General considerations

Of course financial resources are precious and useful to implement Wikimania Esino Lario, but this is not the only reason we invite companies to join us. We trust Wikimania Esino Lario is an opportunity to show the world how active, engaged and innovative are the companies of our territory. Wikimania Esino Lario is a challenge and companies are probably the first to understand what dealing with challenges means. We would like to create a welcoming system to get companies of different sizes being involved in our event and part of team.
