So far we’ve been able to fund 23 people, including 9 speakers, which is awesome!

Congratulations to all our accepted speakers!

While we’re in the midst of preparations for Austin, it’s also time to think about 2016! Where will we be next year? We need your help in making that decision!

Deciding how to allocate our financial aid budget is something we take very seriously.
