Details on payment options will be provided with the invoice. Fees can be paid in euros (bank transfer, credit card) or US dollars (check, wire transfer, credit card).

Please note that invoices are due on receipt and that your sponsorship does not become active until we receive full payment of the sponsorship fee.

Unique Additional Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsors of Eclipse Summit Europe may add on a reception or meal sponsorship for an additional €1,000 (one thousand). This option is only available to existing sponsors of ESE and the sponsorship is not exclusive. So depending on demand, there may be multiple sponsors for a reception. Choice of reception will be awarded on a first come, first served basis. Additional opportunities for sponsorship are available for Eclipse Summit Europe. To explore ways in which your company can increase its presence and support this unique European event, please contact Ralph Müller, Director, Ecosystems Europe.
