<div dir="ltr">Hi, some of the speakers requesting support specifically state not having any money as being the reason they need the support. I would agree with Hugh that it doesn't seem to make sense to have speakers we decide to give a ticket to pay for the ticket and then reimbursing them at the event as it's not a direct expense. Other costs I would rather pay after in case of no-show<br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, 11 May 2022 at 22:39, Aschwin Marsman via Content <<a href="mailto:content@lists.ifcat.org">content@lists.ifcat.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>

I should have been more specific, this is for speakers requesting money for e.g. flight tickets.<br>
