Sponsor & Exhibit

Grab Your Gnomies and Join us at WASWUG!


This event is now over, but here's all the information you need to gnome and more!

The garden is abuzz, and the WSIPC gnomes are combing their beards and cleaning the strawberry house to get ready for WASWUG 2023!

WASWUG is your gnomebase for networking, sharing product information, developing relationships with WSIPC Cooperative members, and having fun like gnomeone is watching!

Gnome way! We're excited to confirm that WASWUG 2023 will be hybrid!

All in-person gnomies will join us at the Hyatt Regency (Bellevue, WA) and virtual attendees will view live-stream content on the Attendee Hub platform.

Note: All vendor partners will receive a virtual Exhibit Booth space on the Attendee Hub platform and have access to the content during and after the conference.

WASWUG has many creative ways for you and your team to come play in the garden. Check out the list of Sponsorships and Exhibitor Booth opportunities below.

If you have questions or want to gnome more, contact Jinxie Fizzlebang(Jamie Cowan), Chief Partner Gnome at jcowan@wsipc.org.

Don't stay gnome alone... There’s gnome place like WASWUG!

"The time and effort the WSIPC team spent on creating the theme made this event a memorable experience which had a direct impact on attendees and exhibitors. These efforts really allowed a balance between open conversation and fun. The high attendance and engagement by attendees is a clear result of WSIPC's efforts to promote this event. Attending WASWUG was truly valuable for everyone! We're excited to be an exhibitor in the future!"

- Long Building Technologies

"The traction I received at this event was the strongest I've ever achieved at any conference. I booked 17 demos over the course of 2 days; the software and platform used was, by far, the best I've seen for virtual conferences. I had my doubts about virtual conferences -- not anymore! Thank you so much for your hard work everyone. The fun vibe, efficiency, networking, and most importantly -- our ROI -- were absolutely superb!"
