Be Part of a Bigger and Better Avatars 97!
Reserve Your Sponsorship Today

Sponsorship for Earth to Avatars 96 sold out quickly and we expect to do so again this year. As a charter Consortium supporter, we are contacting you first, before general sponsorship opens up on September 10th.

Our partnership with San Francisco State University Multimedia Studies Program brings us to a high quality facility in the heart of downtown San Francisco. Avatars 97 is expanded over last year and is running three days: October 22-24th. There will be exhibits, more extensive tracks on the culture, technology and applications of virtual worlds, scheduled demo times, live avacasts from the beam-in teleport, three terrific evening events, and of course, the annual Avvy Awards! Press coverage is expected to be great again, with national and international TV, magazine, newspaper and online news services returning.

Sponsorship is available at many levels and guarantees product and brand presence at this unique and widely watched event. Preference will be given to sponsors who are currently members of the Contact Consortium. You can join the Contact Consortium as part of your sponsorship.

Join the Human Race in Cyberspace, don't be left behind at Avatars 97!
