2026 Accountability

Putting together a conference like this is quite the journey, and while it's a thrilling one, it's not without its costs. Our success relies heavily on a team of dedicated volunteers who've generously offered their time and expertise. It's a level of commitment that money can't buy, and we're overflowing with gratitude for their contributions.

Though we love a good DIY approach, some professional tools and infrastructure are essential to ensure a smooth and engaging experience for everyone involved. Below, you'll find a transparent overview of the associated costs.
