ANNOUNCEMENT: APRICOT 2010 FELLOWSHIPS NOW OPEN

The annual APRICOT conference is a unique and successful educational forum for Internet builders in the Asia-Pacific region, to learn from their peers and from leaders in the Internet community.

Senior practitioners from the Asia Pacific and around the world contribute their time to APRICOT as presenters, teachers and trainers, to produce a non-commercial conference of consistently high quality.

Since 2000, APRICOT has incorporated a Fellowship Program to provide opportunities to developing country personnel to participate in APRICOT. The Program provides financial assistance to selected applicants to cover some of the expenses associated with attending the conference.

For the year 2010, the APRICOT Fellowship Award Package will include a partial airfare travel subsidy, registration for all tutorial and conference sessions, accommodation and and a daily expense allowance.
