Sponsorship

WordCamp Portsmouth UK is put together by volunteers on a not for profit basis. We try our very best to keep the prices for attendees as low as possible and are supremely grateful for the sponsorship that we receive. So thanks again everyone.

Sponsors are the people who make this possible. Sponsoring a WordCamp puts you in touch with a very special community.

It puts your brand in front of a cross section of people which you’d find challenging to reach through any other forum.

The audience at WordCamp crosses many industries and sectors, from casual bloggers and SMEs to enterprise and government. It really is a unique opportunity to connect with a diverse section of the online community.

Being forward thinking types, attendees are often key influencers within their organisations, especially in creative, strategy, technology and communications.

Here are the ways in which you can contribute to the successful running of WordCamp.

All listings of sponsors, eg on websites and event literature, will be in order of the value of sponsorship, starting with the highest contributor, and then in alphabetical order if sponsorship is of the same value.

All posters and banners must be provided by sponsors.

There will be a deadline, to allow for printing, for inclusion of logos and names on WordCamp UK 2011 t-shirts.

All sponsors are able to propose to take a session but the subject must be WordPress related. Such proposals will go through the same procedure as all other proposed sessions, with no promise of inclusion in the running order.
