    YEN-FU LGoal: To raise $15,000 ~ $25,000

YEN-FU LBudget?

    Eric Tsaiwhat's the budget plan on this?! Why $25,000?
    Hsin Hsiaowow I like this number!
    Eric TsaiI'd like to have $25,000 for budgeting but why so much?
    Yen-Fu LinWell, I just made up this number. I think at least we will need 15,000.
    Chiohh Carolinemight have to explain/justify why $25,000... it will help when asking for larger amount of donation
    Eric Tsaibudget sheet required. Need someone with finance background to do this. Wasn't there someone who said they were consulting? Time to bust out those excel sheets
    Yen-Fu LinThis number depends greatly on how big the event we want
    Eric TsaiNeed to form a budget committee asap and core team to figure out the scale of the event
    Hsin HsiaoI think let's do 100 people event $1,5000 for now - makes sense?
    Yen-Fu LinNo event plan no budget, No budget no sense haha.
    Chiohh Caroline$150 per person? Will lodging be provided?
    Hsin Hsiao$1,5000 includes venue costs and so on, so not quite $150 per person
    Chiohh Caroline you can also split venue cost per attendee... that's okay.
    Chiohh Carolineare you guys having speakers? traveling cost for the speakers?
    Hsin HsiaoRoughly, not sure if it makes sense: $2K - 3K venue, $4K - 6K speaker, $2K food, rest - everything else
    Hsin Hsiaoso probably need $1,5000 - 20,000
    Chiohh CarolineSo I just looked at DC's budget/actual.... not including speaker expenses... it was about $80 per person (venue/food/etc... no lodging...)
    Cheng-Chien KuoIf we use $80 per person x 100 ppl = $8,000.
    Cheng-Chien KuoVenue cost in NYC is more expensive than DC. ( + $2,000 ),
    Cheng-Chien KuoTwo speakers from Taiwan ( $3K each = $6,000 )
    Cheng-Chien Kuoone speaker from NYC ( $500 ~ $1,000)
    Cheng-Chien KuoI'd say $1,7000 as our target.
    Yen-Fu LinHow about Lodging and Travel subsidies?
