Fwd: [ESUG 2012] Call for sponsors

Dear Smalltalkers, As you know ESUG (European Smalltalk User Group) is a nonprofit organization, ran by a bunch of volunteers which aims at promoting Smalltalk (http://www.esug.org/Promotion). ESUG does have multiple actions such as sponsoring Smalltalk-related publications (articles and books), encouraging developers and more specifically young students to learn Smalltalk (Student Volunteers program) and build innovative software using Smalltalk (SummerTalk, ESUG Awards, "Support your project" program, Umbrella for GSoC, ...). ESUG revenue comes only from sponsoring, donations, and registrations to the ESUG yearly event (for 20 years!). Therefore, we invite you to support the ESUG actions by encouraging your companies and organizations to sponsor ESUG. As previous years, we have three sponsoring packages (http://www.esug.org/About/BecomeSponsor): * Silver ESUG Sponsor: By paying € 500 per year, the logo of your company/association is displayed during the ESUG conference, and you are also recognized as a sponsor on our ESUG website http://www.esug.org. You are entitled to mention that you are an ESUG sponsor, and to use the ESUG logo in that context. * Gold ESUG Sponsor: By paying € 1000 per year, you get all of the above, and ESUG correspondence and distributions (CD, Documentation) will feature your logo. You also get a 10% fee reduction on the ESUG events for up to 5 people of your organisation. * Platinum ESUG Sponsor: By Paying € 2000 per year, you get all of the above, but you get a 20% fee reduction on the ESUG events for up to 10 people of your organisation. For any further information, you can contact us directly at board(a)esug.org.
