SPONSOR Q&A
Attendees
Q - Is the attendee list available?
A - AWS does not release or distribute event attendee lists pre or post show. Although a new benefit offered last
year, failure to adhere to privacy and CAN-SPAM regulations by partners has forced AWS to remove this benefit.
Q - Does AWS sell any attendee lists?
A - AWS does not distribute or sell the names and contact information of attendees as this would be in direct
violation of the AWS privacy policy.
Q - What is the anticipated number of attendees?
A - 17,000
Q - What are the demographics of the attendees?
A - You can view the attendee demographics in the prospectus: https://s3-us-west2.amazonaws.com/reinvent2015/AWS+reInvent+2015+Sponsorship+Prospectus.pdf. The list of attending
companies is not captured or distributed.
Q - Will executives, sales reps, staff members, etc. be able to enter the meeting rooms outside of the expo
hall if they do not have a badge?
A - Those who are not attending the conference and do not have either a full conference or expo only badge will
not be able to use the room. If there are people who are not wearing badges, security or those AWS employees
with all-access badges will be escorting them to registration where they will need to claim their badge or leave the
event.

Booth Selection & Floor Plan
Q - I have submitted payment for my sponsorship. When will I receive an invite to select my booth space?
A - Selections will take place once a week. Sponsors who have paid their sponsorship invoices the prior week will
be invited to select their booth space. Booth selection priority will then be by signed contract date.
Q - What is the difference between the different colored 10x10 spaces?
A - Each 10x10 colored space represents a different sponsorship level.
Green - Silver or Titanium (Mouse over the space to see which sponsorship level it is reserved for)
Yellow - Booths already assigned
Please make sure to select a booth space that corresponds with your sponsorship level.
Q - Why do I have to provide so many booth selections?
A - Booth selections are completed in rounds (rounds meaning we invite as many as 10+ sponsors per
sponsorship level at one time to select their space each week). In order to make sure every sponsor in each
round receives a space, we ask everyone to select as many as 10 or more spaces. Depending on when you
signed your contract, you will receive an assignment for the booth on your list that is still available after sponsors
in queue ahead of you have finished selecting their space.

To automatically assign yourself to a registration package, use the drop down list and select the

email immediate. (This is the recommended method)
Send Invitation:
When selecting this method you are NOT automatically registering them, instead you are sending them
an email invitation to register themselves. You can see whether or not they have completed the
registration based on what is showing in the "Status" section. If they have not completed the registration,
it will show "Email Sent". If they have completed the registration, it will say "Registered".
Registering for a Paid Pass:
If you will be paying for the pass, please fill out the credit card information that will automatically pop-up
when entering the registrants information and then select "Add Registrant".
If you require the person you are registering to pay for the pass, please enter their formation, ignore the
credit card information, and then select "Send Invitation".

Q - I need to ship items to my meeting room in the expo hall and not my booth. Do I need to label it
differently?
A - Yes, you can use the same addresses as above, but instead using your booth number, please indicate your
company, “MEETING ROOM” instead. ***Please note that you will only have access to your meeting room
during your allotted times, so please do not ship items to your meeting room that you need to access
before you allotted time.
Q - Can I ship my items via FedEx or UPS to the show?
A - It is not recommended that you ship your booth or collateral via carriers such as FedEx or UPS. Shipments
brought in by these carriers will be directed to the hotel’s business center, and will incur additional handling
charges and delays in delivery to your booth space. The same applies to outboard shipping. Please contact T3
Expo to discuss the best and most reliable method of shipping both in and out of the event.
