Hi There,
Iam unsure what you mean about "anybody who may wish to advertise".
If you read correctly and patiently, we do not have media "sponsors", these are media partners: those who have been kind enough to cover our event on their platforms and we place their logo + back link in return with permission to do so.
As with sponsorships, this is a commercial event. It is also a community-centric event designed to foster growth and prosperity. Therefore sponsors are an essential part for obvious reasons.
So, let's set the records straight. Here is the event description as published on the website:
Domain Days Dubai is the domain industry event in the Middle East & North Africa (MENA) region for Domain Investors, Registrars, Registries, Monetization & Traffic, Web 3.0 Domains, Hosting & Cloud Providers, SaaS, and Industry Enthusiasts.
Now if you look at our sponsors, they are all from the industry and match perfectly to the context of the event.
Unless you have an issue with any particular sponsor (which I totally would accept), I can't think of any other reason why you would want to scrutinize the list.
Also since this is a public forum, let me know which "almost dead or not too serious businesses" you are referring to?
Feel free to drop me a message at anytime at
[email protected] and have to jump on a call with you and address any of your legit concerns.
