Conference

The Conference portion of ToorCon Seattle will take place at the Last Supper Club in Seattle's historic Pioneer Square. All presentations will be displayed on all of the projectors and plasma displays throughout the club like last year and there will be bar service throughout the day. The conference schedule will be similar to last year with mostly 20 minute talks and blocks of 5 minute lighting talks. Because we'll be cramming many talks into just a single day we will be setting aside a separate room for speakers to field questions after their talk and for attendees to have conversations without being rude to the person currently presenting. The conference schedule is currently as follows:

Friday, April 18th - Lightning Talks & Party

ToorCon Seattle lightning talks and party at the Public N3rd Area from 8:00pm-1:00am. We'll be providing music, snacks, and free alcohol for all attendees who attend. If you don't know what the Public N3rd Area is, it's Seattle's hacker hideout where all sorts of mayhem happens including the infamous Hackerbot Labs, a weekly hardware hacker hackathon, and other hacker get-togethers and projects. ShmooCon is the official sponsor of the Friday Night Party and will be covering all of the drinks so make sure to thank any Shmoo people there for helping us out! Here's a list of the lightning talks that we've currently accepted.

We've been given the entire Gallery room at the LSC to throw our Saturday Night Party in so we definitely won't disappoint. We've also received sponsorship from many awesome organizations such as ShmooCon, Microsoft, Leviathan, and IOActive whom we're equipping with bottomless pitchers of beer during the conference so make sure to say hi to them at the con for free drinks!
