Company Profile for Web and Print

There are 3 primary steps, you as a sponsor, need to complete in order for us to publish your logo, speaker and session descriptions on the website. The first step in this process is for you to upload a company description and two different logos.

Step 1.

In order to publish your Company Profile on our website and add your logo to the printing material we need you to complete the form below. Please note that the company logo needs to uphold the requirements stated below.

Speaker Submission

Step 2.

We also need information about the person(s) you’ve chosen as speaker(s) for your company. If your sponsorship includes several speakers you need to complete the form for each speaker.

Fill out the form below:

Session Submission

Step 3.

After Step 2 we will also need a session description (Deadline for this is March 11). We add speakers to our internal schedule continuously, so to get the slot you want, please send us the info ASAP. To submit your session description, complete the form below.

Sessions are organized based on API insight (Design, Marketing, Business Models, Platforms, Strategy or Security), if it’s technical or business oriented, and the level of the talk (basic, medium or advanced).

Please Note: Nordic APIs strive to maintain a neutral approach to API best practices, so please try to keep your session as vendor neutral as possible.

Workshop Submission

If you’re hosting a workshop on the workshop day (May 4th), please submit the workshop details below.

Keep in mind:

• We will sell tickets to the workshop, so try to make make the workshop name and description as appealing as possible to as many people as possible (more general workshops that are not product specific usually sell the best).
• Do attendees need to bring anything to the workshop, or download a software program ahead of the session? Don’t forget to add these details to the description. 
• What will the attendees take away from the workshop? What will they learn that they may have use of in their daily work? Make sure to include this information in the description.

Expo Area

Expo Table

In our Platinum and Gold sponsor packages an expo table is included. Silver and Bronze sponsors can choose to add an Expo table at an additional cost. The size of the expo area varies between the different levels of sponsorship:

• Platinum Sponsors: 4×1.5 metres (approx. 13ft x 5ft).
• Gold Sponsors: 2.5×1.5 metres (approx. 8ft x 5ft).
• Silver and Bronze Sponsors: 1.5×1.5 metres (approx. 5ft x 5ft ).

We will mark out your expo area, and it’s very important that you keep within your assigned area. Closer to the event you will receive a map over the expo area, so you can choose your spot (subject to availability). If you do not select your spot, you will automatically receive the best spot available.

This is included in your sponsorship expo area:

• Platinum Sponsors: One high top table and one standard table approximately 150×50 centimeters.
• Gold Sponsors: One standard table approximately 150×50 centimeters.
• Silver and Bronze Sponsors: One high top table.

Set Up

Your Expo Table is available to set up from 5:30 PM on Monday 4th May, the day before the main event. For more information please contact the event coordinator.

Expo Area Times

Day 0 – During the half-day workshop there’s no expo.

Day 1 – The expo area opens at registration on Day 1 – see the event schedule for exact time and breaks. At the end of the day people will probably go directly from the main hall to the drinks reception area so you can close the expo area after the final break. No one will guard the expo area during the night, so if you have expensive equipment, we suggest you take it with you.

Day 2 – On Day 2 you can yourself choose when you’d like to staff your booth. We would recommend though, that you staff your booth 30 min or an hour before the event starts (see schedule for exact times). You can start packing up the expo table after the last coffee break.

Sponsor Competitions

As a sponsor you have the possibility to host a competition at your expo table. You can announce the winner at your booth any time you’d like, unless you’re a Platinum Sponsor (see more info below).

Competition announcement: Platinum Sponsors
For our Platinum Sponsors we’ve set aside a few minutes at the end of the second day, for announcing the winner(s) in the main hall with everyone present – if you would like to do so.  If you’d like to announce a winner in the main hall, please contact the Event Coordinator.

Goodie Bag & Other Promotional Items

We will provide a goodie bag to all attendees with useful and inspiring material. If you would like to contribute to our goodie bag, or have other material sent directly to the event venue please find address and other details for this below.

On shipments to the venue, the following information needs to be written on the package:
– Nordic APIs
– Your company name
– If the material is for the Goodie bag or your Expo Table

We’ll of course need everything before the event. Sometime the week before would be a suitable time for the package to arrive, and on Monday 13th May at the latest.
