In addition to paying all of our speakers a small honorarium, and providing our organizers with a modest wage, the money raised through admission will be used to cover operational expenses such as website hosting and functionality upgrades, extra bandwidth to make sure the site doesn’t crash due to traffic load, raffle items and shipping, PayPal and Stripe (credit card) fees, and, of course, the ever-present taxes. After all of our costs are accounted for, we break even each year.
