What Is It? MicroSponsorships are a way for companies without big sponsorship budgets to get involved in the Hive Awards
How Does It Work? It sort of works like Kiva crossed with a wedding registry. We will list several things we’d like to have at our SXSW event and the price tag. You will be able to put money against each thing, in $500 chunks.
So I Have To Invest $500? That’s the minimum. But feel free to increase your level of involvement if you wish.
What Sort of Acknowledgement Will I Get? You will get your name or logo on the thing it is you are sponsoring. Plus we’ll have a MicroSponsor sign up at the show and we will give you PR and Social Media love.
Why Are You Doing This?The theme of the show is Unsung Heroes of the Internet. And we realized that not all Unsung Heroes have big sponsorship budgets. Lots of them asked about sponsorships, but, being scrappy start-ups, balked at the four-and-five figure amounts. So we put our heads together and came up with a way to let them get involved.
