Interested in sponsoring WUPID?
This is a repost of a post from http://wupidmania.wordpress.com/. I have reposted it for two reasons (1) Hopefully someone will see it and decide to sponsor this excellent tournament. (2) It contains 5 good arguments any debating society or competition could use to structure their thoughts and presentation before going to ask a potential sponsor for money. The arguments come from websites like sponsorship.com and others and in this era of constrained finances I strongly urge people to seek guidance and advice from sites like that when looking for sponsors. When money is tight nothing will have you shown the door faster than a presentation that looks like something that was thrown together in the back of the taxi on the way. You don't have to pay for advice there is lots online but remember debating is not as high profile as other activities on your campus so you need to be more professional than them when you compete for the same pot of money.
Hello All,
You are already impacted by our efforts just from reading this post
People are captivated by the debate motions/topics and the respective arguments from our group of talented university debaters discussing matters related to social justice, foreign affairs policy, religious freedom, human rights and many more issues under the umbrella of peace.
We intend to showcase the event at other university debating events like the Auckland Austral-Asian Inter-varsity Debating Championship (July), Amsterdam European Universities Debating Championship (August) and the Asian British Parliamentary Debating Championship (December) which always draw a world-wide debate crowd. We work with non-government organizations to promote peace, government agencies to assist and drive potential policies or activities that fosters more academic debating.
This December prior to WUPID, we will debut our new debate conference which will be co-organized with the Faculty of Modern Languages and Communications of Universiti Putra Malaysia – the host university. The subject of the conference will help continue WUPID’s strong presence among the world debating community and the academic fraternity. Below are the top five reasons why our previous sponsors and us believe you should sponsor WUPID:
(1) Consumer Trust – In case you missed it, findings from the Nielsen Global Online Consumer Survey released earlier this month show that 64 percent of consumers “completely” or “somewhat” trust sponsorship as a form of advertising. That is a giant leap from the 49 percent who said the same in the first Global Online Consumer Survey two years ago. It also puts sponsorship ahead of all other forms of company-generated advertising except for brand Web sites, which 70 percent of respondents found trustworthy. Specific forms of traditional, digital and mobile advertising are all ranked below sponsorship.
(2) Sponsorship for Association – Create new partnerships and enhance your corporate image by associating yourself with prestigious institutions of higher education around the world and an event that drives debate and discussion as a preferred instrument for conflict resolution.
(3) Cause Marketing and Social Purpose – Despite the recession, consumers are still spending with companies and brands which have a social purpose. New findings released from the 3rd annual Edelman good-purpose Consumer Study, a survey of 6,000 people in 10 countries, revealed that during this recession, 57 percent globally say a company or brand has earned their business because it has been doing its part to support good causes (with Asian countries coming in highest). Two out of three (67 percent) globally also say they would switch brands if another brand of similar quality supported a good cause.
(4) Corporate Social Responsibility – It all used to be about managing a few sensitive areas that had the potential to generate positive or negative headlines. But, as companies recognize the direct link between social justice and increased shareholder value, they are abandoning this mandated model and instead embedding sustainability and ethical values into customer loyalty-building, cost reduction, new product creation, sourcing and HR.
(5) Flexible Sponsorship Relationship – Brand’s association with the well-liked event does have some positive impact on consumer perception, but the visibility alone doesn’t do enough to really change how consumers feel, in some ways it could be reinforcing the negative opinions – consumer may well be aware of the brand but has a poor perception of the company’s products/services and believes that they are inferior to its competitors. If the stated objective is to change consumer perceptions, the brand should have room to do so much more. WUPID provides the room that would give the potential sponsor a forum to tout its benefits or refine its focus on opportunities for consumers to interact with the brand to prove it is of good quality.
For any company who would like to reach university students, improve consumer perception and directly impact future international policies, please email ‘more info’ to wupid@hngsc.com or check out our sponsorship page here.
We are willing to work with a wide range of companies on a monetary level as well as in-kinds. As an event that revolves around a social cause, we follow strict legal and accounting guidelines but please feel free to contact us for more information or just to say hi.

