NEW OpenStack Summit Tech Trivia Booth Crawl
by Kelly Gotelli 12 Mar '16

12 Mar '16

OpenStack Summit • Austin 2016 Dear Sponsors, As many of you know, OpenStack is planning a Booth Crawl Happy Hour on Monday evening, April 25 from 6:00-7:30pm to welcome all attendees to the OpenStack Summit in Austin. All sponsors are required to staff their booth during this event. This year, we’d like to help attendees get to know you and your company better with our brand new TECH TRIVIA GAME — a fun and interactive way to make to new connections and increase your brand awareness, all in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. To participate, you simply need to submit your unique trivia info and serve a food and/or beverage item from your booth during the Booth Crawl. See attached for details. Refreshments: We suggest that you plan on serving a minimum of 550 people, as we expect at least 3,500 attendees to pass through the Marketplace during the Crawl. The more refreshments you serve, the more opportunities you naturally have to interact with the attendees. Attached you will find a selection of available food and beverage items from the Austin Convention Center Catering department, exclusive Summit caterer. To avoid duplication between sponsors, OpenStack must APPROVE your participation and the item(s) being served. Please send your request to Sarah Krawiecki [sarah(a)fntech.com<mailto:sarah@fntech.com>] by Friday, March 11, and specifically list which items you would like to serve. (Items will be available on a first come, first requested basis.) Once your request is confirmed, Sarah will provide you with the name and contact info of your onsite catering contact. Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to let us know. We look forward to hearing from you!
