With a view to stimulating exhibitor and delegate interest in the TAC conference exhibition, the association has established an annual award for the best display set up by a private company. The award is named in honour of W.H. Yeates, a former chief executive officer of TAC, who was instrumental in developing the exhibition.

The award for the best exhibit at
TAC's 2008 conference went to

The general criteria for the award are as follows:
