Title: *

Body:

I am seeking sponsorship for a Barcamp event and hope that your organisation
might like to contribute in some way.

I am helping to organise an Unconference (a.k.a Barcamp) on the 25th and
26th of April in Wellington. This Barcamp has three streams of
focus:  Mobile development, Internet Identity and Distributed Social
Networks.

We are expecting  anywhere from 50 to 80 leading edge thinkers and doers
will be attending this event.  More details can be found on the organising
wiki:

Internet Identity:  http://www.barcamp.org.nz/internet-identity

Mobile: http://www.barcamp.org.nz/mobile

If you are unfamiliar with the ideas of an Unconference then more

Barcamps are unconferences organised by a community of interested
individuals and participated by those same individuals.  Instead of
providing a predetermined schedule the participants construct the schedule;
typically on the day. The event starts with an introduction by the
organisers articulating the purpose of the event, the guidelines for conduct
during the day and any parameters such as session lengths. They are events
for individuals who are passionate in their area of interest and as a result
make things happen at a grassroots level. Organisations can be part of these
events by helping to sponsor them in some way:

Direct sponsorship

Direct sponsorship starts at just $250 but don't be restricted by this, it
can be more. Operating Barcamps on a limited budget is an intricate part of
the concept.  We use our energy to innovate not to raise funds.  However,
some operating costs are unavoidable.

In Kind Sponsorship

The creativity never stops at a Barcamp, but coffee, and food are needed to
fuel that constant creativity.  T-Shirts are needed to keep our super-hip
geek credentials intact.  If there is a service that you feel your company
can offer us, the please do so. Take for example The State Services
Commision is providing the Venue, and Oracle NZ are providing pizza for
lunches.

Your Value in return:

1. All sponsors will be acknowledged, along with their contribution and site
link on the Barcamp.org.nz (and other related sites). If branding is
provided by the sponsor this will feature also. The details of the Barcamp
remain indefinitely on the Web to provide an anchor point for blog posts and
other mentions of the Barcamps.

2. Wherever possible sponsor's support will be acknowledged in any
correspondence (emails) with the wider community.

3. At the Event (Introduction and at the Summary): sponsors will be
explicitly acknowledged and Sponsor's branding will be displayed.

I look forward to hearing from you.
