[802.3_DIALOG] 802 July Plenary registration now open



All, registration for the July Plenary is open, information below and in the attached.

 

BE ADVISED: Early registration expires on 17 May 2024 as does the hotel room block. This is earlier than we are used to as this is a restriction from the hotel. BOOK YOUR ROOMS NOW! Early registration is $900 with a $300 discount for a THREE NIGHT STAY at the meeting hotel. If you miss the room block, you will not receive the $300 discount even if you attend in person. Also, be aware there is a joint ITU-T SG 15 / IEEE 802 workshop on 13 July. Details are on the registration page. Participation is free but registration is required.

 

Regards, Chad
