New Plenary Sessions - New to the Technical Program are three Plenary Sessions focusing on three key international industries located in the Southwest and Pacific Coast Region. In these sessions, the first presentation will be a Mini-Keynote address by an OEM or Product Maker. They will present the vision for that industry and emerging technologies over the next five years. Then engineers from all over the world will present new and advanced solutions that support the technology presented by the OEM. IMAPS 2006 will hold one of these sessions each day to bring in a new and different set of people each day. The New Plenary Sessions are as follows:

Bio-medical will focus on technologies
for medical devices such as implantable devices and diagnostic machines and imaging.

Military and Homeland Security will include the latest technologies for all types of radar systems, bio-detection systems, weapons, etc.

New Exhibitor Benefits - Expanded Advertising and Public Relations Reach - IMAPS will expand the reach and frequency of its advertising over previous campaigns and will include advertisements or announcements in both print and electronic media. IMAPS will also implement a press relations campaign to motivate attendance from readers of all electronics industry periodicals, with more focused attention on editors from Packaging, Wireless, RF, Military Electronics and Medical Device trade press.

Bingo Program - This year, IMAPS is offering a Bingo program where the attendees can win prizes for visiting more of the exhibitors. This will bring more qualified people to your booth. New

Exhibitors will be invited to donate a prize to the program. Attendees will receive a card to take with them to 16 exhibitors whom they are interested in visiting. The exhibitor stamps the card, and once the card is full, the attendee drops the card in the raffle bin to win prizes.

Direct Mail Campaigns - 50,000 Advance Programs will be mailed to previous IMAPS attendees, IMAPS members, and other targeted demographic lists.

Mailings, e-mails and personal phone calls will be focused on attracting participants from all disciplines of the microelectronics industry.

IMAPS 2006 is making every effort to ensure that we bring the customers you want to see into the exhibit hall. We offer the following co-marketing opportunities:

Sponsorships — Increase your visibility! Sponsor a coffee break or a reception. Sponsoring an event shows your commitment to the customer’s industry. IMAPS will furnish signage throughout the Show site recognizing your contribution.

The 11th Annual IMAPS Golf Classic will be held to benefit the Sidney J. Stein Educational Foundation. Donations to and special sponsorships of this event are a superb way to ensure the future of a worthy student who will soon be an active contributor to our industry.

50% deposit is due with the booth application. The balance will be due on July 15, 2006. Exhibitors will be mailed an invoice following space assignment indicating the balance due. Failure to pay the balance by July 15, 2006, may result in reassignment of your booth location or cancellation of the contract.

New Booth Features!
