Dear friends, colleagues, and supporters of the game of Go,

My name is Cornel Burzo. I am a 6-dan Go player, Romanian national representative, and one of the most decorated competitive Go players in Europe.

I am reaching out today to seek sponsorship for my participation in the World Amateur Go Championship (WAGC) in Mungyeong, Korea held in september 6-13 this year.

📌 About me

Over the course of three decades and close to 400 tournaments, I have built one of the most consistent competitive records in European Go:

• 🇷🇴 9x Romanian National Champion

• 🌍 5th place at the World Amateur Go Championship (WAGC) 2008

• 🏆 Winner of the European Grand Prix 2023

• 🥉 3rd and 4th place at the European Individual Championship 2003 and 2010

• 🏅 Multiple-time European Teams Championship winner 2006 and 2009

• Numerous Open tournament victories across Europe (e.q. Dublin Confucius Cup 2025)

This year, I have once again qualified to represent Romania at the WAGC in Korea — the most prestigious amateur Go competition in the world, gathering national champions from over 70 countries.

📌 Why I need your support

Despite my results, competitive Go in Romania does not come with institutional funding.

The cost of the international flight to Korea (estimated at €800–€1,000) is one I need to cover independently.

I am therefore seeking sponsorship from individuals, businesses, and organizations who wish to support elite European mind sport and the global game of Go.

📌 What sponsors receive

• Public acknowledgment on social media and in any press coverage of the event

• Brand or name representation during the championship

• A post-tournament report and content from the event ( SGF and video game reviews )

• The knowledge that you helped a National Champion compete on the World Go stage

Every contribution makes a direct and meaningful difference. If you are a business looking for visibility within an international, intellectual, and passionate community, this is a rare opportunity to be part of something significant.

To discuss sponsorship or make a contribution, please contact me via private message or at cornelburzo@yahoo.com

For donations feel free to use my PayPal link https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/CornelBurzo

Thank you sincerely for your time and support.
