Travel Funding

We place an emphasis on funding applicants who are from historically underrepresented or untapped groups and/or those of lower socioeconomic status. If you work for a company that has the ability to fund your travel, we ask that you not apply, to save funds for those in need.

We receive thousands of requests for funding each year. CNCF is trying to use funds to assist as many people as possible. As such:

• We are often unable to fund one person across multiple events in a year
• Lower cost travel funding requests are more likely to get approved
• We typically do not fund the same person two years in a row

Travel funding scholarship recipients may receive up to a max of $2,000 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: economy train, bus or airfare, hotel / accommodations (up to four nights), and transportation to and from the airport/train/bus station.

Please note: If you do not live in Hong Kong, it is important that you check with your local embassy regarding travel requirements (and timelines) before proceeding with the application.

差旅资助

我们侧重于资助来自历史上代表性不足或未开发的群体和/或社会经济地位较低的申请人。如果您效力的公司有能力资助您的差旅，我们要求您不要申请，以便为迫切需要的人士节省资金。

我们每年收到数以千计的资助申请。云原生计算基金会 (Cloud Native Computing Foundation, CNCF) 正在尝试利用资金帮助尽可能多的人士。因此：

• 我们通常无法在一年内资助一个人参加多个活动
• 成本较低的差旅资助申请更有可能获得批准
• 我们通常不会连续两年资助同一个人

差旅资助奖学金获得者最多可获得 $2,000 美元，用于报销实际差旅费用。请注意，报销将在活动后进行，津贴仅用于以下用途：经济型火车、公共汽车或机票、酒店/住宿（最多四晚），以及往返机场/火车站/汽车站的交通费用。

请注意：如果您不住在香港，在继续办理申请之前，请务必向当地大使馆咨询旅行要求（和时间表）。
