BarCamp Sarasota, where the hottest conversations in technology and business happen, is a grass-roots business, technology and education movement that supports entrepreneurs and small business people in Southwest Florida – from Tampa Bay to Naples. BarCamp Sarasota is one of the largest and fastest growing entrepreneurial support groups in the state, and we provide access to over 2500 members of our social networks.

BarCamp Sarasota Lunch and Learn: More than one way to page one

Community interest is high for our events, and we would like to provide you with a special opportunity to support business growth within our community by sponsoring our events for the last half of 2011. Coming up this fall, BarCamp Sarasota is holding its fourth “un-conference” event on Saturday and Sunday, October 15 & 16, 2011 at the G.WIZ Science Museum in Sarasota. We have monthly Lunch & Learn events at the Mad Crow Brewpub in Sarasota on the 3rd Friday of the month, and social events at Shakespeare’s Pub every 1st Thursday. All our FREE community events provide an opportunity for sponsors to connect with our membership to share conversations on a variety of interesting topics.

How is it possible that membership and all BarCamp Sarasota events are free to attendees? Unlike other community groups that charge attendees, BarCamp Sarasota depends on our sponsors to provide money and resources to run events. Sponsors support services such as the venue costs, attendee lunches and snacks, t-shirts, marketing materials and banners, event signs, website management, and other operating costs.

Benefits of sponsorship, depending on the level chosen, include displaying your logo on our event

Joy Randels Spring 2011 Conference

 banners and conference t-shirts, your company logo and business listing on our website with multiple links back to your site to help increase your SEO results, business name included in press releases, and we name the rooms for our sponsors during our conference events. Details of sponsorship are included in the attached flyer, where you’ll find a variety of ways you can sponsor our events.

Visit the conference event website  and see a sampling of speaker bios and topics. At our conference events, you’re welcome to speak on any topic you’re passionate about (these are topical, and not sales presentations), and we provide a variety of ways in which you can sponsor the event.

Now is the time to act to ensure your logo is included in our marketing material, and website links are up well before the conference event so you get maximum link traction. Check out and/or print this flyer for event details, and please contact BarCamp Sarasota (sponsor@bcsrq.com) if you’re interested in speaking or sponsoring.

Thank you,
