BSides Cairo 2019: Closing Remarks - BSidesCAI Team

Again, for the third time, I'm trying.. so fast, the fifth time. Three, two, one. Hello from BSides Cairo, you will never walk alone with BSides Liverpool. One, three, two, one. Hello from BSides Cairo, you will never walk alone with BSides Liverpool. Now we have BSides Cairo 2020. I want to thank all participants, speakers, and sponsors for joining us today. This is the first edition of BSides Cairo in Egypt. My team and I are still small, but we managed to achieve something significant for everyone. We worked very hard for a whole year, and I hope you enjoyed your time with us today. For the next year, you can join us as volunteers or guest speakers to share more knowledge. And if anyone is upset with us because of something we didn't do, I'm sorry. Next year will be even better and bigger for everyone.

Let's talk about the 2020 edition. How can you join us in 2020 and become speakers? First, I want to thank the speakers, the subject is very simple but most users find it difficult to stand on their own on stage. This is the second time I stand on stage. There are three important factors to remember when you're on stage: project, content, and presentation. The content is what determines if you succeed or not. Most people in the breaks asked why the speakers are foreigners, this is a valid question. We had 40 submissions and we chose the best content. It's important to have a specific style so people can understand you. You also need to have presentation skills to share your project idea with everyone. If you look at the speakers, they were all good and used bullet points. And you need to stick with the time, tell the users the timing and content of your session in the beginning. In the first three minutes, the users may choose to follow or not. I want to thank Alex, Simone, and Hany and I wish they were here today. I want technology used to get to know them and I want to thank you too and hope you join us in our next year edition. If you have any suggestions, you can email us. Thank you.
