We are pleased to invite you to exhibit at the USC Gould School of Law Real Estate Law and Business Forum, taking place on Wednesday, March 25, 2009, at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. This annual Forum is attended by well over 400 members of the real estate bar and business community, and may be an excellent forum for displaying your services.
The fee for exhibiting is $1000.00 per exhibitor; space cannot be shared. The fee includes a 6' draped table (table top exhibits only) one chair, and one complimentary luncheon (additional luncheon tickets may be purchased for $75 as indicated on the exhibitor response form). Checks should be made payable to the USC Gould School of Law, and must be received prior to the Forum.
Because exhibitor space is limited, we encourage you to reserve your space as soon as possible.

Exhibit materials may be sent directly to the Millennium Biltmore Hotel. Shipments must be pre-paid and shipped to the address below.

You will be responsible for setting up your exhibit and may begin doing so at 6:15 a.m. on Tuesday, March 25. Please allow ample time for setting up your exhibit. Your exhibit must be set up no later than 7:30 a.m., as we expect our attendees to begin arriving when registration opens at that time. The program begins at 9:00 a.m. As a reminder, there is only one exhibiting organization per table. All exhibits must be tabletop only. Additionally, no signs and/or banners may be affixed to the wall.
Equipment Furnished
We will provide a 6' draped rectangular table and one chair for each exhibitor. The tables may not be moved from their assigned locations due to fire regulations.
The hotel can accommodate most requests for special equipment, telephone and electrical requirements. Please note that it is the exhibitor's responsibility to pay for these services. However, there is no charge if you require an electrical outlet (we do suggest you bring a power strip). Your requests must be made no later than Monday, March 9. Please contact Caron Haley in the Catering Services Department at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel if you have any special needs, (213) 612-1552 or by email at chaley@mill-usa.com.
