Registration:
Registration includes access to both the in-person and virtual conferences. However, please note that in-person registration has limited space availability. If you are planning to attend the live and in-person conference, please be sure to indicate that during registration. If you register as a virtual-only and later decide to attend in person, there is a strong possibility that space may no longer be available. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We appreciate your support and flexibility.
Early Bird registration will close on August 1, 2026, at 12:00 am EST, and Regular registration for the in-person COTS Conference will close on October 28, 2026, at 12:00 am EST.
Due to very limited in-person capacity, once the conference reaches capacity, on-site registration may not be available. We strongly encourage all attendees to register before October 28th to secure their spot and ensure availability of conference food, beverages, and attendee favors. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We appreciate your support and flexibility.
