Exhibitors are encouraged to carry their own general liability insurance as well as any additional property or theft insurance they deem appropriate but are no longer required to provide to Event Management evidence of that insurance or name Diversified Communications as an additional insured on the exhibitor’s policy. Event Management has implemented a new program that provides liability coverage for all participating exhibitors. This replaces the previous requirement for individual certificates of insurance. The coverage provided does not protect exhibitor’s personal property from theft or damage and the responsibility for such items remains exclusively with exhibitors, who are advised to secure their valuables at all times. |
