To make it possible for couriers from regions with low purchasing power to attend the CMWC 2024 in Zurich, the entry fees are staggered according to the origin of the participants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, we will provide accommodation and meals for our international guests during the week of the event. Furthermore, a fund has been set up which, for the first time, will also cover messengers from the Africancontinent, where the wage level is lower. continent, where the wage level is particularly low, to fly to the World Championships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
