Sponsorship Opportunities

A4  letter

The International Symposium on Graph Drawing GD2003, a premier international conference on information visualization technology, is a traditional forum where researchers and practitioners working on both theoretical and practical aspects of the area annually meet from all over the world. The research contributions presented at the conference are traditionally published in a volume of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series of Springer-Verlag.

In 2003, the 11th edition of the Symposium will be held in Perugia, one of the most ancient and historical Italian cities, located in the center of the Country at the heart of the "Green Umbria" region and close to other famous tourist destinations, including Assisi, Florence, and Siena. Perugia is also the seat of one of European's oldest universities, the State University (founded in 1308), as well as the University for Foreigners (founded in 1925). With over 35,000 students from all over the world, both Universities play an important role in the city life.

We are actively encouraging sponsorships for the 11th International Symposium on Graph Drawing. Sponsorship is available at different levels as listed below. In each case, the sponsoring company is responsible for providing the artwork (company logo) to be included on the publications and promotional material.
