Equipment

Possible needs:

screen? wired internet?

Please note: per july 2017 a new logo design and collateral update is under way

stickers to be printed (preferably locally)
OSGEo Flyer(s) to be printed (preferably locally)

Banners to be printed locally:

Old: http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/marketing/exhibitionpack/
I suggest both: OSGeo_popup and OSGeo_popup2
Ask printer/see on printer-site, whether  the PDF of SVG format is needed. Silk finish or silk matt finish for readability  (light glare during exhibitions is high)

Brochure:

Old: OSGeo_Brochure_2010_PRINT_A4_spread.pdf
(this is single A4 back and front)
New brochure to be printed locally
I suggest minimum paperweight of 100 gram paper, silk or silk matt finished.
Ask printer to fold, preferably not do so yourself (bothersome and never a crips bend)
Usually I count max 100 brochures per exhibition day on average. Now, 300 will do I expect.

Table runner
