Dear colleagues
Registrations for UKNOF42, taking place at etc Venues 155 Bishopsgate in London
on 15 January 2019, are now open at:
https://uknof.uk/register42
You will note from the above link that we have introduced charging for
attending UKNOF42.
So far, UKNOF meetings have been fully funded by sponsorship. However this
funding has become less predictable, leading to a significant dip in reserves.
With rising costs, an increasingly challenging environment for sponsorship, and
after consultation with the community at the UKNOF Annual Meeting in September,
we have decided to introduce meeting attendance fees.
For UKNOF42, we are offering various registration options allowing attendees to
pay what they want. This ranges from the limited but heavily discounted (by
75%) £60 inc VAT option up to the full cost of an attendee - £240 inc VAT -
option.
We are aware from our past surveys that there are students who attend our
meetings and some non-students are unfunded (ie, attend on personal time rather
than as representatives of an employer). We also wish to encourage fresh blood
participation. As such, we are making a fee-free registration available.
In addition to this, there is a Donations option (it does not register you to
attend the meeting) allowing you to put something toward the costs of the
meeting (such as paying toward a fee-free space for a student).
