In less than two months, our fantastic team of volunteers will be putting on the inaugural BSides Den Haag (English: The Hague) event in the Netherlands. We’re aiming for a one-day event with 70-80 attendees, although we can accommodate a bit more.

Our CFP review process is well underway, and we’re starting to formulate our agenda. With tickets going live in the coming days, the excitement is building. We have about 20 submissions from 16 people, so we do welcome some late submissions, but it’s a decent initial kickstart.

Our hope is, of course, that the Den Haag chapter becomes much more than an annual event; we hope to build a thriving community with a shared passion; a place to share knowledge, research, and the latest innovations in our field.

Co-founders are Cody Barrow, CEO of EclecticIQ,  Jake Norwood, who runs Booz Allen Hamilton’s Europe & UK commercial business, and Rich Wickersham, who many of you may know from BSides NoVA.
