Founded in 2013, SeaGL (the Seattle GNU/Linux Conference) is a free—as in freedom and tea—grassroots technical summit dedicated to spreading awareness and knowledge about free / libre / open source software, hardware, and culture.
SeaGL strives to be welcoming, enjoyable, and informative for professional technologists, newcomers, enthusiasts, and all other users of free software, regardless of their background knowledge; providing a space to bridge these experiences and strengthen the free software movement through mentorship, collaboration, and community.

We will have a centralized hall available for in-person exhibitors at SeaGL {{ site.custom.year }}. Free/libre/open-source software/hardware projects and non-profit organizations may request gratis space. There are also several paid sponsorship levels and add-ons for other relevant entities. If your group would like to exhibit at SeaGL, please {%- if site.custom.url.prospectus %} review our Partnership/Sponsor Prospectus or{% endif %} send an email to {{ site.custom.a.email.sponsor }} for more information.
We can't do what we need to do without the support of the community. If you would like to offer financial support but don't need an exhibit table, please send an email to {{ site.custom.a.email.sponsor }}.