Please take the Debatewise survey
Hi all,
If you haven't already, please take five minutes to complete our questionnaire. We've tried to make it as simple as possible but the more detail you can give us the better. We only expect a few hundred responses you do stand a pretty good chance of winning one of our two lovely iPod Touches.
The fringe benefit of the survey is we'll be able to find the right kind of sponsors for different things that we do, such as the Global Youth Panel. As a non-profit we depend upon the generosity of organisations like the Open Society Youth Initiative to keep going. Please help us find more like them by filling out our questionnaire. http://debatewise.info/mlist/lt.php?id=ZkQFUQkBAFEYDAVJBwwGVw%3D%3D
Thank you,
David Crane

Travel subsidies for FLTRP in China
Last week for travel subsidies to China!
We will make our first-round assessments for travel subsidies for adjudicators interested in attending the FLTRP Cup on March 10. If you have not submitted your application by this date you will likely miss out on available travel subsidy funds. Please visit http://www.chinadebate.org/Adjudicator.asp to apply.
The Foreign Languages Teaching and Research Press, organizer of the most prestigious English language debating tournament in China, invites you participate as a guest adjudicator at the 14th FLTRP Cup National English Debating Championship. The FLTRP Cup will be held May 15-25, 2010 at the FLTRP’s Convention Center in Beijing.
The FLTRP Cup is the oldest, largest and most celebrated intercollegiate debating competition in China. Since it’s inception, the FLTRP Cup has been a major sponsor of intercollegiate debating in China and is on the forefront of promoting open discourse and intellectual exchange among the best and brightest of Chinese college students.
This year, the FLTRP Cup makes an important transition as it adopts for the first time the British Parliamentary format, the style of debating employed by the World Universities Debating Championships. This transition is critical to connect Chinese universities to the world of international debating and will require the cooperation of volunteers willing to contribute their experience as adjudicators to the effort.
Though the competition is open only to Chinese university students, there is a great need for skilled adjudicators to ensure that the standards of the BP style are upheld. To encourage you to participate in this effort, the FLTRP is sponsoring an incentive package for all qualified adjudicators with significant BP experience who agree to adjudicate at the 14th FLTRP Cup. All qualified adjudicators will receive:
• Transfers from Beijing airport to the FLTRP Convention Center (May 15)
• Hotel at the FLTRP Convention Center (May 15-22)
• All meals while at the Convention Center (May 15-22)
• Transfer to downtown Beijing (May 22)
• Hotel in downtown Beijing (May 23-25)
• Tours of major sites like the Great Wall & Forbidden City (May 23-24)
• Some meals while in downtown Beijing (May 23-24)
• Transfers to airport on May 25
Additionally, we will offer partial travel subsidies to select qualified adjudicators.
To apply to be an adjudicator, please visit: http://www.chinadebate.org/Adjudicator.asp
Questions may be directed to steve.johnson.alaska@gmail.com

Registration results Amsterdam Euros
Dear debaters of Europe!
We received 241 registrations after registration opened today, most of them within a minute. Unfortunately, this means that we do not have places for all institutions that registered. You can find a list of the order of registration below, which still needs to be checked for some eligibility issues, however, and does not give full information on who gets team spots for Euros.
We distribute the 200 available places using the following two criteria
The first institution from every country that registers will always get at least one team place.
We add teams in the order they registered until we reach our teamcap of 200.
Please note that criterion 1 implies that we can only post the final list of invited institutions after registration closes: some countries do not have any institution representing them yet and they may still register before March 8.
We expect that the places up to 175 can be certain that they are in. We cannot be certain about the next spots, as that depends on whether we receive any registrations from countries currently without representatives at Euros.
Note that Cardiff, Belgrade, Stockholm, St. Gallen, Kyiv and Carnegie Mellon are certain to have at least one spot as they are the first registrations from their respective countries. In the case of Qatar this is dependent, however, on whether they will be considered eligible to participate at Euros.
