      What exactly is this money going to then? More details are needed here, because this is massively expensive for an online conference, when other online conferences operate at much less. Transparency would be a good thing right now.https://twitter.com/IMC_Leeds/status/1318477582355103745 …

      The IMC is run on a non-profit basis: to ensure the continuation of the Congress, we will need to charge registration fees for #IMC2021. Fees will be ~£100-150 pp. for the five-day Congress, with reduced fees available for less well-off members of our community.

      Fees have not yet been fixed, and costs are indicative to assist delegates with planning. The IMC is not for profit. We were able to offer last year’s much smaller event for free thanks to the generosity of the University of Leeds. 1/2

      2/2 The fee for the virtual event will be substantially less than in-person, reflecting the reduction in some key costs. However, other substantial expenses remain: producing the programme, staffing, development of and running a largescale virtual platform etc.

      I’m not sure how you plan to develop, code, beta test, QA, and then run a virtual platform in the time given, especially considering there are already plenty of types of conferencing software that is out there.

      Worth pointing out that pricing any kind of conference with fees like these when people are coming in from different time zones is pretty ridiculous. Why isn’t the University facilitating a free event again? Or at the very least heavily subsidizing the costs?

      To be fair, the university probably doesn't have any money. If it's anything like mine, they're probably thinking about laying off staff, not paying them to produce programmes or hang around cyberspace guiding people who've been locked out of their virtual seminar room.

      I think that if a university can’t afford to subsidize one of their largest conferences during a pandemic where finances are even tighter for precarious PhDs and ECRs who can’t expense online conferences to their own institutions then maybe they shouldn’t hold the conference.

          I don't know. I've often had to pass on Leeds & other conferences for economic reasons, but I'm not sure how my research would have benefited from conference being cancelled & other scholars being unable to share their work. They usually offer bursaries, they might do this again

          I've never qualified for a bursary myself, since I was too old when penury hit, but I know other people have. Might that be something to investigate?

          There's a huge distinction between the University's ability and its willingness to subsidize it. The humanities are massively devalued in the UK and the IMC is certainly not the university's priority.

          But I'm not sure what purpose cancelling 2021 would serve, except to threaten the jobs of the small but dedicated team who facilitate the IMC.
