The Exhibitor Service Kit will be sent out in September by Alliance Expositions, when you can begin placing orders for your booth. As the I.C.E. Exchange will be held at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, the exhibit hall will be carpeted so you will not be required to provide flooring for your booth. You will have the option to order additional carpeting and flooring through the kit. Shipping information and order deadlines will also be included in the kit.

I.C.E. will be utilizing the Exhibitor Harvester and Mobile App by Cadmium. The Exhibitor Harvester is a portal where you can update company information, add team members, and upload files such as your logo and brochure (virtual bag insert).  If you need support accessing the Harvester or need to add a team member, please contact meetings@credentialingexcellence.org.

Access the Harvester

I.C.E. recognizes Sustaining and Affiliate members who refer new members (any category). This is a terrific way to support the membership growth of I.C.E. while earning beneficial points to use. For each referral who joins I.C.E., the Sustaining/Affiliate member will earn points to be used in the booth selection process for the following year’s I.C.E. Exchange (those recruited in 2024 will earn points for 2025 booth selection). Points will be tabulated and reported out by I.C.E. staff by the deadline of February 20, 2025. Please contact the I.C.E. team with questions info@credentialingexcellence.org.
