Exhibitor Information

The Greater Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Apartment Association’s 2022 Trade Show is scheduled for Tuesday, March 15 at Sharonville Convention Center.  

Here are the top six reasons you won’t want to miss out! But act soon! The rate of $800 for a booth will expire on Tuesday, February 15! After that, the booth price will increase to $900 per booth!
  1.  Free Food Returns! Due to your feedback, the GCNKAA will host free food for one hour during the 2022 trade show. This will include carving stations, fruit and vegetables and cheese displays. Food sponsorships are available to all members for $300 each.
  2. The Invitation Only VIP Preview Hour. Building on 2021, we will be sending personal invitations to the top three (3) key decision makers at each owner and property management company that is a member of the Greater Cincinnati Northern Kentucky Apartment Association. This personal invitation will allow each of them to attend a private preview of the trade show from 4 pm to 5 pm. Complete with free food and free beverages, this offers you a more personal time to meet and greet your potential new customers as well as conduct business with current customers without the interruption from other attendees of the trade show. 
  3. Bigger Booths. This year the booths remain 8’ x 10’. All booths will be the same size and include pipe and drape, one table, two chairs, booth sign and wi-fi. Premier booths near the food area are an additional fee and are not eligible for the early bird discount. Others booths near the food are reserved for VIP Sponsors. Electric, carpet and additional tables and chairs can be ordered separately through Sharonville Convention Center or Academy Rentals. See inside the exhibitor information kit for more details.
  4. Completely Renovated Facility.  The Sharonville Convention Center is Cincinnati’s premier facility for sustainable, world-class meetings, conventions, banquets, trade shows, and public events. The Center offers contemporary meeting spaces and unparalleled customer service, as well as an award-winning catering team and menus prepared by a renowned chef.
  5. Even Larger Education Rooms. By creating more education seminars that will accommodate more students, we can guarantee a larger attendance of property managers, leasing agents and maintenance technicians when the trade show opens. At the end of these seminars, seminar attendees will simply flow onto the trade show floor where you have the opportunity to talk with each and every one.
  6. More Sponsorship Opportunities. By creating new sponsorship levels, we enable you to get more bang for your sponsorship buck. Whether through signage, verbal recognition or company listing on gcnkaa.org and in the Apartment Advantage, we will find a way for you to get involved whether you have one employee or one thousand. We have also added several more benefits to the VIP Sponsorship including premier booth space. Watch for more information to follow regarding sponsorship opportunities. Sponsorships range from $300 for a logo or food sponsorship to $1000 for VIP Sponsorship.

TRADE SHOW ADMISSION POLICY FOR 2022
The GCNKAA Associate Council who sponsors the Trade Show has debated the policy of non-exhibiting/non-sponsoring Associate Members and their employees at the 2022 GCNKAA Trade Show and has adopted the following policy.

It has been determined that in order for the significant investment in booth space or sponsorships to be of the highest value and integrity to the exhibitors and sponsors, that Associate Members, their employees and staff, who are not otherwise exhibiting at the Trade Show or a sponsor of the Trade Show, shall not be permitted on the Trade Show floor at any time during the Trade Show. This policy does not apply to any attendance for any Primary or Honorary member of the GCNKAA. The Associate Council requests that exhibiting vendors, GCKNAA Members and staff who witness persons employed by any company who is not a GCNKAA Member, or an Associate Member who is not a sponsor or exhibitor with a proper exhibitor or sponsor name tag, to report such actions to the GCNKAA admission table at the entrance to the Trade Show floor. Any violation of this policy, will result in an invoice to the non-exhibiting, non-sponsoring Associate Member equal to the fee of one (1) 8 x 10 booth submitted to the offending Associate Member Organization. The offending individual or company shall also be banned from all future GCNKAA activities, meeting, or other events, until said invoice is paid in full to the GCNKAA and posted.

This policy, in fairness to all, is extended to all Primary Members, such that the Primary Members are specifically requested not to violate this policy by bringing as guests of the Primary Member any person employed by a non-exhibiting/non-sponsoring Associate Member or any other business without the express written approval of the Associate Council.
