SIR Corporate Priority Points Program

SIR wishes to reward the dedication of specific companies by allowing them priority access to select a booth location for the SIR Annual Scientific Meeting.

In order to qualify for this opportunity, a company must achieve a minimum of 35 priority points based on the below criteria. The prioritization of appointment scheduling is also based on the following criteria:

• Exhibit history (see below)
• Previous meeting’s booth size
• Previous meeting’s sponsorship/advertising purchases
• Corporate Ambassador Program (CAP) level of support

Exhibit history

• Four priority points will be given for each year of exhibiting at an SIR Annual Meeting. Maximum of 50 points.

Previous booth size

• Booth size is an important logistical consideration for the flow and layout of a floor plan. A floor plan must accommodate electrical access grids and other utilities. In design, larger exhibits must be placed first in the appropriate positions to assure that exhibits of all sizes will have adequate utility access.

For the Priority Points Program, 1 point per 100 sq. ft. will be assigned to companies based on their previous years' exhibit.

Corporate Ambassador Program (CAP)

• The Corporate Ambassador Program (CAP) is a high-impact engagement and recognition program for companies that choose to support SIR’s overall mission. Points will be assigned based on a company’s CAP level of support.

Priority points by level
Vanguard ($500,000+)	60 points
Leader ($250,000+)	40 points
Advocate ($100,000+)	30 points
Associate ($25,000+)	20 points

Advertising purchases

• Companies that advertise with SIR at the Annual Scientific Meeting will be assigned priority points based on a company’s total advertising expenditure. Points will be calculated based on advertising purchases made via the SIR Exhibits and Advertising/Sponsorship Marketplace. Purchases made with other SIR advertising partners/events do not qualify for priority points.

Advertising points by expenditure
$300,000+	50 points
$250,000+	40 points
$150,000+	30 points
$75,000+	20 points
$0-$75,000	10 points
