Travelling sustainably

We encourage you to take the train if possible. If you fly and would like to offset the CO2e footprint, we recommend Atmosfair or myclimate.org. For example, offsetting a London-Prague roundtrip flight in an A320 or 737-800 is estimated at less than €15 / £15.

Book your place and join us in Prague!

Refund policy

We are planning the event with diligence, and are fully confident that the conference can take place as planned. Nonetheless, the past few years taught us to prepare for surprises, so here’s our refund policy: If the event cannot take place at all, you will receive a full refund on your ticket purchase. If the event should have to be moved to a different date at which neither you nor a colleague can attend, you will also receive a full refund if you let us know when we announce the new date. If you cannot attend e.g. because of illness, you can transfer the ticket to a colleague at your organisation (but please inform us in advance). For anything not covered here, contact us and we’ll find a solution!
