Be an Exhibitor or Sponsor at OETC 2027
March 9 to 11, 2027
Dayton Convention Center, Dayton, Ohio
Grounded in Tradition, Elevated for the Future
Why OETC
OETC brings together teachers, technology leaders, instructional coaches, administrators, and library and media specialists from across Ohio and neighboring states. In 2026, the audience was 34.7% technology staff, 32.7% educators, 12.9% leadership and administration, 6.9% instructional and curriculum coaches, and 4% librarians and media specialists.
Districts send teams, so the people who recommend, evaluate, and approve purchases are in the hall together. Dedicated exhibit hall time, with no competing sessions, runs every day.
What is new in 2027?
-
Dayton. OETC comes to the newly renovated Dayton Convention Center, with a redesigned exhibit hall.
-
Spark Talks and the Innovator of the Year award. Main-stage moments that put Ohio educators in front of the whole conference.
-
Students on the stage. A student showcase that sponsors can underwrite.
-
No exclusivity. Sponsorship levels give access and visibility. No category is locked to one company.
