Do you offer scholarships or grants for the event?

Where can I register to the event?

You can register and purchase a ticket to the event on the tickets page.

Can I pay by invoice or wire transfer?

Unfortunately the event only offers the possibility of paying by credit card as we use Stripe to handle the payments and it is directly linked to our ticketing system (Tito). Handling manual offers, invoicing, payment confirmation and generating tickets takes up large amounts of time and we do not have the resources to do this due to the scale of the event.

I need a proper invoice, what do I do?

Our ticketing system issues proper invoices and you can edit all the detail, even after you have bought the ticket through a link in the confirmation email.

Can I reassign a ticket?

Yes! You received emails for your original purchase that contain links that allow you to assign tickets to any person of your choosing.

Can I register to a specific workshop or track?

We do not handle registrations for each specific workshop/track session. We want to let the participants the possibility to choose their workshops/tracks freely and let the possibility to change mind on the spot. In that sense, we’re selling a ticket for the overall day, not specific sessions.

After registration, you will able to answer a survey, to indicate which workshops/tracks you are interested in. This is NOT a reservation, as workshops and tracks will be served on a first come basis on the day, but will help us to allocate room capacity accordingly to participant interest.

Can I buy a ticket for Monday only (or Tuesday only)?

We do not offer the option to register for only Monday or Tuesday.

I want to partner or sponsor, how?

We’d be happy to have you! You can find more information about sponsoring the conference on our partnership page.
