New this year for SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation: SPIE will provide lead retrieval services to all exhibitors at no additional charge to your exhibit space. We're excited to share this valuable service through the SPIE Conference App. No set-up time required. The app makes it easy and convenient to capture leads all week, even outside the exhibit floor!
IMPORTANT
Be sure to open the SPIE Conference App and confirm you have the leads tab showing before arriving onsite. It is necessary to use the same account used to register for the event. If you do not have the leads tab, email exhibitions@spie.org for assistance.
SPIE does not rent or sell attendee lists from our events. Any offer for an attendee/email list from an SPIE event is a scam.
All of these offers (example below) are fraudulent no matter how official they look. Do not fall for any offer of attendee lists! Protect your bottom line by remaining vigilant and reporting spam.
Read complete warning: Exercise due diligence when approached by vendors not endorsed by SPIE.
