Gamification

We know that people love a contest and they love winning prizes even more. Attendees have the opportunity to complete challenges at the AASHE 2024 Conference & Expo to win discounts to future AASHE events. There is nothing you need to do ahead of time to have your organization involved in gamification. 

  • Photo Challenges
    Attendees will be encouraged to take photos with you and of your products or services, so we ask for your support in making this an engaging and fun event for attendees.. Here are the photo challenges specific to the Expo Hall:

    • Take a selfie in the Expo Hall during the Opening Reception with a Sponsor or Exhibitor
    • Capture a photo of a display in the Expo Hall
    • Share a photo of the product or service from the Expo Hall you’re most excited to share with your organization
    • Take a photo of a presentation on the Solutions Stage

  • Points for Badge Scans
    Every time an #AASHE24 attendee has their badge scanned at an Expo Hall table (once per sponsor or exhibitor), they will receive points.

  • Offer a Contest, Activity, or Giveaway (Optional)
    You can offer a contest, activity, or giveaway to attendees at your table. If you choose to do so, please email a short description of your contest, giveaway, or activity to conference@aashe.org for inclusion on Sponsored Programming.

Best Green Practices for the Expo Hall

To ensure we practice what we preach, here are some recommendations for a sustainable table space.

  • Preparation

    • Limit brochures and paper handouts in favor of sending information via email or display electronically at your table (most attendees will review materials at your table and leave them for the next person)
    • Use non-dated event neutral designs so items may be used for future events 
    • Print signage and handouts through FSC-certified printers and/or paper made of post-consumer content
    • Use non-chlorine inks such as vegetable or soy
    • Print and purchase what you can in the host city to reduce shipping. When shipping, only send what you need and avoid packaging peanuts (polystyrene) or other difficult to recycle toxic materials
    • If you wish to hand out swag to attendees, please choose utilitarian items that are sustainably made and recyclable (avoid “brandfill”)
    • Use sustainable and/or recycled materials in your exhibit table

  • During the Expo

    • During set-up, save packaging materials from shipments to reuse at the end of the conference
    • Remember to power off and unplug any electronic items at your table when not in use to save energy

  • During Breakdown

    • During break down, use waste stations to properly recycle any items that cannot be reused
    • Pack up your reusable materials and take them with you to use at future events
    • We will have a donation station to collect useful items you do not wish to ship back such as water bottles, canvas bags, pens or similar handouts.
      • NOTE: All paper handouts should be recycled
