Beware of Scams/List of Approved Vendors
Every year we receive reports of scams going around the convention/events industry, contacting exhibitors disguised as third party housing groups, mail houses, show daily magazines, and other service companies trying to sell their services for the show.
We are working exclusively with GEMS (Gilbert Exposition Management Services) as our appointed general services contractor and Maritz (formerly CDS) for our registration/lead retrieval needs.
The Automate Show works exclusively with OnPeak as our housing partner.
For a full list of approved Automate vendors, please look in the Exhibitor Services Manual. If you are contacted by a company that is not on this list, please disregard their service request. In the past exhibitors have reported that callers have threatened to cancel their booth space if they do not comply. Please feel confident that your booth space is safely being held unless you are contacted directly by a member of A3.
The Automate Show does not have a show daily magazine. If you are contacted by a company claiming to sell ads in the Automate Show Daily, be aware that they are not affiliated with our show in any way and the magazine is not allowed in Huntington Place or in the Automate Show Hall.
If you have any questions regarding the validity of a vendor, please do not hesitate to contact the Automate Show Headquarters at [email protected].
