| SPONSORS AND SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES |
ICANN appreciates the support of the community in providing
financial sponsorship for ICANN meetings. This sponsorship
is a vital part of enabling ICANN to provide quality programs
for meeting attendees. In particular, such generous sponsorship
allows ICANN to hold its meetings in geographically diverse
locations that allows broader participation across the world's
Internet community.
For the Bucharest meeting, sponsorship will provide support
for many meeting functions and activities, such as: meeting
space, coffee/tea breaks, evening receptions, international
bandwidth, telephone services for secretariat, transportation
from hotels to the meeting venue, simultaneous translation,
gifts, luncheon for attendees, etc.
Sponsors will be acknowledged in conference documents, as
well as on the host website. Designated space will be provided
for Top, Second, and Third Level sponsors (see below) to distribute
company materials. Since this meeting is not a tradeshow,
an organization that is not a sponsor will not be permitted
to distribute commercial materials in the meeting area itself
outside of the designated space.
ICANN reserves the right not to accept sponsorships from
organizations whose missions and activities conflict with
ICANN policies.
Sponsorship Opportunities
Three Levels of Sponsorship are available:
- Top Level: US$15,000
- Second Level: US$10,000
- Third Level: US$5,000
