Which timezone does the conference cater to?

We have structured the program in such a way that most regions can access at least 6 hours of programming, as our intention was to reach as many timezones as possible.

The displayed program on the website is in UTC. We recommend Time Buddy for determining your local time.

What does the ticket cost go towards?kirstenclacey2021-08-18T18:14:16+02:00

What does the ticket cost go towards?

Our primary costs for this conference are software costs (for example website development). Once we have covered these costs, the speaker honorariums will be funded by the profits from the conference. Rather than offering a fixed speaker honorarium, we are doing an experiment: the profit derived from Unmute will be distributed among speakers.
