Being this "Community" event, not sure if the traditional CiviCamp / CiviCon Sponsorship model will be a good fit. The sponsorships are targeted to the Community Summit (first 2 days + the community day) But here a first approach:
Gold Sponsor - 2000€ / 1.500€ (partner price)
- Paid Fee for 1 employee (includes accommodation & food for 7 days)
- Short (2 min) announcement during opening remarks
- Mention in all event marketing that are published by CiviCRM or on CiviCRM.org
- Logo (large size) on website
- Ongoing social media and newsletter promotion
- A special acknowledgement and listing in our "Thanks to Our Sponsors" mailing to ~9,500+ recipients
- Acknowledgments during day of event and in a blog post on CiviCRM.org blog
- Name badge recognition with sponsor ribbon
Silver Sponsor - 1000€ / 750€ (partner price)
- Logo (medium size) on website
- Ongoing social media and newsletter promotion
- A special acknowledgement and listing in our "Thanks to Our Sponsors" mailing to ~9,500+ recipients
- Acknowledgments during day of event and in a blog post on CiviCRM.org blog
- Name badge recognition with sponsor ribbon
Lunch Sponsor (limited to 1) - 1000€ / 750€ (partner price)
- Logo (medium size) on website
- Thank you applause, before the lunch
Drinks Sponsor (limited to 1) - 1200€ / 900€ (partner price)
- Logo (medium size) on website
- Thank you applause, before the drinks
Alternate sponsorship plan
Considerations:
- Not every sponsor may make it to the event, so bundling event reg may not be worthwhile
- Recognition at the event is likely low value, whereas ongoing community recognition is perhaps more valuable
- It would be good to broaden sponsorships of sprints. The community has a vested interest in funding sprints, so let's take it to them.
Summit sponsors
Benefits are same for all sponsors, though exposure varies based on the sponsor level. Benefits:

Levels
- Global sponsor 1500€ (1)
- Gold sponsors 1000€ (2)
- Silver sponsors 750€ (3)
- Bronze sponsors 500€ (4)
Sprint sponsorships
The idea here is to target non-member/non-partner organizations and to garner support for the work that's being done at the sprint. Because people are working at the sprint, and because they need food to power their brains, spin it as "feed the sprint" sponsorship:
- Midnight power snack 50€ - for one day (5 available)
- Breakfast 200€ - for one day (5 available)
- Lunch 200€ - for one day (5 available)
- Dinner 300€ - for one day (5 available)
Sprint benefits
- Recognition before each meal
- Newsletter/community recognition
- Daily social recognition
- Cool badge
