CYTO Priority Points System
Priority points are the participation and loyalty reward system for CYTO Exhibitors and Sponsors. Accumulated points determine space selection order for next year's Congress. Companies receive one point per 10’ x 10’ booth purchased, for a maximum of five points. In the case of company mergers, exhibit management will use the highest number of years exhibited in calculating priority points. Priority points may also be earned through sponsorship support and/or for hosting a commercial tutorial.
