  • By submitting a proposal you are not guaranteed acceptance and even after
    NXNE accepts a proposal and they maintain the right to cancel it at any time.
  • NXNEi generally does not offer honorariums or cover travel costs for
    presentation/panel submissions. If accepted all people involved in the
    presentation will receive conference badges and music festival passes.
  • If you submit a panel idea, NXNE expects that you will be able to commit
    the time necessary to help organize the panel, including finding panelists
    and moderators.
