Request for sponsorship of Atlanta Spring User Group

[Roy Clarkson]

I am an organizer of the The Atlanta Spring User Group. We are sponsored by eHire, a local recruiting firm. They cover the cost of the room rental, as well as pizza & soft drinks for each meeting. O'Reilly often sponsors with book raffles too. I had a few ideas for Spring/VMware sponsorship.

1. for our upcoming meeting on January 22, I would like to raffle a ticket for the upcoming DevNexus conference in February. Since VMware/Spring is sponsoring DevNexus and we have several people presenting, this would be a nice addition.

2. Occasionally, it would be nice to support speakers traveling to Atlanta. Currently the group does not have any budget for assisting speakers to travel to Atlanta.

3. Provide one or two current Spring related books each meeting for raffle.

Hi Roy,

What great ideas! Let me check in with the team regarding travel support and DevNexus tickets and I'll get back to you.

I can however provide you several digital copies of the Spring Data book that was just published. I'll message you via email regarding these.

Best,
