European Software Conference

The ESWC (e.V.) welcomes you to become a Sponsor of the European Software Conference. The 8th annual European Software Conference will take place on the 8th and 9th of November in Berlin, Germany. As the only European annual event for companies employing the shareware marketing model, the ESWC offers a unique and unrivalled opportunity for software developers, distribution companies and service providers to come together, exchange ideas and work together.

Previous years have seen a steady increase in the number of attendees, and what began as little more than an exploratory experiment has blossomed into a vibrant and established event. The ESWC is built on the basis of offering and sharing opportunities, and our policy has been to keep the costs down to an absolute minimum, so as to encourage the participation of even the smallest and newest of companies. We therefore rely heavily on the support and generosity of our sponsors to help subsidise the cost, so as to continue to keep the event open to all who wish to participate.

By signing up as sponsor you declare that you agree with conditions as shown below. - independent from the actual sending of the contract in written form. But for the correct and complete validity of the sponsor contract please download, print, fill out, sign this document and fax it to: 49-721 - 151 - 575954 (Fax) or send it per postal mail.
