Teams can check-in on Friday afternoon (September 30th) for the Jamboree beginning at 16.00 h. Registration will be located in the foyer of the VU Main building.
At Registration you will pick up your team box. One team member is sufficient for picking up the team box; otherwise it will be too crowed at the registration desk. This means that each member of the team DOES NOT have to stand in line.
To receive your team box, bring a filled-out release form from each team member that is registered for the Jamboree.
Guests can check-in on Friday (September 30th) from 16.00 h until 19.30 h at the registration desk.

Badges
Team Spirit
At the Jamboree you will be representing your team, university, and country, so why not show off! Designing team t-shirts is always a good idea. Make sure to distinguish your team and be well visible in the iGEM group picture. Wear your team's logo, name, or give a nod to your team's sponsors. We also encourage you to find new ways to showcase your team spirit.
Meeting of Minds
In the night before the team presentations (September 30th), the Rathenau Instituut and the European iGEM organization invites you and political youth organizations for the Meeting of Young Minds. According to a Eurobarometer survey in 2011, only 17% of the European citizens have heard of Synthetic Biology. Thus, time to convince especially future political leaders on the progress and possibilities of SynBio. Join the debate at the VU, beginning at 19.30 h, and get to know your fellow iGEM members opinion and political considerations. There will also be food and drinks provided on a first come, first serve basis. Please see the Meeting of Minds chapter for information about the statements that will be discussed.
Practice presentation
During the Meeting of Minds session at Friday night (September 30th), the teams will be allowed to practice their presentations at the VU. There are a limited number of rooms available, so please sign up online on the practice sessions page to reserve your time-slot. Practice sessions will run from 18:00 to 21:00 h. We cannot match the practice room with the room that you will give your presentation in on Saturday.
