Get Exposure From Panel Floors

Even if you’re not seated on the speaking panel at a trade show, you should go to the session. After speakers are finished, questions are normally taken from the floor. Ask a pertinent question that will be responded to with an answer that will benefit many people in the audience. You will benefit from people recognizing you. You will also gain credibility with the other speakers, the panel chair, and members of the audience (which includes reporters).

After the session, meet the chairperson and the other speakers. Tell them briefly about your background, and offer your services for the next panel.
