We particularly encourage participation of:

  * student teams (this includes PhD students)
  * non-​developer teams / using a tool someone else developed
  * several teams using the same tool


        TRAVEL GRANTS

The competition has funds for a limited number of travel grants. A grant 
covers the incurred travel and accommodation costs up to a certain 
limit. The currently-​expected limit is EUR 400 for those coming from 
Europe and EUR 700 for those coming from outside Europe.

We are particularly keen to increase diversity (in all senses) at the 
competition, and may take this into account if needing to prioritise 
travel grants; regardless, we strongly encourage you to apply if you 
have a need.

To apply for a travel grant, send an email to alex.summers at ubc.ca and 
paula.herber at uni-muenster.de by March 3rd, 2024 (or at the latest March 
15th). The application should include:

  * your name
  * your affiliation
  * the verification system(s) you plan to use at the competition
  * the planned composition of your team (and whether you are developers
    of the tools you'll be using)
  * a short letter of motivation explaining your involvement with formal
    verification so far and/or interest in attending the competition
  * if you are a student, please state the academic degree you are
    seeking and have your supervisor send a brief letter of support to
    alex.summers at ubc.ca and paula.herber at uni-muenster.de.
