Compute Local · Durham, NC
Sponsor Compute Local
Put your name on the power strip.
Why
The room is full of people who buy hardware, run it hard, and tell each other what worked. If you make boards, firmware, pools, inference tooling, or the things that keep any of that cool and powered, they are your users. They are also unusually hard to reach with ads.
Sponsorship keeps tickets cheap and pays for the venue, the power, the recordings, and the coffee.
Tiers
| Tier | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|

Hardware sponsorship is welcome. Send a few Bitaxes or dev boards and they go out as door prizes with your name on the mic; we will price it against the tiers above.
What we do not sell
Talks. Speakers are picked on merit. If your team is doing real work in this space, we want to hear about it: apply to speak. The minute on the mic is a hello, not a talk.
Attendee lists. We never share who came.
Anything not on this page. Every sponsor at a tier gets the same thing, which is how it stays fair and how we stay volunteers.
