will be even better. We are pleased to have this pediatric endocrinology nursing conference available for not only novice, but experienced pediatric endocrine and diabetes nurses. We are requesting your support for this year to continue to make this conference a success.

Please review the enclosed materials and main sponsorship opportunities available for the 2017 National Conference. We value your support of the PENS conference as it is a key factor to help us meet our mission of providing members with resources to advance pediatric endocrinology nursing, in order to meet the needs of the patient. If there are other sponsorship ideas for the PENS 2017 National Conference or opportunities throughout the year that you would like to discuss, please contact us directly so we can explore this further. If you have any questions or needs, please contact us at 913-2228657 or by email at PENS@kellencompany.com. I am looking forward to working with you this coming year and having our members hear more about you throughout the upcoming conference in Minneapolis.

Exhibitors are advised to carry special insurance to cover exhibit material against damage and loss, and public liability insurance against injury to the person or property of others.

18. Cancellation or Termination of Exhibition. In the event that the premises where the exhibition is to be held shall, in the sole determination of exhibit management, become unfit or unavailable for occupancy, or shall be substantially interfered with, by reason of picketing, strike, embargo, injunction, act of war, act of God, fire or state of emergency declared by any government agency or by reason of any municipal, state or federal law or regulation or by reason of any other occurrence beyond the control of exhibit management, exhibit management may cancel or terminate the exhibition. In the event of such cancellation or termination, the exhibitor waives any and all claims the exhibitor might have against exhibit management for damages or expenses and agrees to accept in complete settlement and discharge of all claims against exhibit management the exhibitor’s prorated share of the total amount paid by all exhibitors less all costs and expenses incurred by exhibit management in connection with the exhibition, including a reserve for future claims and expenses in connection therewith. In case exhibit management shall for any reason determine to cancel or terminate the exhibition, the exhibitor waives all claims the exhibitor might have against exhibit management for damages or expenses and agrees to accept in complete satisfaction and discharge of all claims against exhibit management a refund of all amounts paid by the exhibitor to exhibit management in accordance with this agreement.
