Does anyone know if there are travel grants or sponsorships available for people who cannot afford the US$700 (~C$1k) registration fee and/or travel expenses, out-of-pocket?
Asking for a friend cough…
(Yes, I’m aware of the $100 Virtual option, it’s not a good option for me.)

HI Adam
I’m interested in that as well. Nanog had good grants/sponsorships in the past
Thank you!

ARIN has a fellowship program that includes expenses to attend an ARIN/NANOG combined meeting. It’s also a great way to learn about ARIN and get involved in the wider networking community.
Info can be found here: https://www.arin.net/participate/meetings/fellowships/

Subject Re: NANOG92 travel grants or sponsorships?
I’ve been an ARIN Fellow once before, years ago, and I didn’t feel right drinking from that trough twice. And the application period is already closed for ARIN54/NANOG92.
However, I heartily recommend this program – in general – to anyone who hasn’t been involved in the ARIN policy end of things much!
