Booth Types
Pop-up displays: Space-efficient displays designed for quick setup and inexpensive transport. Display units must be 2-3 meters wide and at least 2 meters tall to qualify for this type of exhibit space.
Octanorm: Ready-built booths with three walls and ceiling and fixtures are supplied by the official exhibit company. This is ideal for exhibitors who want to travel light or don’t want to invest in their own displays.
Custom booths: Professionally designed trade-show exhibits, typically owned by the vendor and used from show to show. If you require a booth of a special configuration or size, contact Chris Luxton at +1 608 826 5001 or by e-mail to [email protected]
If there is a question concerning exhibit type, the exhibit coordinator of Localization World reserves the right to make the final decision.
Application Process 1. Choose an exhibit type.
2. Select an exhibit space in the area(s) reserved for that exhibit type. Metal Sponsors will have first choice, according to exhibit type and timing of sponsorship. For information on becoming a platinum, gold, silver or bronze sponsor and other sponsorship opportunities such as dinner, conference bags and notepads, e-mail [email protected]
3. Receive confirmation from Localization World for your selected space or receive information about alternatives.
In order to make things easier and clearer, we have split the exhibitor information into two documents, this Exhibit Brochure and the Exhibit Application Form.
Exhibit Application FormAn application form has been designed to provide the information needed to set you up as an exhibitor: http://www.localizationworld.com/lwber2010/downloads/ExhbtAppBerlin2010.pdf
SponsoringMetal Sponsors are given priority booth selection as well as a discount on exhibit space. In addition, metal sponsorships include additional free conference registrations. Pairing an exhibit with a sponsorship exposes the exhibitor much more than a booth alone. Contact Chris Luxton at [email protected] or by phone at +1 (608) 826-5001 for further information on sponsorships.

For LW Berlin 2010 we are pleased to be working again with Funke Design GmbH who provided excellent service for the past Localization Worlds in Germany. Our relationship with Funke Design is a non-exclusive one, which means that you are free to hire another exhibit supplier to design, build and install your booth. To make the setup at the conference as smooth as possible, your exhibit company needs to coordinate the setup with Funke Design.

The good news for those of you who qualify for a refund is that all VAT you pay in Germany in connection with your conference/exhibit participation is eligible for a VAT refund. Even if you add a business trip to see clients to your itinerary (sorry, not vacation-related expenses), all VAT on hotels, airline tickets, restaurants, phone calls, car rental and so on can be reclaimed.
In Germany, VAT is typically included in the price posted. For example, a hotel room that is listed at €150 already includes a €24 VAT, which can be reclaimed. The same holds true for other travel expenses.
It is, however, a requirement that the invoice/receipts that are being submitted in connection with a VAT refund request are made out to the company that is applying for the refund. The VAT on a car rental receipt issued to an individual cannot be reclaimed by his or her company.
Those of you eligible for a refund might want to work with VAT Refund Services, a German company that specializes in helping international companies reclaim VAT. They specialize in trade-show and conference-related expenses and charge a minimum flat fee of €99 or a recovery fee of 15% of the refunded VAT for amounts that exceed the minimum fee.
Localization World has no commission or other agreement with VAT Refund Services and assumes no responsibility should you choose to work with them. We did, however, review the company and as a result can recommend its services.
The contact information for VAT Refund Services is:

We are required to collect VAT from you and forward it to the German Finanzamt (Internal/Inland Revenue). This means that we will add 19% VAT to the net amount of the services you order from us.
Depending on where your company is headquartered, you may be eligible for a full refund of the VAT you paid.
German companies will automatically receive a credit after they file their VAT (Umsatzsteuer) forms at the end of the month or quarter. If your company operates a subsidiary in Germany, you might want us to invoice them directly since they can reclaim VAT so easily.
European Union-based companies are eligible for a full refund once their VAT payments in Germany reach a certain level. This, however, requires filing a refund request and can involve a wait period of several months.
All other countries fall into two categories:
Category one includes countries that have a tax agreement with Germany that allows companies based in these countries to file for a refund. To see if your country is included, visit http://www.vat-refund-services.de/en/overview/countrylist/index.html
Category two includes countries that don’t have such an agreement. Companies in those countries don’t have a way to reclaim VAT.

Exhibition Rules
A. Exhibit rental. The exhibit space rental is for the sole use of the contracting organization that appears on the Exhibit Application Form. No portion of the booth shall be sublet or assigned to another organization without the consent of the conference organizers.
B. Space assignment. Assignments will be made after the receipt of the application and payment on a first-come, first-served basis. The conference organizers reserve the right to reassign exhibit spaces at any time in the interest of creating a cohesive exhibit.
C. Signs and advertising. Localization World will provide a sign for each exhibit space. No signs or advertising devices shall be displayed outside the exhibit space.
D. Exhibit hours. Displays must be staffed during all regular exhibit hours. Adherence to setup and take-down schedule is required. Localization World reserves the right to curtail exhibits or parts of exhibits that reflect against the cha-racter of the conference.
E. Loss, damage. Neither Localization World, its sponsors, their employees or agents will be responsible for any injury, loss or damage that may occur to the exhibitor or the exhibitor’s property. By signing the exhibit space application, the exhibitor releases Localization World, its sponsors, their employees and agents from any agree-ment to indemnify them against any and all claims for loss, damage or injury. Exhibitors are advised to carry insurance.
F. Sales. Any on-site selling must comply with all laws regarding taxes.
G . Printed materials. Printed materials may only be distributed within the exhibitor’s assigned booth and may not be placed in other areas of the conference venue without the consent of the conference organizers.
H. Storage of empty containers. Exhibitors must make separate arrangements for the storage of their empty containers and shipping materials during the conference. These accommodations should be made through the official exhibition company referenced herein.
I. Termination. If the conference is terminated due to picketing, strike, embargo, injunction, act of war, act of terrorism, act of God, or a state of emergency declared by a government agency, the exhibitor waives any and all damages. Localization World may, after deducting all costs and expenses including a reserve for claims, refund to the exhibitor the prorated amount of all funds paid by the exhibitor.
J . Cancellation. No refund will be given for the cancellation of space after the assignment of space has been made. The space may be resold, reassigned or used by Localiza-tion World without benefit or refund to the exhibitor.
