I hope that this is the right place for this.
I have been asked to reach out the SCALE to see if you all are in need of
help with live streaming, event networking, Wifi or internet access. I have
just finished up doing the South East Linux Fest (SELF) Wifi and was
contacted by Ubiquiti (a hardware maker) and another company Altispeed
<http://www.altispeed.com/> about sponsoring the networking needs for
SCALE.
As an example of the event networking I have done, here is the post I did
about the SELF2016 network:

Here is some information about what we've done in the past.

This last year we deployed about 110 access points around the show.
The Conference center provides the Internet connection, and we have paid them to allow us to run everything else.
There is an opening for them to sponsor some of this. We can definantly use help setting up and running things. At the moment, we don't know who will be replacing Stu as the person setting up and running the network for the show. Michael Proctor-Smith is going to be running the AV group, so he will be continuing to spearhead the streaming effort.
The current plan is to select the new Tech Chair in a month or so.
