Sponsoring the SLCC
The 5th Annual Second Life Community Convention will be held at the famed Westin St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco August 13-16, 2009. http://www.westinstfrancis.com The SLCC represents the time and place where real people from around the world come face-to-face with their avatar colleagues and respected industry leaders. The Business Track, the Education Track and the Music Track are the anchors of this year’s SLCC.
We have a wide variety of sponsorship packages with some very affordable options, allow-ing you to participate in the SLCC at any level. You can be a sponsor in subtle ways, show-ing your support with an advertisement in the official program, or in a big way, sharing the spotlight. Either way, you are strongly urged to act quickly. To view SLCC09 Sponsorship Details, click here: http://www.slconvention.org/sponsors/sponsorship-details/
The sooner you confirm, the longer you stretch your sponsorship dollar. Registering by mid-June gives you a jump-start of nearly eight weeks of recognition on web, all major so-cial networks and in Second Life®. Simply peruse the http://www.slconvention.org site and register.
The SLCC Music Track is also looking for sponsorship towards specific needs including the Musicians Ball, equipment rental, give aways, and more! Let us know what you have in mind. Previous sponsors have chosen to supply gadgets, product samples, customized banners, the welcome reception buffet, t-shirts, and other things of interest. Every ounce of support is recognized and appreciated. Contact us with your creative sponsorship ideas and let’s work something out.
Organized by dedicated real life professionals in SL™, the SLCC will attract an estimated 700 to 1000 people from key demographics, essentially 25-55 year-old educated profes-sionals. The average SLCC attendee spends a great deal of time online. They own lap-tops, iPhones, iPods, BlackBerry’s, and are actively participating in the social web via blogs, virtual worlds, and social networks like facebook, plurk and twitter. They are tech-savvy, adventurous, enterprising and social. They are masters of 3D virtual spaces, social networks, big discussions and small talk. They are the epitome of modern online culture.
Participating in the SLCC09 enables you to easily reach a powerful and creative online community. Members of the Second Life community are market-movers. They are re-spected beta-testers, bloggers, developers, designers, educators and consumers. Reach-ing this audience any other way would cost you far greater time and money. We are offer-ing a relatively inexpensive, yet valuable connection with the very people who use your products, those who should use your products and those who can potentially help you de-velop better products and increase your sales.

Live Performance Co-Chairs, Lyndon Heart and Cylindrian Rutabaga have a full schedule of live musicians to perform in this year’s SLCC. They are also including avatar participa-tion from within Second Life in this special Live show, demonstrating how to produce a ‘mixed reality’ event.
The Musician’s Ball will be a music enthusiast and social networker’s Eden, offering live performance in a comfortable, yet sophisticated party atmosphere with hundreds of friends and colleagues in both the real and virtual world. There will be many photo oppor-tunities at this event.
