While we had a great run hosting the conference in Banff each year, we have made the switch to Jasper, which is just a bit north in the Canadian Rockies. Based on turnout and feedback, attendees are thrilled with the new location. Travel is a bit easier for those coming from Northern Alberta, so we’ve been fortunate to see an increase in first-time attendees since we moved. Jasper Park Lodge, the facility that hosts the conference, is an absolutely world class venue. It’s a beautiful Rocky Mountain lodge retreat, so to speak. Attendees enjoy being able to get away from the office and discuss common problems with a like-minded international audience.

It doesn’t hurt that the conference is held inside of Canada’s largest National Park. The landscape as you drive through it is a showcase of Mother Nature’s abilities, with the sheer amount of mountains and geographical formations. It truly is a phenomenal place to host a conference.

Certificates of Attendance from attending a conference are available to Full Conference Delegates only. IPEIA’s Full Conference Delegate registration allows for delegates to experience a wide range of learning opportunities from attending Technical Presentations, symposiums, panels, and keynotes, and thereby, enriching their learning experience throughout the four day conference.

Yes, our webinar and conference presenters are provided a complimentary IPEIA membership for the year.

Backup presenters are key to our Technical Program planning.  As a backup presenter, you will be refunded the discounts that are allowed for presenters (see question on presenter discounts) if we use your presentation during the conference.  If we do not use your presentation at the conference, you will be automatically accepted as a presenter for the next conference.   

Due to uncontrolled circumstances, IPEIA may lose 5-10 conference presenters due to health, other commitments that take priority or they can’t travel due to work – which is why it is so important for IPEIA to have committed Backup Presenters in place to fill these spots.  It does happen as well that at the conference that a presenter falls ill, has an emergency situation arise, travel challenges, etc. so we need to ensure that we have backups available at the conference to fill in these gaps and that we do not leave empty rooms for our members.   Backup Presenters must register for the conference and be in attendance.

• If they are requested to present during the conference, they will receive a refund of the difference of the full registration amount to the discounted presenter rate.
• If they are not requested to present during the conference, they will automatically be approved to be a presenter at the next conference.

IPEIA typically receives well over 100 abstract submissions for the Conference and Webinar series each year.  We have limited spots available at the conference and for webinars.  IPEIA  “Preliminary Accepts” abstracts based on a number of criteria (IPEIA - Call for Presentations).  All decisions for programming are based on the final presentations review process. Presenters will be notified if their presentation is approved and scheduled for the conference or webinar series or if they were selected as a BACKUP presentation.

IPEIA does not accept any more than two “approved” presentations per company for the conference to avoid any favoritism.  If a company submits multiple abstracts it does not mean that they are guaranteed two spots in the conference schedule.  A company can submit as many abstracts as they want – once our “Call for Content” closes,  our Technical Program Committee spends 2 weeks reviewing and voting on all the presentations that were submitted.  Then the Conference Schedule is built from the “preliminary accepted” abstracts. It gets built based on topics/streams and not companies – we try to balance it so that it is evenly distributed and not too heavy on one stream – then the remainder of the presentations are flowed into our Backups.

IPEIA does not offer credits for the time that presenters use to create their presentation for the conference or webinar series. IPEIA has no way to verify the amount of time being spent.

IPEIA offers our full registered attending delegates a certificate of attendance only. It is up to the organizations how many hours they will equate for their certifications for their attendance at IPEIA. IPEIA’s webinar series also offers certificates of attendance following each webinar.  These certificates are sent directly to the member’s email that they registered for the webinar with.  IPEIA Administration does not manage these certificates of attendance from the GoToWebinar platform.  It is the member’s responsibility to manage this for themselves. IPEIA does not define the credits.

Please visit Exhibitor & Sponsor Renewal - IPEIA for more information on availability of exhibition booths and sponsorships.

We offer a renewal program for Exhibitors to secure their booth for the next conference at the same pricing* (ie: 2023 price will be the same for 2024 if they renew).

*Note: this offer takes place at the end of the current conference and is available for 2 weeks following, at the same pricing only to the previous year’s Exhibitors.

On occasion there are limited number of booths that become available each year because not everyone may be ready to commit to the following exhibition. Following the renewal offer, IPEIA will then open up “First Right of Refusal” for the available booths to be purchased at the new exhibition pricing. This offer is made to ONLY the following:

• IPEIA’s previous year’s Exhibitors who did not renew their booths at the end of the conference & exhibition
• IPEIA ‘s previous year’s Conference Sponsors

This is FIRST COME FIRST SERVE, so the remaining past exhibitors and conference sponsors all have equal opportunity to secure any remaining booths.

The best option to have a chance at securing a booth at future IPEIA Conferences & Exhibitions is to become a Conference Sponsor to allow your company the opportunity to be a part of the first right of refusal phase, as we have not had any booths to offer to the general public for many years.

