How to Become a Sponsor
First: Sign the Master Event Sponsorship Agreement● You must sign the MSA before you sign the Vancouver Summit Sponsorship
Contract● The executable MSA is available here:
www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2018/sponsor● If you have sponsored one or more of the previous OpenStack Summits, then
you have already completed this step.● You will need to know the date that you signed the MSA when you sign the
Vancouver Summit Sponsor Contract. If you are unsure of the date, then please email [email protected].
Second: Sign Vancouver Summit Sponsor Contract● A link to the executable electronic contract will be made available at
www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2018/ on Thursday, December 14 at 11:00am CST / 17:00 UTC
● In recognition of the ongoing support of companies that are Sponsors or Members of the OpenStack Foundation (openstack.org/companies), their contracts will be considered first, for the initial 24 hours after the executable Vancouver Contract goes live on December 14.
● All other contracts will be processed starting 24 hours later on December 15, 2017 at 11:00am CST. From that point forward all sponsorships will be sold on a first come, first served basis determined by the timestamp on completed agreements.
Remember to check your email● After signing the electronic Summit contract you will receive an
email sent from Echosign
● You must click the link in that email to confirm your signature
● Once this step is completed, you have successfully signed the contract. If you do not click the link in the email, then we will not receive your signed contract.
Make sure you don’t have any past due invoices
● If your company has any past due balances owed to the OpenStack Foundation, these invoices will need to be paid in full in order to be eligible to sponsor the Summit.
● Please contact [email protected] if you think you may have any overdue invoices.
Specific to Headline sponsors● Headline level sponsors will be confirmed on a first come, first served basis if
there are four (4) or fewer contracts submitted within the first hour of the executable agreement becoming available.
● In order to create a fair and level playing field, if more than four (4) companies submit signed contracts within the first hour, the Foundation staff will conduct a lottery to draw the four (4) official Headline sponsors.
● The remaining companies that do not secure the Headline sponsorship via lottery will be given the opportunity to re-sign contracts and obtain Premier level sponsorship slots in the order they submitted Headline agreements.
