1.6. Can I book multiple booths?

Each company is allowed to book one booth. If you are in need of a larger booth than those available through our online platform, you may do the following:

1. Request authorization from the IMCAS Industry department to book two booths.
• If you have not received authorization and book two booths, the second order will automatically be canceled and only the first order will be taken into account.
2. Next, you require two different accounts, with two different emails, on IMCAS.com.
• Make sure the Industry department has both of these accounts registered under your company file. This ensures that you don’t experience any delays on your booking starting date, based on the PPS criteria.
3. Place an order for a booth with the first account and order the next booth with your second company account.

1.7. What is the sponsorship level required?

Within an exhibition, some booths require a sponsorship level while some do not. When a booth space requires sponsorship level, it can only be booked when reaching its sponsorship level. Sponsorship level required is based on its booth size and its location.

The minimum “sponsorship level required” refers to the minimum investment that must be reached to be able to confirm the checkout with the booth you have selected.

For example, if you were to select a booth that requires a sponsorship level “Classic” at the IMCAS World Congress 2019, you would need to reach an investment of € 9 000 or over to book it.

To reach the sponsorship level the following is taken into consideration:

• The price of the booth
• Products from the product catalog

A certain amount of badges are automatically included depending on the sponsorship level

Please note that depending on the IMCAS congress the booth construction might be taken into consideration within the sponsorship level, however in the majority cases this is a complementary product and is additional to the sponsorship.

1.8. Where can I see who are our booth neighbors?

Directly on the exhibition map here. Place your mouse over the red booths to see which company has reserved it under "Booked by".

---

1.9. How can I see who else is a sponsor?

Simply refer to the 'Sponsor List' on the website here.

Once you are on the Sponsor List you can:

• Organize companies by alphabetical order, country, and sponsor level
• Type in the name of the company you are looking for in the search bar

4. Sponsored Activities

4.1. What about performing a live demonstration?

To perform a demonstration on a living patient, three conditions must be met (practitioner, product, venue):

CONDITION 1. the PRACTITIONER performing the medical act should:

• 1. either be Board Certified within the country where the congress is hosted, or
• 2. obtain a temporary license through the National Ministry of Health
  > For France: according to the French Medical Council, physicians that practice in a country member of the European Union, the EEE, or Switzerland, can obtain a temporary permit to practice in France. Refer to the process to obtain temporary license in France here. For more information go to https://www.conseil-national.medecin.fr/node/1499

Regarding international speakers arriving to each congress from all over the world, they are certainly an asset for international conferences like IMCAS. IMCAS has a long tradition of welcoming them and continues to accept them readily. Should your company wish to invite international speakers who are not locally board certified, please follow the steps below:

1. Create a team of two doctors: a locally Board Certified doctor and the international doctor your company wishes to involve
2. The latter will not "perform" the demonstration by him/herself, but instead act as the "partner" of the locally Board Certified doctor.
   NOTA: asking the assistance of local doctors facilitates the process of selecting patients and following up with them professionally afterward.

Keep in mind that all doctors participating in a live demonstration, must have their own insurance.

CONDITION 2. the PRODUCT or device used should be registered or legally authorized by the local authorities within the country.
NOTA: Live demonstrations of procedures/products/devices dealing with PRP or vulvovaginal treatments are strictly forbidden and can't be performed during IMCAS congresses.

CONDITION 3. the VENUE where the live demo is performed follows the following rules:

1. for BOOTH space:

   Live treatments are not permitted on booths. A demonstration on a booth is permitted only if there is no penetration of the product and/or no action of the device used. Therefore, only light cosmetic treatments dedicated to the surface of the skin are allowed, after prior approval of the Scientific Committee.
   Should you want to organize demonstrations during the congress, we advise you to book a training lab -> click here to view the product.

