The Clojure/conj opportunity grant program provides support to members of underrepresented groups who may not otherwise have the opportunity to attend Clojure/conj for financial reasons.
Applicants should be a member of an underrepresented group in tech and be unable to attend without some financial assistance. Grant recipients will receive a free registration ticket and may optionally request support for travel and hotel. To stretch our grant funds as far as possible, we can only consider travel for U.S.-based applicants at this time.
Questions about the grant program can be sent to events@cognitect.com.
Applications
To submit an application, complete the application form. Applicants will be notified on a rolling basis until March 31st.
Sponsorship or support
Individuals in the Clojure community that are interested in sponsoring the opportunity grant program can do so via the registration page – see the Opportunity Grant Donation “ticket”. Note that you do not need to “assign” the pseudo-ticket that is created. Thanks to all who have already done so!
Companies wishing to support the opportunity grants and receive recognition should contact events@cognitect.com.
