Exhibitor & Sponsorship

The Kentucky Society for Technology in Education (KySTE) would like to invite you to exhibit at the 2025 KySTE Conference. The conference and tradeshow will be held at the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC) in Louisville, KY, March 12-14, 2025. Exhibits will be open on Wednesday and Thursday (12th & 13th) during the conference. Our last conference hosted over 1,900 attendees and 180 vendor booths. Our exhibit hall typically sells out early, so don’t wait to reserve your space.
Kentucky’s premier education technology conference promotes the use of technology in Kentucky schools. The mission of KySTE is to bring educators, administrators, technology professionals, college faculty and staff, public and academic librarians, business and industry trainers, industry representatives and policy makers together to think, discuss, listen and learn the best strategies to plan for, implement, and use education technology in our schools.

The KySTE conference is sponsored and managed by The Kentucky Society for Technology in Education (KySTE). KySTE’S mission is to empower the educational community in the Commonwealth of Kentucky to infuse technology as an integral part of the educational process through advocacy and leadership, promoting educational excellence and supporting technology-based innovation. Please visit the KySTE website for more information at www.KySTE.org

Over 1,900 K-12 and higher education, teachers, administrators, technology and media specialists, business leaders, legislators, and state and federal government agencies attended the 2025 conference. The exhibit hall is a highly valued part of the conference. Ample time has been built into the 2025 conference schedule to allow attendees to visit the exhibit hall, including expanded hours during Wednesday’s Grand Opening.

Vendors are welcome to apply to give a presentation at KySTE 2025. The application will be available online beginning in September 2024. The deadline to apply to present is November 1, 2024. Session applications will be reviewed by the KySTE Board for content and relevance, and approval notices will be emailed to you by early-December if your session is approved. Vendor sessions will be given second preference following educator led sessions. Sponsors will be given preference for vendor sessions. In addition, vendors may sponsor a session room (see Sponsorship Opportunities for details and pricing.)

The Hyatt Louisville and Marriott Louisville-Downtown hotels, attached to the Convention Center, will serve as official host hotels for KYSTE 2025. Reservation information will be available soon at kyste.org

You may reserve a booth any time, if the exhibit hall still has availability. Please note that the booths usually sell out prior to the conference. Early reservations are encouraged to secure a good location. There is no printed program deadline, as the entire program is only available via the Conference Mobile App KySTE2025.

Booth space will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Returning vendors and sponsors will be given advanced notice.
Select your booth location by viewing the online floor plan. Please make several booth selections from the floor plan in case your first choice is unavailable. Be sure to indicate if there are any companies that you would prefer to be located away from. Every effort will be made to accommodate your booth preference. Complete the online application to apply. You will receive an emailed confirmation of your booth location and payment receipt or invoice, along with other conference related information. Please be sure to include a valid email address on your application
