While Martin is 100% right that we would prefer the new board member to
join us for that meeting, we will certainly consider candidates who
can't attend it. We would rather have a suitable candidate with that
limitation than no suitable candidate at all. It's simply a downside
compared to a suitable candidate without that limitation.

If this would be the reason you or anyone else doesn't apply, please
apply anyway, just be clear about that in your email of interest to
board(at)spi-inc(dot)org(dot)

To be precise about the f2f logistics: arrive NYC October 4, leave NYC
October 7, SPI will cover reasonable expenses associated with the trip,
and also assist with ESTA/VWP or B-1 visa application if necessary.
