EXHIBITORS CODE OF CONDUCT The BVNA acknowledges that the success of the Congress can only be maintained through a careful balance of CPD, the success of the Exhibition and enjoyment for delegates and exhibitors alike. The BVNA therefore has the following exhibitor’s code of conduct guidelines: CONSIDERATION FOR FELLOW EXHIBITORS The Exhibition is open for 3 days of intense and hard work for all exhibitors. BVNA would ask that when planning demonstrations or attractions on your stand that you give consideration to other exhibitors, especially those in close proximity to your stand. BVNA reserves the right to ask any exhibitor behaving in an inconsiderate manner, to leave the Exhibition. LEAFLETING BVNA have a clear policy not to allow non-exhibitors permission to canvass either delegates or exhibitors. Anybody found in the exhibition handing out promotional materials etc. who is not an exhibitor will be asked to leave. We would be extremely grateful if exhibitors could notify the BVNA staff immediately if they suspect that someone is breaching these conditions. BVNA would also like to remind attending exhibitors that leafleting within common areas around the venue is not permitted. With so many companies exhibiting it is not possible to allow companies to place leaflets within these areas and appreciate your cooperation with this matter. STAND MANNING The exhibition opening times are clearly laid out in the Exhibitor’s Pack. Stands are required to be manned at all times whilst the exhibition is open to delegates. STAND SHARING Exhibiting companies are reminded that stand sharing is not permitted and only the company contracted for the stand may advertise from within it. EXHIBITORS BADGES & LECTURE BADGES Please ensure that these are used for bona-fide company members only as checks will be made. If someone is found using the badges fraudulently, the person will be asked to leave the Congress and action will be taken against the company concerned. DO NOT accept requests from representatives of other companies or individuals for Exhibitor Badges. BVNA would be appreciative if exhibitors could be vigilant and report anyone they believe to be using badges fraudulently (in particular non-exhibiting companies using delegate badges). LIVE ANIMALS No live animals are permitted in the exhibition hall, with the exception of personal assistance dogs accompanying a disabled delegate or exhibitor and those used during organised events held by BVNA. BVNA would ask that exhibitors do not allow animals to be used for promotional purposes.
