Have you thought about the possibilty that you could have your employer sponsor Meeting C++ 2024?

As an organization Meeting C++ gets its funding through sponsorship and ticket sales for the conference mostly.

Sponsoring Meeting C++ gives you (or your employer) great visibility in the C++ community. Meeting C++ has a unique reach into the C++ community and works actively with sponsors to reach their goals. Exhibition space is also available for being present with a booth in Berlin. Though booth places are limited. Video sponsorships are not availalbe anymore, as already three sponsors have signed up for this.

If you are hiring, Gold and Platin Sponsors also have access to the Meeting C++ candidate listing in the recruiting section. This gives sponsors access to potential candidates and lets them peak into what the Meeting C++ online job fair offers in candidates.

The other sponsorship details have not changed to last year, as we run the conference in a very similar setup. So like last year, the sponsorship ranges from 500 € for online sponsor to 6000 € for Platin sponsors, with an onsite booth being optional available to gold, video and platin sponsors at 1000 €. As booth space is limited at the location, each sponsor can choose their own location from the list of still available booths.

Unlocking more potential for C++

Over the years, I have been in contact with various companies for sponsoring. But I feel that this could be more and better, if only the right people in an organization would know about the potential of sponsoring Meeting C++. This is where you can help, you know how Meeting C++ connects many people in the community, be it with supporting User Groups, C++ Bloggers or the conference itself. You also might know the right contact in your organization for sponsoring, which can have many incentives. Such as HR, presenting Tools and Software for developers and/or showing your SDK/Framework to the C++ Community. So maybe you could contact them, if sponsoring Meeting C++ 2024 is an option for your company?

I'd like to integrate more companies into the Meeting C++ Network to help the C++ community. The conference is mostly funded by the ticket sales, but sponsoring is a huge help to make Meeting C++ and C++ Evangelism my everyday job. But community work is often cherished, but not valued enough by companies, this is why I only will work with companies that are also sponsors. I want to thank my current sponsors (and those from the recent years) for supporting my work!
