Advertising + Sponsorship
There are a number of opportunities for commercial and non-commercial ventures to support QED, including businesses, podcasters, bloggers and more.
Sponsorship
Several sponsorship packages are available. Past sponsors have included Gloo Communications, the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason & Science, New Scientist and the British Humanist Association.

Attendee Packs
Everyone at QED receives an Attendee Pack on Saturday morning. You can include your own promotional item in the pack for a reasonable fee, whether that is simply a flyer or something more adventurous!
Previous packs have included pens, badges, magnets, mints, beer mats and a stick of rock; we are prepared to consider anything, as long as it fits!
Event Guide
The Event Guide is also distributed to everyone as part of the Attendee Pack. As it contains the event timetable, it gets a lot of eyeball time during the event.
Half and full page advertisements in the guide are available, contact Andy Wilson for more information.
Exhibition Stands
If you have something to promote we provide a limited amount of space for you to do so free of charge. Skeptical groups, podcasters and activism co-ordinators can set up in an official space to sell a bit of merchandise or simply attract attention.
There is no charge but, for avoidance of doubt, this free offer does not apply to purely commercial vendors. So you can sell your podcast t-shirts but not set up a skeptical shop, for which charges would still apply.
For a rate card or any other sponsorship enquiry, please contact Andy Wilson.
