Members will then be ordered by their years of consecutive membership. 2025 Global Exhibitors (companies that exhibited at IAAPA Expo Asia, IAAPA Expo Europe, or IAAPA Expo in 2025) will be prioritized over companies that are not Global Exhibitors. In the event of a tie, the date of contract receipt will prevail.
