Scholarships
The Dr. Shuli Goodman Memorial Fund exists to support individuals who may not otherwise have the opportunity to attend LF Energy Summit in two categories:
Diversity Scholarships
Applicants must be from a traditionally underrepresented and/or marginalized group in the technology and/or open source communities who are unable to attend without some financial assistance. Including, but not limited to: persons identifying as LGBTQIA+, women, persons of color, and/or persons with disabilities.
Need-based Scholarships
Individuals who apply should be active members of the open source community who are unable to attend for financial reasons and are unable to get funding from their companies.
Scholarship recipients will receive complimentary registration to attend LF Energy Summit 2023 in Paris, and up to a maximum of $2,500 USD to reimburse actual travel expenses. Please note that reimbursements are made after the event, and the stipend may only be used for the following: coach airfare, hotel / accommodations (up to four nights), transportation to and from the airport, and visa application fee.
Receipt of a scholarship does not, on its own, guarantee entry to the event. Recipients need to adhere to The Linux Foundation Health and Safety rules and regulations or the scholarship is null and void.
Applicants can be approved for up to 2 (two) Registration Scholarships per calendar year.
