Penguicon is an all-volunteer not-for-profit convention which brings together developers and enthusiasts of free and open source software with that of science fiction creativity. We get to watch what happens when we introduce imaginative and well-informed visionaries to the technologists who are creating the future.

About 1100 to 1,400 people attend Penguicon every year. These include entrepreneurs, potential employees, sales decision-makers, and early adopters. Everyone they know turns to them for technology advice. Promoting your product or service to them will build on itself through word of mouth, starting the word of mouth ball rolling.

Fan-run science fiction conventions and open source software development are two communities that generate financial value for the things they are passionate about. But in order for that to work, the cost for the enthusiasts to participate must be kept low. Help us make it financially easy for our users and fans to join this word-of-mouth network, and put that network to work for your company. Do you believe in spending your promotional dollars to build a community of passionate users? Here are two communities renowned for it, gathered in one place.

We welcome creative ideas for sponsorship arrangements. Other sponsorships will be quoted on request. Please contact us at [email protected] for more details.
