Become a Sponsor

If your company supplies products or services that help people work together, this conference will be of interest to you. Sponsoring this conference will enhance your stature as a leader in this field and provide you a unique opportunity to access and recruit experts in the field. Conference attendees include leading researchers, developers and graduate students from top Universities worldwide. CSCW 2004 had nearly 500 attendees from all over the world, representing the computer industry, telecommunications, research institutions, and major users of technology including government and education. The Conference Proceedings, published by ACM Press, are distributed worldwide. The conference also receives press coverage.

The conference recognizes three levels of contribution: Corporate Contributors, Corporate Benefactors and - especially for CSCW 2006 - 20th Anniversary Benefactors. If at all possible, we urge you to consider becoming a Corporate Benefactor of CSCW 2006 by contributing US$10,000 or more. Benefactors are very important to the conference, and the conference committee ensures that their contributions are well recognized. We list the benefits below. In addition, the generous support of corporate sponsors in the past has enabled truly great CSCW conferences. Another great opportunity for your company, as a benefactor, to support the conference and increase your corporate exposure is to have a booth in our demo space at the conference itself. Demo booths offer a way to showcase your company's innovative products, services and activities.

If you are interested in sponsoring CSCW 2006, or if you have any questions, please contact us at sponsorship@cscw2006.org.

We hope you will be part of CSCW 2006!
