Corporate Session Submissions

Companies have two different ways that they can present:

  1. Co-Present a Session with a customer

    A customer that is a HUG member may submit a session proposal for consideration that includes your company as a co-presenter. No costs are associated with this type of presentation; however, your customer must be the primary presenter, and they are responsible for submitting the proposal. If the session is accepted, your customer's primary presenter will be informed, and the primary presenter who is a HUG member will receive a discounted registration (Exhibitor co-presenters must be a sponsor or exhibitor at Super Forum plus register for the conference).

  2. Be a Sponsor at Super Forum 2026

    Sponsors should refer to the Sponsor Prospectus for details.

Sponsor Sessions are due February 11, 2026. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Exhibitor Presenters must be registered for the event in order to present on-site. Exhibitor Presenters DO NOT receive complimentary registrations unless they've purchased an "add-on" session, which includes a full conference registration.

Session submissions are open to HUG Members only.

If your organization is already a member you can create a profile or reset your password.

Liability Waiver

I understand that travel and gathering involves risk of illness. I (and on behalf of my guest(s)) waive and release HUG and its sponsors and exhibitors, and their volunteers and agents, from and against claims, liabilities and expenses arising from injury, illness or death from contraction or spread of communicable diseases due to travel to or attendance at an event sponsored by HUG.

I will take necessary precautions and abide all safety protocols implemented on-site for the event and agree to not attend any HUG event if I feel ill or had recent exposure. HUG reserves the right to modify health screening protocols at their discretion. This is a very fluid time, and we will continue to evaluate what is needed to ensure your safety.

This waiver and release are binding on me and my heirs and successors.
