The Union

Exhibition Booths

The Union offers a unique opportunity for exhibitors to showcase their products and services to more than 3,000 participants from all over the world, who are interested in lung health and related topics.

The Union's conference exhibition area also provides excellent opportunities for networking with delegates and other exhibitors. A variety of companies, agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and other health organisations exhibit at the conference.

All sessions of the conference, including coffee breaks and rest areas, Internet area, poster sessions and registration area are situated in the same building as the exhibition area, providing frequent and repeated opportunities for delegates to visit exhibits.

A list of exhibitors is published in the final programme, which is distributed to all delegates, thus increasing exhibitors' exposure.
