The Market Research Event VIP Referral Club is a promotion open to any individual who meets the eligibility requirements of the program.

To be considered eligible:

1. You must complete the Referral Club Sign Up form in its entirety and with valid information.
2. You must not be an employee of IIR.
3. You cannot be a sponsor, speaker, exhibitor or in anyway directly affiliated with either event.
4. You do not have to purchase anything.

Referrals are valid only for:

1. The events: The Market Research Event, October 13-16 in Anaheim, CA or The Research Industry Summit, November 6 - 7 in Chicago, IL
2. New registrations: Anyone previously registered for The Market Research Event or The Research Industry Summit will not be permitted to retroactively apply any VIP referral code.
3. Online registrations: Registrations completed by any method other than completion of IIR's online registration forms will not be applied.
4. Credit card registrations: Registrations paid for by any means other than credit card will not be applied.
5. Attendees: Even if a referral meets all other criteria, credit for a referral will only be given if that individual attends either of the events.

Other important information about the promotion:

1. The maximum AMEX Gift Card value per individual is $300.
2. IIR reserves the right to substitute the AMEX Gift Card with a reward of equal value.
3. Although a VIP Referral Club Member can also be a registrant of either event, a VIP Referral Club Member cannot receive referral credit for referring him or herself.
4. No two promotions can be applied at the same time.  Registering at a lower price before a specified date - sometimes known as "early bird discounts" - is not considered a promotion.
5. If two VIP Referral Club members claim to have referred the same individual, credit will be given to the member whose VIP priority code was used in the registration process.
6. If a referral provides two valid VIP priority codes at the time of registration, the code that appears first in the priority code field will receive credit for the referral, even if the IIR website and registration confirmation page recognize both codes as valid.
7. This promotion ends on October 12, 2008.
8. IIR may change any of the terms of the promotion without notice to participants.
