As an initial thought I would suggest to enter a bidding process before the event where companies can submit their sites for consideration. Alternatively you could have a panel suggest sites and then invite the owners to participate. Having the company involved in the process from before hand (but probably not at all during the design…) might help set more relevant guidelines and goals.

The chosen site can then be re-designed / Modified and the result given to the respective company, for them to use as they will. The company would then either pay a set fee price or make a donation towards the conference as a sponsorship. The participants get the company exposure for their companies and the conference attendees get to see the process form both sides and gain an insight into what it takes for a re-design.

Payfine did help sponsor one of the participants flights down, so this did occur in some way but it could add another interesting dynamic to the conference yet one more way for it to help distinguish itself from the rest.

Just a thought… Use it, don’t use it…

would be interesting to see how a bidding process could work – the process provided a tailored solution for payfine, and would only really have been appropriate for them. Or did you mean for the bidding process to happen before the event – so companies would bid to have their site redesigned by the panel?
