About Our Rates:The Bioneers Conference is not a source of profit. Our standard registration rates are deeply subsidized to make the experience available for people from all walks of life. If we were to charge the actual cost, tickets would be closer to $1500 each. We encourage you to register at the price you can afford — and know your purchase is part of the Bioneers community traditions of diversity and inclusivity.
Individual: You are buying your tickets without employer funding, or have a more modest personal budget.
Pay-It-Forward: If you’re an individual or organization with the means, please register at the Pay-it-Forward rate this year. Note that this rate is still quite reasonable compared to similar three-day events. When you Pay It Forward by buying a higher-priced ticket, you make it possible for someone who shares your commitment but has more limited funds to attend Bioneers 2025. Let’s continue to build a movement that brings everyone to the table.
Student, Educator, Activist and Limited-Income Senior: Bioneers offers special-rate tickets to students, educators, activists and seniors with limited incomes only. Please use this rate if you need it - we want you at Bioneers!
Bioneers 2025 Rates include platform fees. Please note that our registration rates increase as the conference approaches. Register early and we look forward to seeing you in March!
