About this file
This is a notice-only document for the Central Florida Chapter of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (CFC NIGP) reverse trade show event, organized by the County of Volusia and involving over twenty-five local government agencies throughout Central Florida. The event is scheduled for Wednesday, November 4, 2026, at the DoubleTree by Hilton Orlando Theme Park Resort located at 10100 International Drive, Orlando, Florida 32821. Participating agencies include multiple counties (Osceola, Lake, Orange, Polk, Seminole, and Volusia), cities (Clermont, Groveland, Daytona Beach, Leesburg, Melbourne, Ocala, Orange City, Orlando, Palm Bay, St. Cloud, and Winter Park), school boards (Brevard County Public Schools, Osceola County School District, Orange County Public Schools, and Seminole County Public Schools), public utilities, transportation authorities, aviation authorities, and other government entities. The reverse trade show format differs from traditional trade shows in that government agency representatives staff exhibition booths while vendors move between booths for face-to-face meetings without requiring individual booth setup. Two registration sessions are available: morning (8:30 am to 11:30 am) and afternoon (12:30 pm to 3:30 pm), with early bird registration closing October 2, 2026, and the response deadline set for November 4, 2026, at 7:00 am.
Registration pricing is tiered based on timing and session selection, with early bird half-day registration at $100 per attendee, regular half-day registration at $125 per attendee, and pay-at-the-door half-day registration at $150 per attendee. Full-day registration options are available at $200 (early bird), $250 (regular), or $260 (pay at the door). Sponsorship opportunities are available at multiple levels: Diamond Sponsor ($2,200) includes a table with two chairs for product showcase, four admissions, lunch, and promotional benefits; Gold Sponsor ($1,500) includes a member directory listing, full-page color ad, two admissions, and website banner; and Silver Sponsor ($500) includes directory listing, half-page color ad, and two admissions. All sponsorship levels include electronic promotion in the member newsletter distributed to over 350 members and posted on the NIGP National website, with a sponsor deadline of October 2, 2026. Early bird registrants are offered virtual educational sessions on October 30, 2026, covering procurement cooperatives and doing business with government agencies. Vendor registration and sponsorship details are available at www.govtradeshow.com or www.cfcnigp.org. Contact information for sponsorship inquiries is provided through fundraising@cfcnigp.org or Tabatha C Freedman at tfreedman@volusia.org.
