In the event of an emergency, one of two alarms may sound:

Alert alarm – “Beep! Beep! Beep!” This is a warning alarm to notify everyone of a possible emergency. If it sounds, please stand by for further instructions.

Evacuation alarm – “Whoop! Whoop!” This alarm means all occupants must evacuate. When it sounds, wardens will direct everyone to leave via the nearest exits quickly but calmly, and assemble at the nearest evacuation point where they are to remain until ICC Sydney staff advise that it is safe to return.

 

Deliveries

Deliveries to your stand need to be carefully managed to avoid any delays or damage.

Show Attendee List Scam

WARNING: HOAX THIRD PARTY EMAILS AND LETTERS

Please be aware that Integrate exhibitors have recently been a target of groups trying to take advantage of the Integrate name and your affiliation with the event. Some of our exhibitors have received phone calls and e-mails from individuals offering attendee lists and directories from a number of hoax third party companies. Please do not attempt to buy Integrate attendee lists.

Integrate and its official partners/or vendors do not sell, rent or distribute attendee lists in any way, nor do we send e-mails via Gmail/Yahoo/Hotmail accounts. All official communication comes from a Diversified Communications Australia email account (@divcom.net.au). Any communication suggesting otherwise is not affiliated with Integrate.
