Yes! The EUR Digital Systems for Humans is pleased to offer this moment to you and your guests (up to 2 maximum) and to celebrate your success.

We are happy to welcome your loved ones to this important moment of your student life. However, due to the limited capacity of the venue, the number of guests per graduate is strictly limited to 2 people maximum. NO EXCEPTION IS POSSIBLE.

• The graduate is responsible for their own registration AND that of their guests. Guests cannot register individually.
• Overbooking: please do not reserve seats unless you (or your guests) are certain you can attend.
• If the graduate wishes to add one or two guests who were not included in the initial registration, they must complete a new registration. This will automatically cancel the first registration (only the most recent registration will be kept).
• If one or more expected guests can no longer attend, please redo your registration to free seats for other participants. This will cancel the previous registration (tickets initially planned for guests not included in the updated registration will be cancelled).

Yes, but please note:

• If the graduate wishes to add one or two guests who were not included in the initial registration, they must complete a new registration. This will automatically cancel the previous one.
• If one or more expected guests can no longer attend, please redo your registration to free seats for other participants. This will cancel the previous registration (tickets initially planned for guests not included in the updated registration will be cancelled).
• Every new registration automatically cancels the previous one. Registrations do not accumulate: if you first register alone, then register again with guest A, then a third time with guest B, the ticket for guest A will be cancelled. If you want to come with 2 guests A and B, you must make a single group registration for 3 people (graduate + 2 guests A and B).

• If multiple registrations are made under the same graduate’s name, only the most recent registration will be kept. All other tickets will be cancelled by the organizers.
• Overbooking: please do not reserve seats unless you (or your guests) are certain you can attend.
• Every new registration automatically cancels the previous one. Registrations do not accumulate.
