Barcelona Summit Updates & Clarification
by Claire Massey 14 Jun '16

14 Jun '16

Hi all, Friendly reminder - sponsorship sales for the Barcelona Summit open tomorrow! Details below. We’ve received a few questions regarding evening events at the upcoming Barcelona Summit so wanted to clarify one thing - the OpenStack Foundation is *not* organizing a community evening event in Barcelona. Quaack, the event producer that helped us produce the StackCity official community evening event in Austin, is organizing a few events around the Summit in Barcelona. Please note that these Barcelona evening events are independently organized by Quaack and the Foundation is not underwriting them, processing the sponsorships, or involved in the event production or promotion. I hope these Barcelona evening events are a great success and if you choose to sponsor them I’m sure they’ll be a valuable investment. Fun and memorable evening events really enhance the overall Summit experience for attendees. Just wanted to clarify that these events are not being led by the Foundation. SPONSORSHIP SALES <https://www.openstack.org/summit/barcelona-2016/sponsors/#how-to-sponsor> Tomorrow, Wednesday, June 15, sponsorship sales will open at 8:00am PST (15:00 UTC). At that time the executable electronic contract will be made available for signature under the “How to Sign the Agreement” section. All sponsorships will be sold on a first-come basis determined by the time stamp on completed electronic agreements. The top level sponsorships and limited quantity add-ons always sell out quickly so please be mindful of that. Full details of the sponsorship signing process are outlined here <https://www.openstack.org/summit/barcelona-2016/sponsors/#how-to-sponsor> and on page 4 of the Prospectus <https://www.openstack.org/assets/barcelona-summit/Barcelona-Sponsorship-Pro…>. Once you execute the Barcelona Summit contract you will receive a confirmation email from Echosign, you must click the link in that email to complete the signing process. Don’t forget that last step! If you have any overdue balances owed to the Foundation then these must be paid in full before you sign the Summit contract. CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS <https://www.openstack.org/summit/barcelona-2016/call-for-presentations/> Encourage your teams to submit talks for the Barcelona Summit. July 13 is the Call for Presentations (CFP) submission deadline. Submit talks HERE <https://www.openstack.org/summit/barcelona-2016/call-for-presentations/>.
