fringes of the Central Business District. On behalf of the applied mathematicians of<br />
Australia and New Zealand, plus our many sponsors who will be strongly featured<br />
throughout the Congress, I extend a warm invitation to visit Australia in 2003. You, and<br />
your accompanying person(s), are invited to participate in a Congress that you will<br />
never forget.<br />
Registration fees<br />
I am grateful to Board members who pointed out the unfortunate psychological<br />
implications of the large "on-site" fee. After discussions with the ICIAM 2003<br />
Treasurer, Dr Summerfield, I have decided to eliminate the "on-site" fee, but to include<br />
a small administrative charge for registrations after 20 June. (The charge is included<br />
because there are definite expenses resulting from the possibility and actuality of very<br />
late registrations).<br />
The following three registration categories will appear forthwith in all our literature. All<br />
figures are in AUD.<br />
Normal Registration Early bird (before 29 November <strong>2002</strong>) $583 Regular (before 7<br />
March 2003) $715.<br />
Late $825 (From 21 June 2003, please add an on-site administration charge of $55 to<br />
this amount, giving a total fee of $880).<br />
Student Registration Early bird (before 29 November <strong>2002</strong>) $242 Regular (before 7<br />
March 2003) $297<br />
Late $352 (From 21 June 2003, please add an on-site administration charge of $55 to<br />
this amount, giving a total fee of $407).<br />
Fund for delegates from developing countries<br />
As a result of suggestions made in Tokyo, I am including in the online registration form<br />
the possibility of donations to a fund for delegates from developing countries.<br />
Donations received will be added to funds of AUD 50K that we expect to receive from<br />
the Australian Government, and to any other industrial donations for this purpose, and<br />
administered in the same way.<br />
Advertisement<br />
I have attached a new advertisement (in pdf format) for ICIAM 2003. We ask that you<br />
print this advertisement in newsletters or similar publications of your society, and also<br />
display it on your web site if that is convenient.<br />
Advertising card<br />
In Tokyo, I was asked if we can prepare and distribute a hard-copy advertising card for<br />
ICIAM 2003. We sent out approximately 12,000 cards in the March edition of SIAM<br />
News, but have not made a similar largescale distribution in Europe. I am preparing<br />
such a card at the moment, and hope to mail it to European and Asian ICIAM<br />
colleagues in approximately two weeks.<br />
Minisymposia<br />
I would like to repeat Ian Sloan's plea in Tokyo - we need a lot of minisymposia. Please<br />
help us make ICIAM 2003 a success by encouraging your colleagues to organise<br />
minisymposia.
