OUTBOARDING. Outboarding is defined as any non-permanent exhibit, demonstration, event, or branded activation that lasts for more than one day during CES and outside of contracted space with CTA. This includes events at Las Vegas hotel suites, meeting rooms, ballrooms, restaurants, clubs, etc. A company is also considered an outboarder if it has contracted space with CTA but contracts directly with another Las Vegas venue for space (for more than one day) that exceeds the net square footage (NSF) contracted with CTA. Outboarding violates CES policy and the International Association of Exhibitions and Events (IAEE) guidelines. When CES determines that outboarding has occurred, CTA will enforce the rule against the participating company and may impose penalties for violations. It is the CTA Board policy that outboarding companies are subject to sanctions that start with the loss of priority points and for those who are CTA members, may include removal from CTA membership. CTA policy on outboarding can be found at xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxxx/CES/media/pdfs/Outboarding-Messaging.pdf.
OUTBOARDING. Exhibitor’s use of hotel suites, private rooms, restaurants, recreational vehicles or other places for exhibits, displays, sales or other official Exhibitor functions during the business hours of the Show is prohibited, without Shoppe Object’s prior written consent. Upon discovery of an outboarding violation, Exhibitor shall be deemed to be in material breach of its obligations hereunder.
OUTBOARDING. Outboarding is a serious violation of CES policy for which there are serious consequences. Any company found to be exhibiting at a non-official CES venue, holding an exhibit demonstration or a display in a Xxxxx County, NV hotel, suite, meeting room, or other non-CES venue during CES, will lose priority points which will affect space selection order at CES in the future. If an Exhibitor (i) cancels its official space and has space in any non-official exhibit venue during the CES dates, and/or (ii) in addition to its CES official space, has space in any non-official exhibit venue during the CES dates with an area equal to or greater than its CES official space, then the Exhibitor will lose all priority points for CES in the future. CTA is unable to detect all instances of outboarding in a given year. However, when CTA determines that outboarding has occurred, CTA will vigorously enforce the rule against outboarding and may impose penalties for past as well as current violations.
OUTBOARDING. “Outboarding” occurs when a company that is eligible to exhibit at the Show does not exhibit, but hosts buyers at a venue away from the Show during set-up days or Show days. Companies that engage in outboarding may be prohibited from exhibiting at the Show for one to three years as determined by the MA and may be subject to loss of seniority points. Registration credentials will not be issued to any employee of a company prohibited from exhibiting due to outboarding. Professional Conduct and Attire.
