We wish to thank Richard Drijvers, Giorgos Trichopoulos, Steven Briggs, Nicholas Sabin and Io Hughto for their service as RCs for their regions. Their contribution has been huge and the whole Judge Program could only benefit by their presence among Regional Coordinators. We’ll miss you all.

On behalf of all Regional Coordinators we wish to welcome Niels Viaene, Yuval Tzur, Eric Levine, Eric Dustin Brown and Megan Lincott in the Regional Coordinators group. They will start their Regional Coordinator role counting on the support and experience of their corresponding old RCs who will help in the transition.

The selection process has been very difficult and time consuming for all the candidates and for the selection committee and for this reason, Sebastian Pękala, as leader of the process and on behalf of all the panelists, wishes to thank everyone who applied.
