Call For Sponsors

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

The IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC) was established in 1984 and is held annually in venues around the world. The mission of the conference is to support the design, theory, application, and evaluation of computing technologies and languages for programming, modeling, and communicating, which are easier to learn, use, and understand by people. VL/HCC is actually the premier international forum for research on these topics.
The beautiful, full of history and cosmopolitan city of Lisbon will host VL/HCC in October 2018. Following the long tradition of this event, it will count with around 100 worldwide experts in human-centered computing, visual programming languages and other strongly connected research areas. Besides, the strong presence of academics represented by top most researchers and excellent students with internationalization in mind, will be complemented by professionals from hardware and software industry participation, which means you!
This is a great chance for your company to talk to customers and future employees, make your products visible, expand your network, learn from competitors and partners, and initiate collaborations.
There are a number of ways you can support the event and help make this conference a success. We have three different predefined sponsor packages, but there are also a number of key locations, student grants, awards, events, and items to sponsor and put your logo on. At the conference site, there will be booths and exhibitions where you can present your company and products. At VL/HCC'18 in Lisbon, you can make yourself known to the wider community!
