Dear OGF Organizational Member,

OGF22 will take place February 25-29, 2008 in Cambridge (Boston)
Massachusetts.  The program committee is putting the final touches on a
unique and interesting program. For example, we will have several special
workshops including a full day 'data management' program which is being
co-hosted by OGF and the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA);
half day workshops with the Financial Services and Pharma/life sciences
industries; sessions and case studies focused on OGF specification adoption
which has recently picked up significantly; keynote addresses by Charlie
Catlett and other Grid luminaries (to be announced); and a full day
enterprise program that will explore Grids in the IT data center. 

This will be our only OGF event in the USA in 2008, so please strongly
consider sponsoring if you are interested in reaching this audience. By
sponsoring OGF22 your organization will gain greater visibility and
recognition as a Grid thought leader in our global community and:
*Reach a highly qualified audience of Grid technical leaders, researchers,
users, executives, decision makers and purchasing influencers
*Build brand awareness and showcase products and services
*Interact with Life Science/Pharma and Financial Services grid builders who
share their case studies
*Explore data management issues in both research and industry, with help
from experts from SNIA and others
*Generate leads by reaching key decision makers in the buying cycle 
*Network and make connections at sessions and social events
*Gain exposure to OGF community and achieve good will by showing your
support for OGF 

Sponsorship opportunities include Display Tables, Welcome Reception, Chair
Appreciation Night, OGF Co-branded Promotional Item, Wireless, Lunches and
Breaks, and Badge Lanyard. The attached prospectus provides additional
information. 

As a reminder, Platinum and Gold members may have sponsorship credits
remaining that can be used to "pay" for all or a part of any sponsorship
opportunity listed in the prospectus. Please contact me if you have any
questions about your sponsorship credits and how to use them.

I look forward to your involvement in making OGF22 a great success! Please
consider today the sponsorship opportunities listed in the prospectus and
contact me if you wish to take advantage of this opportunity to bring
greater visibility and recognition to your organization.
