Exhibitor & Sponsorship

The Kentucky Society for Technology in Education (KySTE) is excited to invite you to exhibit at the 2025 KySTE Conference, Kentucky’s premier education technology event. This conference and trade show will take place at the Kentucky International Convention Center (KICC) in Louisville, KY, from March 12-14, 2025. Exhibits will be open on Wednesday and Thursday (March 12th & 13th) during the conference.

Our previous conference was a tremendous success, attracting over 1,900 attendees and featuring 180 vendor booths. Given the high demand, our exhibit hall typically sells out early, so we encourage you to reserve your space as soon as possible.

KySTE’s mission is to bring together educators, administrators, technology professionals, college faculty and staff, public and academic librarians, business and industry trainers, industry representatives, and policymakers. This diverse group gathers to discuss, learn, and share the best strategies for planning, implementing, and using education technology in schools across Kentucky.

Why Exhibit at KySTE '25?

• Reach a Targeted Audience: Connect with key decision-makers and influencers in the education technology sector.
• Showcase Your Innovations: Present your latest products and services to a highly engaged audience.
• Network and Collaborate: Build valuable relationships with educators, administrators, and technology professionals.

We look forward to your participation in making the 2025 KySTE Conference a success. Secure your spot today and join us in advancing education technology in Kentucky!

KySTE '25 Outreach Sponsorship - SOLD OUT!

If you didn't get a chance to partner with us this year, we hope you will revisit the thought in support of our students next year! 

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.)

While KySTE does not have a presenting hotel sponsor, we do have several hotel partners that have been able to reserve room blocks in support of the conference. Please reach out to the following hotels to support your accommodation needs: 

• Hyatt Regency Downtown Louisville
• Marriott Downtown Louisville
• Springhill by Marriott Louisville
• Fairfield by Marriott Louisville

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
