Like every year, I'd like to point towards the programs for those that can't afford to pay for a ticket for Meeting C++ 2024.

And let me start with thanking those that enable these programs through their ticket buying: the attendees and sponsors of Meeting C++ 2024! With the schedule published, I'd like to highlight the student and support tickets for Meeting C++ 2024. For a few years now Meeting C++ has hosted programs to give students, underrepresented folks and those who can't afford a ticket access to the conference.

This year for the first time you can choose to register either for onsite or online for these programs. A limited amount of tickets for Berlin will be available, depending on the ticket sale in October. So incase you registered for onsite but are not chosen for a ticket, then you'll have a chance to an online ticket.

The difference between the two programs

The student program is meant for those that are currently - in one way or another - enrolled as a student. Usually this is checked with a student ID at the conference when registering, in this year its more based on trust. The support ticket exists as an umbrella for all the groups that are not able to simply buy a ticket, but are not students. Examples can be that you are part of an underrepresented group, going to school or are unemployed.

For each of these groups currently 25 slots for the online conference are reserved. You can apply until the end of October. You can support these programs through buying a ticket or sponsoring this years conference.
