CALL FOR SPONSORS
The 9th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (ICDAR2007) will be held September, 23-26, 2007 in Curitiba, State of Parana, Brazil. The ICDAR2007, sponsored by the International Association for Pattern Recognition (IAPR) TC-10 and TC-11, is an international premier forum for identifying, encouraging and exchanging ideas on the state-of-the-art in document analysis, understanding, retrieval, and performance evaluation, including various forms of multimedia documents. The proceedings are published by the IEEE CS Press. The ICDAR conference takes place every two years and is attended by an average of 300 leading scientists and industrialists in the field. Many companies in the past have sponsored ICDAR conferences, such as: Microsoft, Hitachi, PARC, IBM, ABBYY, Siemens, Panasonic, Ricoh, nationally local companies, and local state or city councils.
Sponsorship is sought from companies and organizations. Interested parties can help either by i) making a general contribution for ICDAR2007 event or ii) by sponsoring a specific activity such as contributing towards the student endowment fund, keynote speakers, best paper award, best poster award, young researcher award, outstanding achievement award or the competitions, etc.
We are using several means to ensure that our sponsors receive recognition for their contribution, including their logo in the official ICDAR2007 web page, proceedings, and final program. Although ICDAR2007 will not sell demo booths, ample space (a table with electricity) will be provided for sponsor companies who want to demo their products and display pamphlets. The benefits start once a sponsorship is confirmed so there are definite advantages to signing on early.
