Summary

The Lambda NeurIPS 2018 Ticket Contest aims to provide three additional registrations for the conference track at NeurIPS. The contest is open to the community and offers a chance for individuals who were unable to purchase tickets due to them selling out quickly to attend the conference. Applicants will be judged on their ability to make a sound argument for why they want to attend, with selected applicants notified via email or phone and required to confirm flight purchases or hotel reservations before attending. The contest is only open for 48 hours, and Lambda is encouraging community members to share it with others to increase the chances of selection.
