The Vendor Fair is a lively one night event that takes place in a “contained” environment (it takes place in one large room). Conference attendees mingle with Practitioner Partners and other vendors who showcase their services and products and get the maximum exposure to a targeted audience (including key decision makers from COST member companies). Lots of food, drinks and laughs – a very good time!! The Vendor Fair sponsorship includes a customizable six foot table (designed as you like) with power provided – perfect for showcasing your brand. For more details on Sponsorships or Vendor Fairs, please contact Steve Rosander. REGIONAL MEETINGS COST hosts approximately 30 regional meetings a year. These meetings are typically half-day to three quarter day in length and are held in various cities around the country. Two COST Practitioner Partners are invited to sponsor and present at each meeting. Attendees are industry tax professionals from both COST member and non-COST member companies. If you are interested in sponsoring a Regional Meeting or would like additional information, please contact Tiffany Frazier. COST EVENTS MOBILE APP All COST events are hosted on our mobile event App, COST Events. COST loads all event materials onto the App providing attendees with easy access to the event schedule, session materials, speaker and attendee information, breaking announcements, twitter and more. A Practitioner Partner who sponsors the App at an event is given prominent display within the App and in all meeting collateral before and at the event.
