Successful applicants receive complimentary tickets, travel and accommodation to the meeting and the opportunity to present their research. The application deadline is end of this week! https://www.ripe.net/raci ---------------------- Examples of Relevant Topics ---------------------- - Network measurements and analyses - IPv6 deployment - BGP routing - Network security - Internet governance - Peering and interconnectivity - Internet of Things Academics from Eastern and South East Europe also have time to apply for ENOG 13 in St Petersburg (apply by 19 March 2017) and SEE 6 in Budva (apply by 9 April 2017). But I strongly recommend you to apply before 5 March, so you can be considered both for RIPE 74 and for these two meetings. To answer some frequently asked questions: - you only need to fill out the form once, and tick the box for every meeting you want to apply for - you can make multiple applications for different presentations/projects - applying for more than one meeting does not affect your chances of being selected at a particular meeting - yes, you can be selected both for RIPE and SEE or RIPE and ENOG meeting (and we've had this happen in the past!) ------------- Stay involved ------------- - Twitter: @RACI_RIPE - LinkedIn group: https://www.ripe.net/raci/linkedin Please let me know if you have any questions about RACI or about applying.
