PRIM&R 2027 booths for IRB and IACUC leaders, after Denver 2026

PRIM&R gathers the people who protect research participants and animals, so we build calm, credible booths that explain your IRB, IACUC or training solution clearly. We plan for PRIM&R's 10×10 carpeted spaces and its one-morning move-in.

  • 2027 dates not confirmed yet
  • 2,000+ attendees in 2026
  • 30 premium booths (2026)

What makes PRIM&R Annual Conference different, and how we build for it

PRIM&R, Public Responsibility in Medicine and Research, convenes the people who run human research protection programs and animal care and use committees, and its exhibit floor is small and focused: 30 premium exhibitor booths for 2,000+ attendees in 2026. The floor opens with show hours after the first day's sessions, hosts the Tuesday reception, and closes at midday Wednesday. Exhibitors can add a 15-minute Industry Theater presentation with the Career Development booth, sponsor the IACUC Evening Reception, the Welcome Walk or a networking meal, and the 10×30 package includes an industry session and Platinum Sponsor recognition.

IRB and human research protection staff

Software, review services and training that make protocol review, consent and reporting faster and audit-ready, explained without hype.

IACUC and animal care professionals

Animal program management tools, training and suppliers that meet welfare requirements, with someone who knows the regulations.

Institutional officials and research leaders

Program-level solutions, accreditation support and budget clarity, plus a calm place to discuss a multi-year contract.

Rules that shape your booth

Exhibits stay inside 10×10 spaces

Each on-site booth space is 10 feet wide by 10 feet deep and carpeted, exhibits may not project beyond the space, and aisles must be kept clear (2026 policies). We design every element to sit inside the footprint.

Organizer rule

Objectionable exhibits lose without refund

PRIM&R may prohibit or restrict exhibits because of design or noise and is not liable to refund exhibitor expenses if it does. We keep audio off or on headsets and graphics factual and calm.

Organizer rule

Catering only through the venue

Vendors may host catered events in their booths only through the convention center's exclusive caterer; no outside food or beverage, and no selling or serving alcohol from booths (2026 policies). We build a service counter for the caterer.

Organizer rule

Set up and tear down in the windows

Setting up or dismantling outside the move-in and move-out windows is prohibited, booths must be staffed during show hours, and third-party set-up companies must follow PRIM&R's policies. We schedule the install labor inside those windows.

Organizer rule

Case study · SpecialtyRx

SpecialtyRx at a healthcare trade show

Built for visibility across the whole floor: a custom island with elevated circular branding and LED tiles that stayed busy from open to close.

SpecialtyRx's booth won attention with clear, confident branding; at PRIM&R, where the audience reviews research for risk, that confidence has to come from calm, factual design.

Four things we get right for PRIM&R Annual Conference exhibitors

Team meeting with laptops and documents in a modern office1

Ready by 3 p.m. on day one

In 2026 PRIM&R move-in runs 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the first conference day, with booths set by 3 p.m. and show hours from 4:30 p.m. We pre-build the kit and label every case, so our project manager finishes well before the first attendees arrive.

Colleagues discussing documents at an office meeting table2

Stay inside the 10×10

Each PRIM&R booth space is 10 feet wide and 10 feet deep and carpeted, exhibits may not project beyond it, and aisles must stay clear. We design counters and screens to sit entirely within the footprint, with nothing leaning into the aisle.

Senior leaders talking in a modern boardroom3

Calm design avoids restriction

PRIM&R can prohibit or restrict exhibits because of their design or noise, and it will not refund costs if it does. We keep graphics factual, audio off or on headphones, and lighting soft, which also suits an audience that reviews research ethics for a living.

Catering through the convention center

Booths may host catered events only through the venue's exclusive catering provider; outside food and serving alcohol from booths are not allowed. If you plan a coffee moment, we build a small counter for the caterer's service and order it on time.

PRIM&R Annual Conference exhibitor questions

Questions exhibitors ask us before PRIM&R Annual Conference

How much does a booth at PRIM&R cost?

PRIM&R has not posted 2027 prices. In 2026 a 10×10 with two full registrations cost $3,500, a non-profit booth $1,500, a Career Development booth $4,000, a premium 10×20 $15,000 and a 10×30 $20,000. Our 10×20 rental runs $7,500 to $15,000 on a fixed proposal.

What comes with a PRIM&R booth?

In 2026 a 10×10 included basic carpet, one 6-foot table, two chairs, a nameplate and a wastebasket, plus a virtual booth and a registrant list without email addresses. A 10×20 included two tables and four chairs, and a 10×30 three tables and four chairs.

Can we rent a booth for the PRIM&R conference?

We rent PRIM&R kits: a fabric backwall, fitted table throws or counter fronts, lighting and a screen stand, all inside the booth footprint. Freight, set-up and dismantle by our project manager are priced together, and the kit goes back to our warehouse afterwards.

When is PRIM&R 2027?

PRIM&R's 2027 dates and city are not confirmed yet. The most recent conference runs November 16–18, 2026 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver. We will plan your booth timeline as soon as PRIM&R announces the 2027 meeting.

Where is PRIM&R 2027 held?

The 2027 location is not confirmed yet. The 2026 Annual Conference is in Denver at the Colorado Convention Center. Venue logistics for 2027 follow once PRIM&R names the city.

Who can staff our PRIM&R booth?

Any registered staff: PRIM&R required all booth staff to register by October 31 for 2026, to pick up badges before entering the Exhibit Hall, and to keep exhibits staffed during show hours. Packages include full and Exhibit Hall-only registrations; extra Exhibit Hall passes were $600.

Can we serve food or drinks at our PRIM&R booth?

Only through the convention center's exclusive caterer. PRIM&R lets vendors host catered events in their booths, but outside food and beverage is not allowed, and vendors cannot sell or serve alcohol from their booths.

Can a PRIM&R booth be reused at other shows?

We build PRIM&R kits so the backwall and counters also serve SCT, ACRP or SCOPE once the prints change; in the gap we keep it in our warehouse and retune the wording for clinical research and compliance buyers.

How many people attend PRIM&R?

PRIM&R counts 2,000+ attendees, 60+ speakers and 30 premium exhibitor booths at its 2026 conference, with about 1,000 human research protection professionals, 500 animal care and use professionals and 500 institutional leaders. Attendance for 2027 is not confirmed yet.

Who organizes the PRIM&R Annual Conference?

PRIM&R, Public Responsibility in Medicine and Research, whose conference serves human research protection staff, animal care and use professionals and institutional leaders. Exhibits and sponsorships are booked through PRIM&R's online exhibitor application.

What happens if we cancel our PRIM&R booth?

Under the 2026 policies, funds were refunded minus a $100 processing fee if cancelled by August 31, and no refunds were given from October 6 to November 2. PRIM&R also gives no refund if it restricts an exhibit for design or noise.

What are the PRIM&R exhibit hall hours?

Hours for the 2027 conference are not confirmed yet. At PRIM&R 2026 in Denver the Exhibit Hall opens Monday, November 16, 4:30–5:45 p.m., then Tuesday, November 17, 7 a.m.–6:15 p.m. with a 5 p.m. reception, and Wednesday, November 18, 7 a.m.–1:30 p.m.

Is PRIM&R open to the public?

PRIM&R is a registered professional conference for research ethics and compliance staff, not a public event. In 2026 a full conference registration cost $1,762 and an Exhibit Hall-only pass $600, each with two lunch vouchers, and exhibit packages bundled their own full and hall-only registrations.
