Warning of Potential Poachers/Scammers

Optica Show Management does not release its exhibitor contact list to anyone except official show vendors. If you are contacted by any vendors, always ask them to send you details in writing. If you are contacted by a non-official vendor, or are unsure, please provide us with the details regarding these calls or emails. We will follow up aggressively with them. This includes outside companies offering hotel rooms, listings in show directories, lists of attendees/contacts, as well as more standard items for your booth such as A/V or internet. 

To help protect yourself, please take note of the following:

  • Be vigilant: Always ensure you are communicating with Optica through official channels. Optica official web URLs and addresses include:
    • @optica.org (such as attendeereg, exhibitops, custserv)
    • events.optica.org
    • optica.org
  • Do not share sensitive information: Avoid providing personal, financial, or login details to unverified sources.
  • Report suspicious emails: If you are contacted or solicited by anyone claiming to represent Optica, please send information to Exhibits@optica.org so appropriate action can be taken promptly.

Your security and trust are of utmost importance to us.
