-In past years, the Eclipse Foundation has purchased a Plug-in sponsorship and then member companies took turns staffing the booth
-Plug-in sponsorship (the lowest level) is 3,000 eur and gives a pedestal in the exhibition hall, logo in the printed program and logo on the website

-Bumping up a level to Base sponsorship is 7,800 eur and adds booth space of 6 sqm, a list of conference participants (name, company, country only – no emails), 4 conference passes and an insert in the newsletter

-Eclipse budgeted for Plug-in sponsorship but would need volunteers to staff 17 two-hour slots at the booth

-Extra funds to move up to Base sponsorship would have to come from members sharing the cost

-Last year we had 5 people from 5 member companies volunteer, but they each had to take 3-4 shifts
