As we prepare for this years conference circuit here is an appreciation post for those who dont stand in the limelight but make the limelight possible.
From the HackerSummerCamp in USA (Black Hat , defcon, defcon villages and more), we also have our own hackercamp in India (NULLCON, Seasides Information security conference, c0c0n 2023 & various bsides) there are a lot of conferences to attend.
While attending the events has its own perk, I love behind the scene activities more. I have been fortunate enough to be involved with a large number of these conferences in smaller capacities (speaker, trainer, reviewer and more). Every single time I look at the bigger picture of full end to end conference organization my appreciation for those doing the works grows 10 folds.
This is just an appreciation post for these folks. Antriksh Shah Aseem Jakhar Manu Zacharia Prashant venkatesh Steve Wylie
It feels great to be a small part of all these events and to be connected with the awesome folks behind the scene of these conferences. Its fascinating to watch them grow in numbers, outgrowing spaces, expanding, relentlessly working towards providing a good experience for the attendee’s.
Whenever I can attend these conferences the best part for me is to be the fly on the wall and listening to awesome conversations happening all around.