2. for SYMPOSIA or LIVE DEMONSTRATIONS:

   Live treatments are to be performed
   
   • either in a medical establishment (cabinet, clinic or hospital room) via transmission
   • or at the congress venue itself in a secured medicalized area via transmission (medicalized by our team: nurses, water points, control of inputs/outputs, etc…). In this case "medicalized room" schedules may be assigned. Learn more about "medicalized room" time-slots here.
     NOTA: Access to the medicalized room/area is restricted to the physician, patient, and one company representative

3. for TRAINING LAB:

   Under all circumstances there can be a maximum of 10-15 people in the Training Lab at all times.
   In France: live treatments can be performed in the LAB room given prior approval of the Scientific Committee. Learning Objectives, Practitioner, and Product are to be filled in through the Company IMCAS platform for submission to the Committee. Authorization may be refused.
   Elsewhere: live treatments are to be performed
   • either in a medical establishment (cabinet, clinic or hospital room) via transmission
   • or at the congress venue itself in a secured medicalized area via transmission (medicalized by our team: nurses, water points, control of inputs/outputs, etc…). In this case "medicalized room" schedules may be assigned.

Please note that for any live demonstration, the company is entirely responsible from A to Z of its performance. IMCAS is not to be held responsible for any step of the procedure.

4.3. How about patient(s) to be treated during live demonstration?

a. Patient recruitment
Here are the three vital points when recruiting patients for your demonstration:

1. - Patient(s) can be find or hire through:
   > a professional agency
   > (Optimal choice) the doctor whom you are working with for the live demonstration (refer to section 4.1. What about performing a live demonstration? of the FAQ) assists you in locating a patient and by following up with them professionally after the procedure.
2. We strongly advise you to have more than one patient for each of the procedures you are planning to perform.

Therefore, it is best that the supporting company is in charge of hiring the patient(s) for their sponsored activities.

b. Patient logistics
Regarding the logistics of patient participation during a congress:

• Patients must sign a patient consent form onsite which should be given to our staff in the medicalized treatment room BEFORE the session begins.
• Your patient, accompanied by one of your company representatives, should retrieve his/her badge from the dedicated “Speaker/Faculty badge” line at the Welcome Desk on the day of your live demo.
• Your patient is automatically provided with a “patient badge" allowing him/her to have access to the exhibition hall and the treatment room the day of the live demo.
• A patient preparation room (within walking distance from the medicalized treatment room) is provided complimentary for all live demonstration to be performed in the congress venue.
• This room is equipped with multiple beds and to be shared among all concerned parties. Each party may utilise the space a maximum of 30-min prior and after the procedure.

You may change your scheduled time-slot depending on availability which you can refer to here:

• Symposia Planning
  Nota: pay attention to room capabilities (there are various of them) before requesting a change.

4.5. What is treatment room assigned time-slots for symposia?

Depending on the corresponding legal environment of the congress location, our Scientific Committee may require that live demonstrations during a symposium be performed in a medicalized establishment, either a third entity (e.g. a clinic, hospital room) or a cabinet, treatment room at the congress venue and broadcasted from it to the conference room where the audience are seated.

Should the company choose to perform their live demo in the treatment room at the congress venue provided by IMCAS complimentary, a 30-min time-slot of the treatment room is assigned for each symposium.

5. Educational grants

5.1. Who chooses the speakers of an educational grant session?

Educational grant sessions are eligible for medical continuous education credits. Therefore, they differ from a sponsored session as they have to comply with the rules of accrediting organizations. This is why it is the IMCAS Scientific Board that makes the final decision regarding content and lecturers for these sessions.

---

5.2. What is an "Educational Grant"?

An Educational Grant is a form of unconditioned financial support. The funds are allocated to cover specific costs of the activity that are related to the provision of a balanced, accurate and scientifically independent activity.

Grants are the way for the industry to support unbiased evidence-based medicine, since the scientific content is entirely developed and chosen by the Scientific Committee. In turn, due to their objective and protected status, these sessions are eligible for CME Accreditation.