A detailed email including instructions and your unique RENEWAL code was sent to your organization’s primary point of contact that IPEIA has registered on file.

To ensure you are up to date on all of the important information regarding your Exhibition Booth and/or Sponsorship, please:

1. Check the CORRECT point of contact is receiving this information (this is usually the last person who registered and paid for the booth or sponsorship opportunity).
2. Ensure your point of contact is receiving these communications/emails to their inbox – note: they will come from our admin emails, so work with your IT department to ask them not to block any emails from IPEIA.
3. Check your spam and junk folders for all IPEIA related emails, marking as Not Junk.
4. Ensure that your point of contact is disseminating the communications to the appropriate personnel in your organization, so that everyone is aware of the important information being provided by the deadlines as needed.
5. Check our website regularly for the most up to date information – bookmark critical webpages that pertain to your interests within IPEIA.
6. Ensure that your payment has been received – all unpaid invoices for renewals will be closed, and any unpaid booth/sponsorship opportunities will be released for the First Right of Refusal process.

IPEIA’s Registration System is designed as SELF SERVE.  It is your company’s responsibility to keep your records with IPEIA up to date.  

Only one contact can access your company’s Exhibition and Sponsorship records.  Please ensure the person who is responsible for your booth and sponsorship opportunities have updated the system

If they are unable to access the registration system to update their information, please contact admin@ipeia.com

To complete your payment for your Exhibitor Booth and/or Sponsorship renewal, please begin by logging into the Registration System by visiting here. From the black menu select Registration, then from the dropdown select My Registrations, followed by the renewal year (ex. 2024). This will bring up a list of that year’s registrations. Next locate your exhibitor booth registration, then click the View Registration button to the right of the record to proceed to your invoice.

If you DO NOT see a Proceed to Payment button, you will first need to verify that your contact information is correct by clicking the Go Back and Make Changes button at the bottom of the screen. This will take you to the registration form so that you can verify the contact information and agree to the terms and conditions by clicking the necessary check boxes. Following its completion, you may then select Continue and then Proceed to Invoice to return to the invoice screen. Once you return to the invoice, you should see a button to Proceed to Payment.

WHY RENEW:

• Guarantees your same booth same location for the upcoming conference year – you will have a spot!
• Guarantees your same sponsorship opportunity for the upcoming conference year – no one else can grab it on you!
• Guaranteed Pricing!

IF YOU CHOOSE TO NOT RENEW (or complete your payment by the deadline):
FIRST RIGHT OF REFUSAL (FRoR):

• No guarantee you will secure a booth. All sponsors and exhibitors from the previous year (ex. 2023 Conference for 2024 FRoR) are invited to participate in IPEIA’s FRoR process to secure a booth for the upcoming conference. There are only a select number of booths available – and available on a first come/ first serve basis.
• You can move or upgrade from your current booth location to another available booth – again, this is done on a first come/first serve basis and ONLY if there are any available booths to choose from.
• Sponsors can choose to change to another available sponsorship opportunity.
• Exhibition and Sponsorship pricing for the upcoming conference will be posted – FRoR is at the new year’s rates (any upgrades will need to be paid immediately at the new year’s rates (sum difference between the previous year’s renewal price to the upcoming year’s FRoR price)

IF YOU CHOOSE TO NOT RENEW OR FRoR: All available booths and sponsorship opportunities will open to the PUBLIC on as per the announced date.

To learn more, pricing and deadlines, visit Exhibitor & Sponsor Renewal - IPEIA.

*Past Exhibitors are eligible to renew their booth for the next conference (ie: 2023 price/same booth for the 2024 IPEIA Conference & Exhibition) or they can wait for ‘First Right of Refusal’ to purchase their booth for the next conference (next year’s exhibition pricing/select from available booths).  

*Note: past Exhibitors are not guaranteed a booth during FRoR as this opportunity is also available to all past IPEIA Sponsors.

Companies are only eligible to purchase one booth (it may be a single, double or a triple) but ONLY ONE BOOTH per company.  This maintains the integrity of IPEIA’s strategy to have as many different exhibitors as possible for our delegates’ experience.

The exhibition floor plan may vary from year to year as changes are made to the exhibit area.

Visit IPEIA - Exhibition for more information, including the pricing table within the Exhibition Information Package.

*Subject to same venue and space being contracted

If an Exhibitor wishes to move to a different location or would like to change their booth size, they will need to wait until First Right of Refusal (FRoR) opens. If there are any booths that were NOT renewed and are now available for purchase, an Exhibitor can change their booth location to the available booth.

Notes of consideration:

• It is recommended that an existing Exhibitor renew their booth for the next exhibition or they risk losing their booth during the FRoR phase.
• Past Exhibitors are not guaranteed a booth during FRoR as this opportunity is also available to all past IPEIA Sponsors.

