This repo is for submitting a request for an event sponsorship. To get started submit an issue.
There are three types of event sponsorship to choose from:
- In-kind sponsorship
- Financial sponsorship
- Individual sponsorship
In-kind Sponsorship
Are you hosting a .NET Conf Watch Party? A community event? A developer conference? You may request stickers/t-shirts/swag and promotional assistance. Requests should include date, location, anticipated number of attendees, and event description/focus. Please make your request no later than four weeks prior to the event kickoff.
Financial Sponsorship
If you are interested in having the .NET Foundation sponsor your upcoming event or meeting, please include date, location, anticipated number of attendees, event description/focus, sponsorship level/cost and benefits of sponsorship. Requests must be made no later than four weeks prior to your event or meeting.
Individual Sponsorship
If you would like to attend an event as a .NET Foundation representative, please provide full detail of the event, event opportunity, requested amount of sponsorship, and benefit to the .NET Foundation.
We will accept proposals based on our budget and priorities. We will ask the following questions in your submission and prioritize accordingly.
- Does the sponsorships provide an opportunity to evangelize the benefits of the .NET platform to a wider community of developers and/or enable the .NET Foundation to promote the benefits of the open source model to developers already using .NET?
- Has the requestor and/or event received sponsorship from the Foundation in the past 12 months?
- How many people will be reached?
- Is the event/meeting inclusive?
- Are there co-marketing opportunities?
- What is given in exchange for the funds/swag?
The .NET Foundation will only sponsor and support events and meetings with a clear and published Code of Conduct. Any event or meetings sponsored by the .NET Foundation (in-kind, financially, or otherwise) should provide an inclusive, harassment-free experience to all of its attendees and participants, regardless of gender, gender identity and expressions, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, age, religion or lack thereof.
Anyone who receives sponsorship will be expected to provide a report within 2 weeks of the event ending using this form.
