Financial transparency
Every case below assumes no sponsorship revenue at all — the true cost of running WUDC on its own. Sponsorship, when secured, expands scholarships and services further; it is never load-bearing.
Likely case: 600 speaker + 200 judge registrations (300 teams), 70 IAs, and a $50,000 scholarship allocation — already the largest in WUDC history. Even the worst case protects a $25,000 scholarship fund.
