EURO MEETING APPLICANTS ONLY
I understand that English is the business language of the 25th Annual EuroMeeting 2013. I am confident of my ability to participate in the meeting.

As there are restricted numbers of fully supported places, if you are selected for the group whose registration fees are waived only, you would be required to pay your own travel and accommodation costs. If this is the case, would you still be willing to attend the EuroMeeting 2013?
