Hello! We are happy to announce our new workshop! Organizing scientific events—workshops, summer schools, conferences, symposia—seems like a complex and overwhelming endeavor. You need to design the structure of your event, secure funding, invite guests, promote it, process payments, and contact participants; you need to take care of catering, flights, hotels, and dates. It is a lot, but with a proper approach, some knowledge, and the right people around you, you can organize a successful event even with limited resources. During our workshop, you will learn how to: - design your event, select its target and set goals - secure funding: find sponsors, write grant applications - promote your event on social media and mailing groups - how to approach graphic design - how to contact guests and prepare invitations - how to proceed with funding: event fees, grants, sponsors’ money - how to ensure a good atmosphere - what to do afterward And much more! The event will take place on Thursday, Dec 5th at Nencki Institute, 10 AM – 1 PM. The cost of the workshop is EUR 25.
