I've never considered myself a sales person, so the process of talking to potential sponsors for the Mashup has been a learning experience (like everything else related to this event!). I couldn't be happier about the A-list sponsors who have signed on so far:

Founding Sponsor:
Yahoo!

Sponsors
C & R Research
Gaia Online
Hearst Digital Media
Photobucket
RockYou

And our Exhibitors:
dayZLoop
GOOD Magazine
Gorilla Soapbox (who is also recording the event!)
Swivel Media

There are still sponsorship opportunities available, I wanted to share them with you in case you know of a company or brand who would be a fit and benefit from exposure at the 2007 Mashup. Here's what's left:

- The Music Mashup (great opportunity for a music oriented brand to own this pre-conference, which is filling up fast)
- Mobile Sponsor/Speaker
- Ehibitor tables
- Opening or closing reception (opening includes Secondhand Serenade performance, closing includes Mortified performance)
- Breaks (we will need them with this packed schedule!)
- Wireless (get your company's name on whatever we hand out with info on how to log in to get your internet access)
- Bag sponsor
- Event podcasts (your branding goes at the beginning and end!)

If you're interested in signing on to sponsor anything in the list I just rattled off, please contact Charles Pelton at Modern Media. He'll hook you up!
