Travel details and costs

 

The mission's program runs from Tuesday April 16th till Thursday April 18th. For information on the program see the tab 'Program'.

 

Confirmation of participation

Please note that your participation in this mission will be confirmed by the organising parties. The organising parties reserve the right to reject your application if they believe your company does not fit the envisaged profile. Moreover, there is limited capacity for this mission. Therefore, please wait with booking flights and hotels until your participation has been confirmed.

 

Costs

The participation fee for startups* is €150 p.p. excluding VAT. For SME’s €400 p.p. excluding VAT will be charged. This fee includes the programming for the two days, most lunches and dinners, and local transport. Hotels, flights and other out-of-pocket costs are not included.

Please note: for Dutch companies who decide to combine participating in this mission with the BOSteRDAM program a discount will be applied. If you sign up for the BOSteRDAM program before the mission, your participation in the mission will be free of charge. If you decide to participate in the BOSteRDAM program after the mission has ended, we will detract the mission fee from the BOSteRDAM fee. For more information on the program see the 'BOSteRDAM Cleantech Link' tab.

Flights 

We recommend you arrive in Boston on the 16th of April in the afternoon as the program starts in the late afternoon. The following flights are most suitable for participants travelling from the Netherlands. However, if you have alternative preferences (for example if you want to combine participation in the mission with the BOSteRDAM program, want to stay longer, or travel from another country), MTS will gladly discuss these with you, and offer you an appropriate solution.
