JuliaCon 2024 Funding Opportunities

Apply for funding to attend JuliaCon 2024!

The organizing committee is excited to provide two funding opportunities: Diversity Scholarships and Speaker Funds.

Diversity Scholarships are meant for community members who identify as underrepresented in science, computing, or the Julia community across one or more axes such as gender, race, sexuality, education and socioeconomic boundaries. Scholars do not need to have submitted a proposal to qualify for funding.

Speaker funding is meant for community members who have an accepted JuliaCon proposal and cannot afford to attend JuliaCon without financial assistance, regardless of identity. If selected, funding will be awarded after the speaker’s proposal has been accepted to the conference.

The same form, with identifying questions, will be used for both forms of funding and the organizers will determine which form of funding, if any, can be provided. Please be truthful in your answers so that we can help as many people attend the conference as possible!

We will begin reviewing applications on March 18th. After that, we will still accept applications until April 1st, 2024, but we will prioritize applications that are submitted before March 18th, so please submit your application as soon as possible.
