What is the value of participating in this event?
We believe everyone will find value in joining us for the high-quality content that is expected from a KubeCon + CloudNativeCon event. Our open source communities inspire us to be resilient – to adapt and thrive with speed and consideration, immersed in the goal of bringing together a distributed group of people from around the globe. It’s in the DNA of the open source community to connect, learn and collaborate, therefore, what better place to do so than one of the premier open source developer conferences in the world?
What happens if the event can’t be held in-person?
Given the continuing fluidity of COVID-19, the format of the event is subject to change. If this should happen, sponsors will be notified of said changes and options available to them as early as possible.
When will access to the sponsor portal (ERC) be provided?
We are looking to provide access to confirmed sponsors by early January so you can get started on planning your deliverables. Our sponsor services team will be in touch with updates as we get closer to the event.
What information will be provided in the leads report that sponsors receive?
Included in sponsor reports are the names, job titles, company names, email addresses, and physical work addresses (if provided) of all attendees who visited the sponsor’s virtual booth space and/or got their name badge scanned at the sponsor’s onsite booth. Phone numbers will not be shared. More information on lead reporting will be provided in the sponsor portal.
Will a breakdown of attendees be provided to sponsors?
We will share a list of attending companies with all sponsors twice prior to the event. This list will include the company names only but no contact information. After the event, all sponsors will receive a detailed transparency report with overall attendee statistics and demographics, event highlights, and media coverage. Attendee contact information will not be shared.
