Call for Sponsors - ICT4S 2023

Become a Sponsor of ICT4S 2023, and expose your organization, company, product or service to hundreds of people interested in ICT and Sustainability (e.g., green IT, ICT for sustainability, etc.).

The following describes available ICT4S 2023 sponsorship opportunities. The international conference series ICT4S (The International Conference on Information and Communications Technology for Sustainability) brings together leading researchers in ICT for Sustainability with government, industry representatives, artists, students and the general public. In 2023, we expect to have 150 researchers in the Research Program, but also a broad representation of the government, industry, arts and education in a comprehensive OFF! Program offering a large set of satellite events (panel, debate, art performances, keynotes, hackathon). Therefore, as a sponsor of ICT4S’23, your organization will have a unique opportunity to gain visibility as well as to interact with the various communities involved.

To become a sponsor or simply ask any question about our sponsorship opportunities please send an email to the general co-chair Benoit Combemale (benoit.combemale@irisa.fr). In your request, please indicate a) the sponsorship level you are interested in (see below) and b) an overview of what you wish to promote at the conference (e.g., tool, service, organization membership, book etc.).

DISCLAIMER

Sponsors at all levels need to take note of the following:

Sponsorship funds will in part be used to reduce costs of participation in the conference by attendees, and in part to enhance services and quality of events. Use of funds will be at the discretion of the conference organizers.
Selection of papers, keynote speakers, workshops, formal demonstrations, tutorials and other program elements will be based on scientific merit and be performed by peer review independent of all sponsors.
Sponsors who also participate in peer review will be asked to declare any conflicts of interest that may arise.
Competitors may be present as sponsors, or as presenters at various sessions.
Papers or talks may contain material critical of your company, products or services. In the interest of free speech and freedom from bias, the conference will not take any steps to suppress such material, although we will help ensure all material is in good taste.
The organizers reserve the right to limit sponsorship to sponsors relevant to the objectives of the conference.
Sponsors will be asked to sign a formal agreement outlining the responsibilities of each party.
Sponsors are asked to participate in helping promote the conference.
Other sponsors may have negotiated different arrangements than those indicated on this page.
In the case of a cancellation due to force majeure of part or all of the conference, or other difficulties such as travel restrictions caused by world events, priority will be given to refunding attendees fees (in whole or in part as possible). Refunding of sponsorships would only occur to the extent that there are funds available, after other expenses and contractual obligations are covered. Sponsors would still be listed on the conference website.
