QoMEX 2020 Travel Grants
ACM SIGMM Travel Supports for QoMEX 2020
Any student member of SIGMM is eligible to apply, however, the students who are the first author of an accepted paper (in any track/workshop) are particularly encouraged to apply. The value of the grant depends on the travel distance as listed below:
- €1000 for long-haul (Americas and Asia/Pacific)
- €500 for short-haul (Europe)
Note that the grants can cover any travel expenses (airfare/shuttle, hotel, meals) but cannot be used to cover the registration fee. For more details on the ACM’s reimbursement process, see this.
Applicants must be a member of SIGMM (if not already, become a member here) and enrolled in a university at the time of the submission.
