Sponsorship & Exhibition & * Organisation Pre-Business Day 23.8.2016
- Hinrich Paulsen, Arnulf Christl
- Sponsorship is a source where we can generate early income, so to start this process early is a major part. Also I guess, that most companies are planning their financial budget this year, so it is important to let them know about the possibilities of sponsoring FOSS4G.

- Gert-Jan van der Weijden, Marc Vloemans, Codrina Ilie
- I talked to Textkoch this FOSSGIS and he offered his help together with Monika Resch here (of course not for free :-(). Public relations work may play a major role to get many people attending our conference. So for this issues we need a group of people and also ideas on how to structure this.
