Call for sponsors is now closed. Thank you for your interest. You can consider sponsoring other WordCamps such as WordCamp Udaipur<\/a> and WordCamp Kochi<\/a>.<\/strong><\/pre>\n
WordCamp Pune is the largest\u00a0WordCamp in India in terms of the number of participants. Last year, we had 500 participants from 6 countries and we are expecting the same number this year.<\/p>\n
We follow the same format as last year with multiple tracks sprinkled with multiple short breaks to prevent fatigue so attendees don\u2019t switch out. Long meal breaks will be opportunities to have conversations with each other and possibly you, the sponsor. In addition, we’ll place a little extra\u00a0focus this time\u00a0on networking as we plan more systematic interactive activities in the areas where the sponsor stalls are located.<\/p>\n
We need help from friendly sponsors like you to deliver this experience and in return, you participate in a common environment of sharing, learning and networking.<\/p>\n
In doing so you reach out to a massive community\u00a0of programmers (Pune is developer dominated), bloggers, marketers, students and SMEs (lot of WordPress agencies) in Pune and an unbelievably large and fascinating global community as well.<\/p>\n
However, do hurry up because we’ll close this call as soon as we reach our funding goals like last year<\/a>. (We had to turn away quite a few sponsors.)<\/p>\n
(Please note that the following doesn’t include service tax as it is collected as a reverse charge where the sponsor (you) are liable to pay service tax on your end on the sponsorship amount, not the service provider (us). Ask your tax consultant about this. See:\u00a0http:\/\/www.cbec.gov.in\/resources\/\/htdocs-servicetax\/st-profiles\/sponsorship.pdf<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
If you are from outside India, we have mentioned the package cost in USD*<\/strong> right next to the cost in INR. It doesn’t convert exactly but we want to be covered in terms of Foreign Exchange laws and regulations<\/em>)<\/p>\n
