Growing a conference is hard. While we'd love to accept all offers to participate, we have implemented a strict slow growth plan. We sent invites to people who will join us for 2020. The field of applicants was large, and unfortunately we can't accept every offer to help. Mahalo
Our CFP will be opening sometime in June. We will announce it here and on our mailing list (signup form is on our website). We are looking for blue/purple team, builder/defender content. We cover travel when necessary.
