		4.	We collaborate with the greatest organizations. Our previous sponsors understand and appreciate the value that Wikimania brings, and you will, too, when you partner with us.
5.	Supporting this community-driven volunteer project and event garners the good will of the Open Knowledge and Free Culture movements. To our attendees, your contribution is a strong signal of appreciation for their work.
		6.	Access to Wikimania brings great exposure and an outstanding brand association. But it also brings the world's top open culture thought leaders and the best open source developers right to you. Who would you like to meet?
