Hi Ivet, all,
Thanks for starting this thread. While my work organisation, ShapeBlue,
has been participating and sponsoring the CCC every year, I think it's
important for all organisations who use CloudStack and benefit from
CloudStack to make such conferences and events sustainable and funding
and sponsoring is an obvious way to do that.
Having CCC not only allow all of us to meet in person, attend talks,
learn and collaborate with each other, this also serves as a constant
heartbeat for the community and a platform to discuss, build consensus
and drive the future of the project and for anybody considering or
using CloudStack to network, discover and learn about the project and
its community.
Regards.
Regards.

Hello all,
I would like to bring in a serious topic for the yearly CloudStack
Collaboration Conference 2024.
I would like to remind everyone, that the event is organised by a group
of volunteers and we rely entirely on sponsorship from the community,
so that we can organise the event.
Organising such event is a costly thing - we need to pay for venue, for
video recording, catering, ad materials, promoting the event. On a
daily basis, I get a lot of questions for free tickets and people
really excited to join the event. On the other hand, we have just a few
inquiries for sponsorship.
Finding more sponsors is something really vital, so that we can have
the event. For this reason, I would ask for some community help - could
you all evangelise for the event internally in your companies and help
me find more sponsors?
I am attaching here the event sponsorship prospectus.
I do not want to sound too harsh, but we need funding in order to have
an event. Otherwise, it will not be possible.
Best regards,
