Local Information

  • Location: Stanford's Frances C. Arrillaga Alumni Center. Map here.
  • Accommodation: There are several hotels in downtown Palo Alto. Unfortunately hotels in Palo Alto can be fairly expensive; a more economical option may be shared airbnbs (or shared hotel rooms). In order to facilitate shared housing, we have made a google spreadsheet where participants can share their housing interests and contact information. If you are interested, please contact Mary Wootters at marykw-at-stanford-dot-edu to get access to this spreadsheet.
  • Getting to the venue: The Alumni Center is located on the Stanford campus, about a 20-30-minute walk from downtown Palo Alto. Aside from walking, the Stanford Marguerite Shuttle is a good option; the shuttle is free for everyone (no Stanford ID or anything required).
  • Invitation Letters: If you need an invitation letter, please contact Ruth Harris at rharris3-at-stanford-dot-edu.
  • Stuff to do outside of ITC:
    • We'll have a board game night on Thursday after the ITC program is done. Please RSVP here if you are interested, so that we know how much pizza to get. (See the program for more info -- scroll down to Thursday evening).
    • Here are some other suggestions of local activities.

We thank BitGo for their generous sponsorship.
