>AUUG–The Organisation for Unix, Linux and Open Source Professionals

AUUG 2006 Become a Sponsor

AUUG is actively seeking sponsors for AUUG 2006.

Sponsorship is an ideal way for companies to promote their products and/or services to the Open Computing Professional community.  Sponsors are given every opportunity to interact with the 100-150 delegates who attend the conference, and sponsors are identified on conference material that is distributed to over 2000 Unix, Linux and Open Source professionals.  Conference material will be distributed from now until the conference is held in October, so the earlier a sponsorship arrangement is made, the more exposure you will receive.

Below we list the standard sponsorship packages.  However, please feel free to call and discuss variations and alternate ways to promote your business.

Call Susie Close at AUUG on +61 (0)412 122 377, or email auug2006prog@auug.org.au.
