Additional Costs.

1. We ask attendees to cover their own transportation to and from the airports.

Let's talk about health and safety.

1. If you become ill before, during or after the event, please contact us to explore options that keep you healthy and avoid spreading anything to your fellow attendees.
    
2. Stay hydrated. You will be able to refill a water bottle at Optica Headquarters.
    
3. Drink responsibly. Alcoholic beverages will be avaiable occasionally during the event. We love a party, but Innovation works best if you keep your wits about you.

Here's what we think you should wear and bring.

1. Ausgust in Washington, DC is hot and humid. Optica Headquarters is air-conditioned. Plan to bring a jacket or something to layer when indoors (and immediately take off when you walk outside into the heat).
    
2. Plan for a rainstorm at least one day and bring a portable umbrella.
    
3. Bring some shoes you can walk comfortably in.
    
4. Leave gowns, tuxedos, tiaras, etc. at home. The dress code is casual. You're meeting peers, colleagues and mentors, but don't overthink it.
