Sponsorships?

[James Carr]

So while I was down in Memphis speaking at the MemphisJUG I discovered
that Atlassian has a usergroup program (which I have since signed up
for and waiting to hear back from). I know JetBrains also sponsors
usergroups with giveaways like intelliJ licenses and such, but what
other companies are good to hit up for sponsorship? Just to help out
funding things like hotel stays, flights, etc. For the most part my
ComoRichWeb has been local devs but it'd be awesome to get big names
in town once in a while.

Thanks,
James

I had no idea that JetBrains sponsored user groups. I sent a solicitation
for STL ALT.NET; hopefully we can get sponsored :-)

Thanks,
James

Contegix was trying to sponsor an Atlassian user group here but I'm
not sure it ever found enough interest to get off the ground.

Oracle supports Java user groups. O'Reilly has a user group program
that gives out books, I think.

Red Gate will also sponsor .NET user groups:
