A Banner Exhibit
Setting up an in-line or island exhibit is a breeze with the SEG Popup system from Bannermate Exhibition System Co. Ltd. Simply open the powder-coated pop-up frame (available in a variety of widths), set up the silicone-edge graphics channel bars, and insert your custom SEG panels. Frames can be linked together in a wide variety of configurations, and the ability to create single- or double-sided panels with or without end caps makes the SEG Popup ideal for island exhibits. The additional Max LED backlighting option means your graphics will truly stand out on the show floor, and the entire lightweight system breaks down quickly and easily for reduced shipping and drayage costs.

Power Aid
Is your giveaway program feeling less than energized? Then recharge it with the Rubberized Power Bank from 4imprint Inc. This 2-by-2-by-.75-inch pocket- and purse-friendly device is Underwriters Laboratories listed and can be printed with a custom one- or two-color graphic to enure attendees remember your company's name and message long after the trade show or corporate event is over. Features include a standard USB output port, micro USB input port (charging cord included), and a durable, slip-resistant finish available in five colors. Its 3,000 mAh lithium polymer battery supplies enough juice to fully charge most smartphones – and buy enough time to finish a pressing project on a tablet – making this giveaway anything but a throwaway. Contact: 4imprint Inc., Oshkosh, WI, 888-298-8190, www.4imprint.com
Lighting the Way
Make your booth graphics pop with the PAL25XL LED Display Arm Light from Prism Tradeshow Lighting, which casts a bright-white beam while generating no radiant heat. These powerful lighting accessories feature a streamlined design and use AD/DC rectification technology that allows up to six sets of 11 arm lights to draw electricity from a power strip connected to a single outlet, thereby alleviating any wire-management headaches. Measuring 21 inches long from end to end, the fixtures can be modified with "barn door" light deflectors, colored gel sheets, and a warm-light filter to achieve a wide range of color temperatures and lighting effects. A universal slide base plate is designed to be compatible with both Prism Tradeshow Lighting's proprietary brackets and most common fastening hardware for greater versatility and ease of use.

Hide and Seek
Connecting attendees with the optimal staffer in a large, crowded exhibit can be like finding a needle in a haystack – and often leaves hot prospects cooling their heels. TurnoutNow LLC's Pinpoint system, a real-time staff locator powered by wearable Bluetooth beacons, solves this problem by enabling exhibit managers to find their ace employees in seconds, increasing booth efficiency and reducing the number of attendee hand-offs. A dashboard allows exhibit managers to track multiple data points, view a heat map of their booth to see what areas are attracting the most interest, and send staffers text messages.

Fresh Prints
Ensure faster check-in times at your next corporate event with the SwiftColor SCC-4000D Oversized Credential Printer. This compact unit can produce a 3.5-by-5.5-inch badge with full-color 1,200-by-1,200-dpi resolution in just 2 seconds. The printer, which requires a Windows operating system and USB 2.0 connection, uses proprietary paper and PVC stock optimized with an ink-receptive layer. The SwiftColor printer is also suited for producing postcards, door hangers, and more.

Step Right Up
Prize wheels, a perennial favorite among attendees, come into the 21st century thanks to Interactive Meeting Technology LLC's (dba SocialPoint Audience Engagement) virtual rendition, which can be displayed on touchscreens ranging from a tablet to large-scale monitors. After entering their contact information and any other customizable data fields of an exhibitor's choosing, attendees can give the virtual wheel a spin to see what they win. The system's software monitors prize inventory so it doesn't give away items that are out of stock, and it also tracks what each attendee wins, enabling exhibitors to provide highly personalized post-show follow-ups. In addition, the game allows attendees to set the level of follow-up they desire, helping the exhibitor find the most qualified leads.
