OpenFOAM Event Sponsorship

The OpenFOAM Open Day brings together the contributors to OpenFOAM and supporting organisations which fund OpenFOAM, for a free meeting in London on 19th September 2018.  The meeting is streamed live worldwide to OpenFOAM users and managers, from industry and academia, across all sectors of engineering and science. It will specifically address “sustainable development of OpenFOAM” and will include talks from founders of OpenFOAM, Henry Weller and Chris Greenshields.  Talks will be recorded and be freely available via this website, following the meeting.

We expect 500 delegates for the live stream, followed by 10,000 views per year of the recorded talks (cf. Installing OpenFOAM 4.0 video).  We reach a far bigger audience than a typical conference of 100, for a fraction of the overall cost and without the significant carbon footprint associated with  delegates’ travel.  Given OpenFOAM’s undoubted popularity (see numbers of posts on CFD online), we anticipate the largest audience of any meeting in CFD.

We offer the following sponsorship packages to enable organisations in CFD to connect with this audience of OpenFOAM users and managers.
