Do you dream of applying to speak at a conference? Need to flesh out a presentation idea? Not sure where to start?
Join us as we break down what the talk proposal process entails, and get words onto paper! In this hands-on workshop, we will:
-Brainstorm and fine-tune presentation ideas individually and in groups
-Walk through how to structure and deliver content
-Write drafts of talk abstracts and outlines
-Provide peer feedback on abstracts and outlines
Bring your desire to transform ideas into viable proposals for security cons or other technical conferences, and prepare to deliver and receive constructive peer feedback!
Laptops are optional - you will be writing, but you may do so either on a laptop or on paper.
