Exhibitor-Appointed Contractors (EAC)
All Exhibitors using the services of an EAC are responsible for ensuring that the EAC conforms to the regulations included in the Exhibitor Services Manual.
If you are utilizing the services and the materials of an outside contractor or a display house, all labor must be performed by I-X Center personnel. The I-X Center must approve the use of all Exhibitor Appointed Contractors.
