Scholarship and Financial Aid Program

NumFOCUS and the JupyterCon team believe that diversity is the strength of our community and essential for success. To help foster this inclusive environment, we are offering scholarship and financial aid to create an event that brings together many different perspectives.

We will be offering two types of financial aid grants:

  • Free ticket: The ticket includes access to all scheduled events during the conference (May 10-12)

  • Travel and accommodation costs: We will partially cover the travel costs (hotel/transportation)

Our program is open to all people with lack of budget. We can give limited numbers of subsidies, that’s why we will focus on the next criteria for evaluation:

  • Diversity: We are looking for the most diverse JupyterCon conference.

  • Contributors: Speakers/trainers of JupyterCon, active people from small Jupyter communities, and contributors to community projects.

  • Economic factors: Students, unemployed, or people with difficult economic situations.
