Does Esri provide a list of attendees for the UC and/or concurrent events?
The Esri User Conference and concurrent events are open only to Esri software users. The user list is proprietary information and, therefore, is not provided to exhibitors or attendees. However, Esri does bar code the badges for UC and concurrent events. Exhibitors are encouraged to rent a lead retrieval system to capture attendee information.
