The American Society of Breast Surgeons will retain the following fees from booth payments if a company cancels or reduces booth space: $100 per booth on or before February 14, 2022; 50% of booth cost on or before February 28, 2022; 100% after February 28, 2022. The retained rental fee shall be liquidated damages for the direct and indirect costs incurred by management for organizing, setting up, and providing space for exhibitor, and losses and additional expenses caused by exhibitor’s withdrawal. Reduction of booth space may require Exhibitor to be relocated, at the discretion of show management. ASBrS has the right to resell any cancelled or reduced space. An Exhibitor may not resell, lease or sublet their booth space. Cancellations and reduction of space are required in writing. Email Jane Conway, Industry Relations Coordinator, at jconway@breastsurgeons.org.

Booth space assignment will take place during the week of January 24, 2022. To be included in the initial assignment, ASBrS must receive your completed online application and payment in full, no later than January 10, 2022. Booth space will be assigned based on earned priority points and proximity to competitors per the exhibitor’s request. Booth applications received after this date will be accepted on a space-available basis.

Priority points are based on your company’s financial support and donations from May 2000 through December 31, 2021. Additional support of the Annual Meeting and/or the Society is not a requirement for exhibiting. Points are awarded as follows:

  • 1 point for every $1000 received for Annual Meeting exhibit space
  • 1 point for every $1000 received for Annual Meeting and regional course sponsorship
  • 1 point for each machine, piece of equipment, device donated to use in a workshop (not including stereotactic breast biopsy) at Annual Meeting and regional course
  • 5 points for each stereotactic breast biopsy machine donated to use at Annual Meeting and regional course
  • 1 point for each applications technician participating in a pre-meeting workshop
  • 1 point for every $1000 given to the Society outside of the Annual Meetings and regional courses
  • 1 point maximum per company when one or more of their representatives attend the Exhibitor Forum
  • 1 point per company who completed the exhibitor survey

The earliest dated exhibit application with full payment will have preference if companies have reached equal point totals. Also considered are such factors as preferred placement away from or near another exhibitor. Please note that placement according to such preference is not guaranteed. Priority points expire after two consecutive inactive years of support, donation and/or exhibiting.

10'x10' = 100 ft2 = $6,500
10'x20' = 200 ft2 = $13,000
10'x30' = 300 ft2 = $19,500
20'x20' = 400 ft2 = $36,000
20'x30' = 600 ft2 = $54,000
20'x40' = 800 ft2 = $72,000

Payment in full is due upon ASBrS approval of your booth application. Deposits are not accepted. Booths will not be held or reserved without full payment.

Booth applications submitted by January 10 will be included in the Priority Placement.

Beware of Unauthorized Service Providers—It has come to our attention that several exhibitors, attendees, and members have been contacted by unauthorized companies promising services relating to ASBrS 2022 including housing vendors, attendee list rental services, Internet providers, printed exhibitor directories and lead retrieval services. These companies are not authorized to offer services and are not affiliated in any way with the American Society of Breast Surgeons or its programs. The following list includes the only vendors that are approved by ASBrS and authorized as an official partner. Exclusive service providers are indicated by a red asterisk " * ":

  • Official Decorator/General Contractor: Freeman
  • Official Housing Provider: Atlas Meetings & Travel
  • Official Audiovisual: Entertainment Production Services
  • Official Electric: Entertainment Production Services*
  • Official Internet: Cox Communications*
  • Official Booth Cleaning: Freeman
  • Official Telecommunications: Entertainment Production Services*
  • Official Security: TBD
  • Official Lead Retrieval Provider: Registration Control Systems
  • Official Attendee List: ASBrS Staff Office ONLY*

Please be aware that no company is authorized to sell the ASBrS membership or meeting attendee lists and lists offered by anyone other than the American Society of Breast Surgeons are fraudulent. These are scams and no one in the Society opts in to allow their email address to be distributed. If you receive such a solicitation, we suggest you do not purchase since the list was obtained without permission. Your company could be blacklisted as a SPAMMER if you use the list.
