Thirtieth International Conference
2–6 March 2026
St. Kitts Marriott Resort

IFCA is currently seeking funding for enhanced financial support for students attending FC26 (please see our sponsorship page for more information). Although grant funding is extremely limited this year, we hope to be able to award a limited number of stipends towards travel and accommodation expenses. Preference will be given to students who will be presenting at the conference or associated workshops, but all student participants are encouraged to apply.

If you are interested in applying for stipend support, please email the FC26 stipend committee by January 31, 2026 at fc26stipends@ifca.ai with subject line "student stipend" and a letter of support from your thesis supervisor or home institution confirming your student status and stating that a stipend would help make it possible for you to attend the conference.

Student awards supported in part by NSF CNS-2505852.

This conference is organized annually by the International Financial Cryptography Association.
