This is very important so we are going to say it again:
** All attendance this year will be via pre-registration **
We know this is a big change, but we will not be able to accommodate walk-ins this year. This is for a couple of reasons. We love all our attendees and we're incredibly pleased and humbled to have proven so popular. Unfortunately with popularity can sometimes come issues, and the past couple of years have put us in the unenviable position of having to turn a fair number of hopeful walk-ins away at the door. That felt terrible. We don't want to do that again. So this year, we're guaranteeing your spot with pre-registration. Once again, we will be sure to communicate the details in advance, including how to register. Just don't forget - No walk-ins in 2019!
Location
Alchemy Security - Denver, CO - Locally owned and operated
Size
This year, much smaller! Why? We want to work on getting back to our roots. Conversations. Interactions between speakers and audiences. The chance to make lasting connections instead of being overwhelmed by meeting hundreds of people who's names you won't remember by the end of the day. We're still about InfoSec Education, rest assured that will never change, but in the past trying to gather enough quality content to fill the number of presentation hours we had proved to be a challenge. We did our best, but there's only so much you can gather for a local conference, and we'd rather have quality than quantity. There are lots of 'big' conferences. We're a small one.
Other things
Lots of stuff is still in flux. But no matter what, we plan to have BSides Denver with quality content, informative conversations among Security enthusiasts, and a good time had by all. We hope you can understand and will still love us!
