On October 17-18, 2018, we’re hosting our favorite event of the year in a new home at the Bill Graham Center in San Francisco. SIGNAL is an opportunity for our community to come together and reimagine how the world communicates. Our mission is to fuel the future of communications. In order to do that, we must take action to ensure a future that is accessible and inclusive to everyone.

That’s why the SIGNAL scholarship program is back. We’ve increased the number of tickets for the program and will be able to offer a limited amount of travel assistance to help more folks from underrepresented backgrounds in tech join us at the event. All you need to do is apply!

Who is eligible for a scholarship?

Anyone from an underrepresented group in tech is encouraged to apply. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Women (self-identified)
  • People of color
  • LGBTQIA
  • People with disabilities
  • Veterans

If you or someone you know could benefit from this, please fill out the form to submit a short paragraph on why you want to attend SIGNAL and if you require travel assistance.

Submissions will be accepted until Monday, September 3rd, 2018 11:59 EST.

Please note that all scholarships cover the cost of the conference ticket for October 17-18 and recipients will be responsible for arranging and paying for all of their own expenses if possible. A limited number of scholarships may include some travel and/or lodging assistance on an as-needed basis.

We look forward to seeing you at SIGNAL!
