Invitation to Sponsors

As INET'98 Sponsorship Chair, I would like to invite your organization to be a sponsor of INET'98, the annual conference of the Internet Society.

The Internet is a relatively new and very powerful technology, which from my viewpoint has contributed greatly to the preservation and furtherance of open societies. I have invested heavily in providing Internet technology for countries in eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union on the premise that the free flow of information creates an informed citizenry, and that this will maximize the probability that the society will remain open and free. So far, my hopes have been met and exceeded. The Internet is a tool that can add immeasureably to the general development of civil society, in addition to making significant contributions to education, health, business, commerce, and government. All of us have an stake in the health of its future.

From its inception, the Internet Society has been the prime mover behind the beneficial open evolution of the Internet around the world. Its annual INET conferences are attended by Internet leaders from almost every country. Previous INET conferences have attracted between 1,500 - 3,300 attendees from more than 150 countries. Due to the location of INET'98 in Geneva and rapidly growing world interest in internetworking from all sectors including international organizations such as the International Telecommunications Union, INET'98 is expected to attract a larger audience - possibly 4,000 attendees.

The Internet Society deserves your support. It is in everyone's interest to have this technology flourish without interference and to have its markets and services grow without restrictions. As a sponsor of INET '98 your contribution will provide you with access and exposure to this select group of networking leaders, secure year-long recognition, and will allow you meet and discuss your products, services, and objectives with them in the INET'98 Exhibition Hall during 22-24 July 1998.

To become an INET'98 sponsor, you may contact the Internet Society International Secretariat via telephone, + 1 703 648 9888, or via e-mail at <inet98sponsor@isoc.org>. I encourage you to join me in supporting this worthwhile effort, and I look forward to welcoming your organization as an INET'98 sponsor.

Sincerely yours,

George Soros
