he BTAC Annual Conference offers vendors and exhibitors a meaningful opportunity to connect, engage, and build relationships with conference attendees through information tables and interactive exhibits. Our Vendor Connection space is intentionally designed to support outreach, visibility, and authentic engagement with the Black trans community.
With multiple events, meals, and conference breaks throughout the week, attendees naturally flow through the vendor area—creating consistent opportunities to share your work, promote your services, and sell products in a welcoming environment. The vendor space is most active between workshop sessions, before and after meals, and during scheduled breaks.
Many of our vendors return year after year because of the strong connections and real impact they experience at BTAC. If you’re looking to connect with the Black transgender community and get your business or organization noticed, BTAC26 is the place to be.
