After an introduction to gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, a specific example will be discussed in more detail. We will focus on the minimal four-dimensional construction that interpolates between gaugino mediation and minimal gauge mediation. The soft masses are computed and the spectrum at the weak scale is evaluated. We find that even in the hybrid case (when the messenger scale is comparable to the mass of the additional gauge particles) both the right-handed as well as the left-handed sleptons are lighter than the lightest neutralino in the low-scale mediation regime. This implies signatures that may be probed at the LHC already in the near future.
