Eclipse European Marketing Working Group
Call Minutes on Eclipse Booth at CeBIT
January 27, 2010 at 3:00 pm CET

Next Call: Tuesday, February 2 at 3:30pm CET (see registration details at bottom of email)

-CeBIT takes place March 2-6, 2010 in Hanover, Germany and is expected to have 5,500 visitors http://www.cebit.de
-Eclipse member companies have the opportunity to participate in an "Eclipse Island"
-The Eclipse Island will be centrally located in CeBIT's Open Source Park, Hall 2
-The island can hold 4 to 7 exhibitor stands
-Eclipse will be the overall branding/signage for the area, but the individual stands will have signage identifying each participating member
-4 members have committed to participate so we will go ahead: Actuate, Bredex, EclipseSource and Sopera
-There is still an opportunity for 3 (possibly more) members to participate
-Cost is 2500 EUR for a working place - the 300 EUR listing fee has been waived for us and if more than 4 companies join, there is potential for a further price reduction
