The Organiser is the European Society of Cataract and Refractive
Surgeons. The Exhibitor is the company that completes and submits the
online application for space. All communication regarding exhibition space
must be channelled through the ESCRS and orders for exhibition space
will only be accepted on the official online exhibition reservation form.
The rent per square metre in the exhibition area is €350 and this covers
the cost of booth space only. Optional extras will be available to order online from
November 2012.
A deposit of 25% of the total cost of the exhibition space is due on or before 12 October 2012
Full payment for booth space is due by 23 November 2012
In the event that full payment has not been received by
23 November 2012, the Organiser reserves the right to
reallocate booth space.
All Exhibitors will be listed in the Final Programme, provided booth space
has been reserved and paid in full before the programme goes to print.
All Exhibitors may also submit a product listing and company logo for
inclusion on the ESCRS Virtual Exhibition. These may be uploaded through
the ERC. The Organiser is not responsible for errors or omissions in the
programme or on the virtual exhibition.
The Organiser reserves the right to alter the present regulations with immediate effect in the event that orders from the Authorities or other compelling reasons might make it necessary.
The Organiser shall be entitled to alter the space rented by the Exhibitor
and to undertake limitations of the rented area. Such limitations can only
be made against a corresponding reduction of the booth rental but shall
not render the Organiser liable to pay compensation.
Furthermore, the Organiser shall be entitled, within thirty days after the
receipt of the application and deposit, without assigning any reason and without incurring liability to damage, to cancel the lease
entered into against reimbursing any booth rental paid at the time of
cancellation. Exhibitors are not permitted to sublet their booth or lend
it to a third party in part or whole. Exhibitors may not exchange booths
without the written consent of the Organiser.
All Exhibitors are required to have Public / General Liability insurance with a minimum Limit of Indemnity of 2 Million EUR in order to participate in the Congress and associated exhibition. The Exhibitor shall be liable for personal injury and damage to property caused by the Exhibitor, his or her servants or agents, or by his or her equipment and activities. All Risks cover against damage and theft to the Exhibitor’s own property, and also to property rented/leased by the Exhibitor, shall also be arranged by each Exhibitor. Cover shall also be arranged for injury to exhibitors own employees, where applicable. Exhibitors shall ensure that any subcontractors engaged by them have similar and commercially reasonable insurances in place.
It is the responsibility of each Exhibitor to ensure that they have the required insurance policies in place and the ESCRS is only responsible for damages arising from the willful neglect of the ESCRS’s permanent staff.

If notification of a cancellation is received prior to 23 November 2012, and booth space has been paid in full, a refund of 50% of the total cost of the booth space will be issued. If only deposit payment has been made this will not be refunded.
If notification of a cancellation of booth space is received after 23 November 2012 and the booth space has been paid in full then there will be no refund of any amount.
If notification of a cancellation of booth space is received after 23 November 2012 and only the deposit payment has been received then the remaining 75% of the cost of the booth space will be due for payment.
If notification of a cancellation of booth space is received after 23 November 2012 and no deposit payment has been received then 100% of the cost of the booth space will be due for payment.
