Reach digital preservation, archiving, access and technology leaders and developers

Sponsorship opportunities are available for the 9th International Conference on Open Repositories (OR2014). The event will take place from Monday 9 June to Friday 13 June 2014 in Helsinki, Finland.

OR2014 programme addresses theoretical, practical, and strategic issues across the entire lifecycle of information. The scope extends from the creation and management of digital content, to enabling use, re-use, and interconnection of information, and ensuring long-term preservation and archiving.

The organizers anticipate more than 400 participants from all over the world. The participants will include directors of digital initiatives, technical developers and repository managers. Researchers in digital libraries and similar fields will be present, too.

Sponsorship Opportunities

OR2014 is an excellent place to be for companies and organisations that operate in the fields associated with open repositories, including digital asset management, digital storage, research information systems, scholarly publications, open access and open data.

OR2014 is a great occasion to showcase products and services, and to communicate brand to leaders and decision makers in the open repository community. Your company or organisation can demonstrate active involvement in the global effort toward interoperable open repositories that provide broad access to quality information and resources.

Through sponsorship you will reach an international audience representing for instance universities, libraries, public administration and businesses. You will be able to build networks with others involved in this field that has a huge impact on science, education, and culture of the digital age.
