FOSS4G 2011 Discounts
Back to FOSS4G_2011...
DRAFT - for discussion purposes only
Presenters, Posters, Panelists and Lightning Talks
"Early Bird" pricing is designed to help provide substantial discounts to committed conference attendees, including all of these different forms of presenters. Unlike some conferences, presenters are not required to show proof of registration prior to submitting presentation proposals. This allows those who are not selected to present to still have full freedom to choose whether to attend or not.
- No further discounts are available to presenters.
Sponsors
- Platinum - 6 comps
- Gold - 4 comps
- Silver - 2 comps
- Bronze - 1 comp
Exhibitors
- Exhibitors do not receive any comps (apart from those included with sponsorship packages)
Keynotes
- Keynote / plenary speakers do not in general receive a discount. At the discretion of the LOC, a small number of speakers may receive complimentary registration. In general comps are likely to be reserved for invited speakers who would not otherwise attend the conference.
