Offering your support by sponsoring a RIPE Meeting is a great way to increase the visibility of your organisation among the global Internet community. Your brand will be associated with a long-standing, professionally organised event that is well regarded by the engineers, top-level IT managers and government representatives who attend.
There are a number of sponsorship options available, and our RIPE NCC Meeting Coordinator will work with you to ensure the sponsorship option you choose is tailored to your specific needs. There is plenty of room for creative ideas – so long as they will help make this the best RIPE Meeting yet!
Social Event Sponsor – ± EUR 10,000-25,000
RIPE Meetings run over five days. Each evening ends with a social event – an integral part of RIPE meetings, and an opportunity for our attendees to unwind, network, and get to know one another in a relaxed setting. Some of the more lively events form the basis of stories and legends that last far beyond the end of the RIPE Meeting!
The cost of sponsoring a social event usually starts at EUR 10,000 and depends on the location and specifics of the event. Past social events have included boat tours, cocktail parties, receptions in historical venues, and formal dinners
