ADDITIONAL SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
You can elect to broaden the exposure of your company/organization to conference attendees through the add-on sponsorship opportunities. For more information, please review the additional options listed on page 6 of the Sponsorship Brochure.

We are pleased to offer you several different hotel options during Metabolomics 2022 at various price points! Please visit the Hotel Information page on the conference website to book your room. Attendees are responsible for all travel and hotel costs.

INDIVIDUAL CONFERNCE REGISTRATION
All exhibition staff must be registered to attend Metabolomics 2022 and must wear their Conference badge to gain access to the exhibition area. To access the Exhibitor Portal and take advantage of the discounted and complimentary registrations that come with your sponsorship package, please refer to the "Welcome" email sent to the Sponsor Coordinator.

LEAD MANAGEMENT
As prospects visit your booth, use the conference app to scan the QR code on the back of their badge to collect contact information. The conference app will be available up to 1 week before the conference. The Sponsors connected to your booth through the Exhibitor Portal will have two additional buttons ("Scan Leads", and "View Leads") that attendees will not have access to. To scan your prospects, click on “Scan Leads”. Your camera will open for the QR code to be scanned. Once scanned, if you have created mandatory lead questions through the Exhibitor Portal, those will be viewable at this time. After answering any mandatory lead questions you may have created, the contact will be reflected under “View Leads”. Complete contact information and an export will be available in your Exhibitor Portal under “Collected Leads”. To receive screenshots of the app for a more helpful visual, please email info@metabolomics2022.org.

Lead management profile questions (ex. When do you plan to purchase? Or, What industry are you in?) can be created by your organization. Once the QR code is scanned, a list of custom questions will appear. You will record the answers directly in the conference app. A report of all leads can be downloaded through the Exhibitor Portal. Please use your custom Exhibitor Portal token link, click on Lead Management, then add the questions where indicated. If you cannot find your token link, email info@metabolomics2022.org and one will be sent to you again.
