Press

If you're planning to attend and cover IPC Midwest Conference & Exhibition in 2012 as a registered member of the media, you've come to the right spot!

Registered members of the press have access to the exhibition, technical conference sessions (lunch is not included), opening session and standards development meetings (excluding “invitation only” meetings). Each supporting publication is entitled to receive one copy of the Technical Conference Proceedings CD.

PLEASE NOTE: Press are not allowed in any meetings marked “by invitation” or “closed.” Press may be asked to leave other meetings where particularly sensitive information is being discussed. Your cooperation is appreciated.

IPC's Media Accreditation Policy

Sales, advertising, public relations and market research staff, business analysts, publishers and technical consultants are not eligible for press credentials.

Members of the press are not allowed in meetings marked “by invitation” and may be asked to leave any other meetings with sensitive content. We appreciate your cooperation.

IPC requires proof of applicant’s professional status, including titled business card, publication, and applicant’s name listed in an editorial capacity.

Trade and Business Publications

Editorial staff must provide a business card with an editorial title and a current issue’s masthead listing their name.
