4:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. – Exhibit Hall Cafe and Throughout the Hall
Unwind and explore during the Open House & Happy Hour—an energetic yet relaxed way to close out the day. Stroll the exhibit floor with a drink in hand, enjoy gourmet appetizers, and take advantage of one last opportunity to connect with suppliers and peers in a casual setting, sponsored by Elos Medtech.
After an early start at the Keynote and a full day of learning and networking, this event is the perfect transition—whether you’re wrapping up for the evening or heading out to a business dinner in Rosemont. Don’t miss this fun and flavorful finale to a productive day. We’ll do an OEM Raffle Drawing at 4:45 and you must be present to win!
Pancake Power Hour – Thursday, June 19
8:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. – Exhibit Hall Cafe
Fuel your final day at OMTEC with a hot, delicious breakfast served right on the exhibit floor. The Pancake Power Hour features fluffy pancakes, fresh fruit, and other gourmet accompaniments to help you start strong and stay sharp.
With more than 200 exhibitors on the floor, chances are there’s still someone you haven’t met or a conversation left to be had. The exhibit hall and headshot booth open at 8:00 am, and with only five hours remaining before OMTEC wraps at 1:00 pm, this is your moment to make every minute count.
Grab a plate, reconnect with colleagues and finish strong.
Burgers & Beers Finale – Thursday, June 19
12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. – Exhibit Hall Cafe and Throughout the Hall

We’ll also hold our final OEM raffle drawing—and yes, you must be present to win. So stick around, enjoy a well-earned lunch and maybe walk away with an incredible prize.
OMTEC is the result of months of planning, dedication, and care from organizers, exhibitors and attendees alike. Staying through the final moments helps honor that shared effort and keeps the energy going until the very end. We’d be truly grateful to have you with us through the close of the show.
