We've been thrilled with the support AlterConf has received thus far. Not only have we been able to see our ideas take shape, but you've all given us lots of other ideas!

Our mission with AlterConf Sessions has been to move the diversity discussion beyond 101, better support each other, and to inspire lasting change in the tech and gaming communities. As part of that mission, we'd like to be able to make videos of the talks (with the consent of our speakers) available for free online. This would help not only the community at large learn about different aspects of diversity, but because many of our speakers have never spoken at events before, they would be able to supply their video to conferences they submit talks to.

We need your help! The video and audio equipment is expensive - we've received an estimate for $2,000. In addition, we'll need to be able to safely transport the equipment across the country to each Session, pay for captioning and transcription services, and pay for video editing. Your sponsorship goes further to helping diversity, too, as we require our vendors to be owned by marginalized people.
