That's an good goal for an event if you can afford it. SOURCE Conference accepts sponsorship, but no sponsorship level includes 'paid keynotes' or track talks.
Any 'vendor' sessions are clearly marked as such, and our advisory board would never accept vendor pitches masquerading as track talks. When you're a smaller event, it's not that hard to keep the vendors where they should be. --chris On Thu, Mar 22, 2012 at 2:27 PM, The Dark Tangent <[email protected]> wrote: > What he said. > > DEF CON has not and will not even accept sponsorship at any level.
