Re: [openstack-community] Seeking OpenStack Days East Sponsorship Funding [3]
by Haisam Ido 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Dear OpenStack Days East Sponsors and Supporters, Thank you for considering sponsoring this year’s OpenStack Days East <http://openstackdayseast.com/> conference which is planned to be in the city of Washington, DC, in mid to late August. The event will have focus on the Government sector, as well as containerizations, Kubernetes, DevOps practices, provisioning, orchestration, and offer OpenStack training. We are currently favoring the Marriott Marquis <https://www.google.com/search?q=Marriott+Marquis+dc&newwindow=1&source=lnms…>, a state of the art hotel, ideally situated in the heart of cosmopolitan Washington, DC, where museums, the White House, and the US Capitol are only minutes away. In order to successfully execute this event, we will need sponsors to assist financially with securing both the event planner, which we have selected <http://www.rgievents.com/>, as well as the venue, in order to successfully execute this event. We will need financial support from sponsors by March 27th. Unfortunately, if we don’t receive funding by that date the conference will have to be delayed significantly or cancelled entirely. The proposed <https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B28O7k5mIZSiV3k3U2RNVEpVYVk>sponsorship levels that we developed can be found here <https://goo.gl/Ip5usD>. Also, the sponsorship agreement can be found here <https://goo.gl/7GNTTQ> for your review and consideration. We will follow up with you to discuss how your organization can be part of this exciting conference, and answer any questions you may have! Ms. Suzie Grieco <https://www.linkedin.com/in/sg2recruiting> will be contacting you; however, if you have any questions before that, feel free to contact her at +1-703-675-6286 <(703)%20675-6286>. Thank you very much in advance, and we look forward to working with you.

[openstack-community] OpenStack Days East Looking for Sponsors & Leads! [2]
by Haisam Ido 28 Feb '17

28 Feb '17

Dear OpenStack Sponsors and Supporters, Thanks go to the companies who have shown an interest in sponsoring the upcoming OpenStack Days <https://www.openstack.org/community/events/openstackdays/> East 2017 conference. As you may have heard, we are excited to announce that OpenStack Days <https://www.openstack.org/community/events/openstackdays/> East 2017 will be in the city of Washington, DC, with tentative dates in mid to late August, 2017. The two day event will have a focus on the Government sector, amongst many others, such as containerization, DevOps practices, provisioning, orchestration and more. *We have found a promising venue, and an event planner for this conference but the next hurdle is to find companies that are willing to directly pay for the deposits for both the venue and the event planner, and to co-lead the effort with the current volunteers. This would be happening while the sponsorship money is coming in. If you are interested please contact us immediately via email, and fill out this form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwu6FpGIQ6zis-F99E_oWMdWJ8olXKyp5…>. Without this crucial step it is unlikely for the conference to proceed.* OpenStackDC <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStackDC/>, OpenStack-Northern Virginia <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Nova/>, OpenStack-Baltimore <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/>, VA OpenStack Users <https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4762393/>, and several other east coast OpenStack groups will be organizing the OpenStack Days East 2017 event. In order to proceed in earnest, with the planning, we are soliciting a tentative sponsorship commitment from your company for this event. Last year’s sponsorship costs can be found here <https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B28O7k5mIZSiODN6enZROU1EV1lBeE91ekNmbmIxT…>, which may differ in 2017. All sponsorship levels are currently available for 2017. If your company is interested in sponsoring this conference, please fill out this form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwu6FpGIQ6zis-F99E_oWMdWJ8olXKyp5…> . As you know OpenStack Days East <http://www.openstackeast.com/>, in NYC <http://www.openstackeast.com/location/> last year, was a resounding success. Some of the companies that sponsored the 2016 event were HP Enterprise, Red Hat, SUSE, Canonical, Dell, and IBM. The full list of 2016 sponsors can be found here <http://www.openstackeast.com/sponsors/>. We look forward to hearing back from you soon. Thank you very much in advance. Thank you very much in advance and we look forward to working with you. Best Regards, Haisam Ido <https://groups.openstack.org/users/haisam-ido>, OpenStackDC <https://groups.openstack.org/groups/dc-washington-dc> Organizer Shilla Saebi <https://www.openstack.org/community/speakers/profile/148>, OpenStack-Northern Virginia <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Nova/> Organizer James Genus <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/members/146903662/> Jr., OpenStack-Baltimore <https://www.meetup.com/OpenStack-Baltimore/> Organizer Trevor Lowing <https://www.linkedin.com/in/trevorlowing>, VA OpenStack Users <https://www.linkedin.com/groups/4762393/> Organizer
