Sponsors - Organizations that are sponsoring this year's events will pre-determine which delegate(s) is/are eligible for the sponsor discount (or coupon) code(s) attributed to their level of sponsorship before registering. That code will be indicated prior to checkout, so that the correct discount will be added to the registration fee.
