#PerfMatters Conference
Redwood City, CA
March 27-28, 2018

Diversity Program

All attendees, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at #PerfMatters Conference are required to agree with the conference code of conduct. Organizers will enforce this code throughout the event.

We realize that buying a ticket to a conference for many isn't a trivial expense, but it can be a turning point in someone's career.

We're committed to bringing in as many individuals who couldn't attend otherwise as possible. We want you to feel like you belong and build a lasting, inclusive, safe community. As organizers, we see it as our responsibility to help diversify the face of the web performance industry. We strongly encourage members of underrepresented groups to apply.

Please note that the scholarships cover conference registration only, so you will have to arrange travel and any accommodation, if necessary. We do have a #HOUSING channel in Slack where you can try to find someone to share a hotel room with, or even ask someone to share their corporate sponsored hotel room at hopefully reduced to no cost.

Eligibility

Applicants for a free or reduced ticket diversity ticket have to fulfill at least one of the below requirements:
