Every 3-4 months Linaro hosts Linaro Connect, an event defining the future of Linux on ARM...

The event pulls together over 300 participants, ranging from kernel hackers to integration engineers to ARM SoC industry executives to present, discuss and develop features,  infrastructure and optimizations for the Linux kernel, Android, Ubuntu and beyond.  This five-day event is made up of keynote plenary sessions, engineering, track sessions and social events. Annually we look to hold Linaro Connect once in Asia (LCA), once in the United States (LCU) and once in Europe (LCE) to cater for our world class engineering team distributed globally.

Why sponsor Linaro Connect?

Linaro Connect is growing! With just two years of Connect behind us we have already established it as 'the' event anyone interested in Linux on ARM must attend.  We will promote your brand and give you high visibility to the event attendees - both the 300 onsite and all those who participate remotely and view the website before, during and after the event.

The below table appears complex, but this is a reflection of the value that the various sponsor levels offer. For as little as $10,000 for members or $12,000 for non-members, your company can be a bronze sponsor in front of all the hundreds of daily visitors to the event website and the 300+ attending engineers and their managers at every coffee break during the event. This is a unique opportunity for companies to get in front of these engineers. For companies who would like Linaro Connect to be located in a specific place, we offer a Gold Location sponsorship level - pending agreement on the location, this will not only provide maximum exposure for your company, it could also significantly reduce your travel and possibly also accommodation costs. Sponsorship funds are used to improve the Linaro Connect events for the sponsors and attendees and companies can be assured that, as a not-for-profit, Linaro is always looking for the most efficient way to deliver the best possible experience and engineering effectiveness. If you would like to provide another from of sponsorship, e.g. media or hardware, please contact connect@linaro.org for more information.  We're open to most forms of cooperation.
