If you use Facebook, Twitter or any other social channel to broadcast your activities during the event we would also like you to participate in a small experiment that’ll give you even more exposure – so please let us know if you’re interested.
We want your opinion
In 2011, Sailing Aarhus is collaborating with ACTIVE institute. The topic is the dissemination of sailing and how to find new ways of making sailing viewable, sharable and understandable.
Normally, an organizer tries to find a few sponsors to be able to pay for the event, including dissemination of the event (live tracking, video streaming etc.). We would like to explore new ways of expanding the model, and would be very pleased if you would answer the following questions.
