We are a young, underfunded educational organization that unfortunately does not have the money to award scholarships for the total amount of the student fee. However, we hope that our scholarship system is the fairest possible way for us to help qualified students to attend this year's conference regardless of the financial ability.

Thank you very much for your understanding and your cooperation.

We look forward to seeing you in Prague.
