2010 Conference - Dare to Share IT
Conference Sponsorship Information
Vendor Participation: Sponsorship
Vendors may participate in ACPE through conference sponsorship. Depending on the level of sponsorship, opportunities for exposure, recognition and discussion with attendees will vary. Conference sponsorship is intended to include related expenses, including food for hospitality, beverages, some lodging for vendor representative(s) and more. The number and reach of benefits vary by sponsorship level. By structuring the sponsorship levels in this way, there is no "nickel-and-diming" of additional costs (e.g., lodging, on-site food, etc.). It will also allow you to focus on the presentation of your showcase, not on making arrangements for food and beverages. If you need special billing arrangements, please indicate your requirements in detail on your sponsor application.
Additional Vendor Attendees / Non-Sponsoring Vendor Attendees
ACPE encourages vendors to attend the conference sessions, meals, and networking events beyond the showcase night to maximize your investment and networking opportunities with participants. In addition to observing which sessions are popular and which are not, hearing from attendees (and participating alongside them) at sessions is a great way to keep your finger on the pulse of K-12 education technology in the Northwest. Also, for vendors who are not sponsoring, attendance at the event is their only option for participation.
The fee for vendor attendance/membership if you are NOT a sponsor is $1500. Each sponsor level includes some free/discounted registrations. Check each sponsor level for details. Anyone from your company attending the conference, not using one of the included free/discounted registrations, must register and pay the regular participant fee to attend.
