Become a Sponsor
PostgreSQL Conference Germany is a perfect opportunity for companies to reach out to users and developers of PostgreSQL, or to just give back to the community.
Our sponsorship program covers a wide range of levels, from economically priced to big scale. Outside of these levels, we are always interested in discussing options if you have an idea for a specific way you would like to sponsor the conference.
PostgreSQL Europe does not call existing or potential sponsors by phone. Reachout to sponsors happens from pgconf.de or postgresql.eu email addresses. Any subject calling you and talking to you about sponsorships is most likely a scam.
Our current list of sponsors can be seen here.
