Hi David, Very disappointed to hear this.
Has removing this sponsor and letting one of the many companies willing to sponsor take their place? From what I understand there are quite a few big names willing to take a sponsorship slot. It shouldn't just be about what a sponsor wants when we're talking about an event built around an industry that functions more like a community.
