FAQs for WiscNet Connections exhibitors

All booths are completely sold out for 2024.

Where are the booths located, and what’s included in each booth space?

Booths are located in the Capitol Promenade and the Grand Terrace. Purple level exhibitors get priority in the Capitol Promenade; Green level exhibitors are assigned booths in the Capitol Promenade on a first-come, first-served basis, after which, additional booths are located in the Grand Terrace. (See floorplan below. The conference takes place in the Madison Ballroom, the Halls of Ideas, and the Meeting Rooms.)

Please note that we do not have a dedicated time for attendees to explore booths and chat with exhibitors — booths are centrally located and attendees use their time during refreshment breaks or presentation sessions to stop by. You and your staff are encouraged to pause and enjoy all meals, which is an excellent (and organic) way to meet people and build relationships.

Each booth space includes an 8' by 30" table, topped and skirted with chairs.

Wi-fi is available for free to all exhibitors and attendees of WiscNet Connections. If you need a wired connection or anything special for your booth, contact Sarah Miller at sarahmiller@wiscnet.net.

What’s your expected attendance? Who comes to this conference?

Our attendance numbers are somewhere between 250-400 attendees.

The WiscNet community is made up of a diverse group of folks from K-12 school districts, technical and private colleges, counties and municipalities, libraries, and other organizations that serve the public sector in Wisconsin. Many of them are technology directors or staff; some of them are CIOs and CISOs; almost all of them are responsible for technology or technology-related duties in their work. They are super smart, forward-thinking people.

Can we get a copy of the attendee list?

Though we field many requests to share our attendee list: we don't.

We’re a membership organization and WiscNet Connections is our members’ conference — they own WiscNet. We are stewards of the event, but their information is not ours to share.

Therefore, we also do not provide a lead scanner – if you want to bring one, you can, but exhibitors generally don’t.

May I ship items to the Monona Terrace?

Yes.

The Monona Terrace asks that you coordinate your shipment so that it arrives no earlier than May 10.

Shipments should be labeled as follows:

WiscNet Connections / [Your company name here]
℅ Monona Terrace Convention Center
1 John Nolen Drive
Madison WI 53703 

Shipments can be picked up at the Monona Terrace receiving area on Level 1. The greeter at the desk at the main entrance can direct you to that location when you arrive. Please note that the Monona Terrace opens at 6:30 am. You will not be able to get into the building earlier than that.

If you have any questions about shipping, contact Meg Statz, Event Services Manager for the Monona Terrace, at mstatz@mononaterrace.com or (608) 261-4008.

I need additional help or have a question that hasn’t been addressed here.
