FPL Website Sponsorship Opportunity Exclusively Available To FPL Member Firms

Imported from previous forum

The opportunity to bid for a sponsorship spot on the FIX Protocol Limited (FPL) website is now exclusively available to FPL member firms. There are just three spots available per quarter and in securing a space the winning FPL Member firms will benefit from the opportunity to have their hyperlinked logo displayed on a website that is visited by thousands of electronic trading professionals every day.

FPL is offering member firms the opportunity to submit a bid for each of the remaining two quarters of 2011. The winning site sponsor logos will appear to all website visitors, prominently placed in a highly visible location in the left hand menu under the “About the Organisation” section. To view one of the many pages on which these logos will be displayed please visit www.fixprotocol.org. Pages displaying the sponsored logos will include the FPL home page, events page, technical specifications page, discussion forums, FIX products and vendors page plus many more.

To win one of the limited slots available simply email the FPL Program Office at FPL@FIXProtocol.org by Thursday, July 14th, advising if you would like to submit a bid for quarter 3 and/or quarter 4 and the amount you would like to bid. Firms are free to bid for a sponsorship spot for either or both of the remaining two quarters. The 3 highest bids received for each quarter will win, with the highest bid taking the top spot with maximum exposure. There are no minimum or maximum bid prices; it’s your opportunity, so you suggest the price and all bids will remain confidential.

The winners for each quarter will have their logos displayed for the following time periods:
Quarter 3: Monday, July 18th 2011 – Friday, October 7th 2011
Quarter 4: Monday, October 10th 2011 – Friday, January 6th 2012

• Company Logo (Pixel size: 139 wide and 30 height (This is a strict max size requirement)) – Please note that we require the logo to be static and not include animation.
• URL that you would like the logo to link to
