Sponsoring Pervasive 2007

We are pleased to offer companies the opportunity to be corporate sponsors for the Fifth International Conference on Pervasive Computing, which will take place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from May 13-16, 2007. This annual conference is a premier forum in which to present research results in all areas related to the design, implementation, application and evaluation of pervasive computing technologies, bringing together leading researchers from a variety of disciplines who are exploring advances in computing as it moves beyond the desktop and integrates into our lives.

Building on the success of previous conferences in this series held in Zurich (August 2002), in Linz/Vienna (April 2004), in Munich (May 2005) and in Dublin (May 2006), Pervasive 2007 will include a highly selective single-track program for technical papers, accompanied by posters, videos, demonstrations, workshops, a doctoral colloquium, and an invited plenary speaker. The strong program offered by the conference regularly attracts over 300 delegates from industry and institutions worldwide each year —a number that we expect to grow even higher as Pervasive will be held in North America for the first time ever!

Industry involvement plays an important role in the success of the Pervasive conference. With that in mind, we would like to invite your company to become a major sponsor of Pervasive 2007. We aim to provide good value for the support you offer and have outlined a list of sponsorship opportunities that may suit your requirements. Your contribution will help ensure that we can maintain the highest quality throughout all aspects of what promises to be a truly great conference.

Sponsorship opportunities will be accepted on a first come, first served basis, so please act now to add your company's presence to the conference. We hope you will be part of Pervasive 2007!