Companies are only eligible to purchase one booth (it may be a single, double or a triple) but ONLY ONE BOOTH per company.  This maintains the integrity of IPEIA’s strategy to have as many different exhibitors as possible for our delegates’ experience.

The exhibition floor plan may vary from year to year as changes are made to the exhibit area.

*Subject to same venue and space being contracted

For instructions on how to move your booth to another location or upgrade to a larger booth, visit here.

IPEIA strategically predetermined the number of single, double and triple booths that would be made available at its annual conference. Historically there have been more exhibitors than available spaces. Booth sizes were reduced to accommodate more companies. We are also cognizant that without delegates, there will be no exhibition. Delegates tell IPEIA that they want to see the innovative solutions, new technologies that exhibitors have to present. They also want to see which new companies are entering the market. To ensure the conference meets delegate demands we are maintaining the ratio of single to larger booths. This balanced policy is intended to keep delegates engaged and ensure they attend the exhibition each year. Delegates are the heart of the conference and there would be no exhibition without their support.

Note:  We do have some exceptions from our past exhibitions which we will continue to “grandfather” to our current exhibition.  We will be reviewing these booths and circumstances for the following year.

The booths do not belong to the Exhibitor.  They are rented to them therefore if the Exhibitor is unable to attend, IPEIA reserves the right to rent it to another company.  Refunds are not issued unless IPEIA has been able to rent the booth to another organization.

Sponsorship opportunities during FRoR will depend on availability at that time - Sponsorship Opportunities - IPEIA. Key dates and more information can be found on our Exhibitor & Sponsor Renewal - IPEIA.

IPEIA has the following guidelines for collaboration on Student Posters:

1. All authors and co-authors must meet the “Eligible Student” criteria. Visit Student Technical Posters - IPEIA
2. The poster must be original work completed by the submitting student author(s). Co-authors are permitted to contribute to the work, provided they satisfy the eligible-student criteria.
3. Only one author from each selected poster is eligible to receive IPEIA’s conference experience - fully sponsored to attend the physical conference in Jasper, including conference fees, accommodations, and travel costs. Any additional contributors would have to sign up to attend the conference as a regular delegate, cover associated travel costs, and accommodations. Visit Registration - IPEIA
4. If the winning poster has multiple authors, IPEIA is able to acknowledge them but only one receives a speaker award.

IPEIA announces each annual webinar schedule in December, prior to the new year. Watch the website and emails for more information.

IPEIA’s 5 year vision and plan was to expand their offerings to their members all year and the pandemic allowed us to escalate this.  Through our webinar series we are now able to continue to bring our members programming all year long and allow our international members and presenters the opportunity to connect when physically it may not be an option.  

IPEIA will continue to seek other opportunities to bring our membership together throughout the year.

IPEIA’s Membership can be purchased separately (it is NOT included in your Conference registration – the conference is ONE of the many offerings IPEIA has).

To learn more, visit: Registration - IPEIA & Our Membership - IPEIA

No, IPEIA’s registration system is single sign on and each person must have their own unique email and password to then access all of the information they may qualify for later with IPEIA (ie: certificates of attendance, past presentations, etc).

When a conference registration is transferred to someone else, everything on the invoice transfers with it, including an IPEIA membership. Please visit Registration Policies - IPEIA for more information.

IPEIA Members receive Certificates of Attendance for attending our Webinar Series LIVE events. IPEIA is proud to provide a learning forum to its members, to increase awareness and provide knowledge and education for the continuous improvement of the pressure equipment industry. For information on how to download your LIVE Webinar Certificate of Attendance, visit Certificate of Attendance - IPEIA.

Please note, these certificates are generated and sent by GoToWebinar directly, and IPEIA has no control or access to them. Upon registering for a webinar, you will receive confirmation to your email address. That email address is the one you need to use to login to the webinar for the LIVE event, and where the certificate of attendance will be sent following it. If you do not receive an email confirming your attendance following registering for a webinar, please immediately look into the security features that may be blocking these communications. For most firewall or proxy systems, GoToWebinar recommends specifying an allowlist of DNS names for GoTo services so that outbound connections and communications can be made.

Yes!

When it opens, people are able to purchase/renew their IPEIA membership for the coming year and receive access to the IPEIA Membership portal (including webinar series for September to December and past presentations) right away. So therefore, if an IPEIA Membership was purchased on December 1^st, 2024 – you would be purchasing a membership for the coming year (ie. 2025, not a 2024), although you would still receive access from December 1^st onward.

Depends on how much you've been drinking, but most likely no.  However, you may encounter a cougar or two at the local watering hole.

Whichever side feels right.

Eh?

Absolutely.

Sorry, we’re not sure what you are talking about.

It is about 2,100 kilometers from Jasper as the moose walks.

No idea.

Unfortunately not, but everything he did, he did it for us.
