Summer is almost here!

After all the talks, workshops, conferences, and busy schedules, it's time for something different: a relaxed summer evening with the WICCA community.

On June 26, we're inviting you to join us at Broedplaats Bogotá in Halfweg for an informal social meetup. No presentations, no agenda, just good conversations, new connections, and a chance to enjoy the start of summer together.

Find all the information and RSVP here: https://www.meetup.com/wiccanl/events/315196487/

We're also celebrating a small milestone. In January, Chantal Stekelenburg (Founder of WICCA) and Nancy Beers started working together as Sanne Cyber. We celebrated the launch with just the two of us, but six months later we'd much rather celebrate with the community that has supported us along the way.

This is a mixed meetup, so everyone is welcome regardless of gender. Whether you're a long-time WICCA member, new to cybersecurity, or simply curious to meet the community, we'd love to see you there.

📅 June 26

🕖 19:00 until sunset

📍 Broedplaats Bogotá, Halfweg

Bring your summer mood, and we'll take care of the rest. ☀️🍹

🐈‍⬛ WICCON

A community-driven cybersecurity conference focused on showcasing women’s technical work, sharing knowledge, and making space for voices that deserve to be heard.

🎤 The CFP is closing on June 30

Got an idea? A rant? A weird niche obsession? A cool project?
Submit it.

You don’t need to be a “professional speaker.” You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need something worth sharing.
👉 Submit your talk: https://wiccon.nl/call-for-papers

🎟️ Buy your ticket!

If you know you’re coming (you are), grab your ticket now! That would really help us with funding the conference.

🤝 Want to support WICCON?

WICCON is community-driven and that also means it’s supported by partners who believe in making the cybersecurity space more inclusive.

We’re currently looking for sponsors who want to:

• support underrepresented voices in cybersecurity
• connect with a highly engaged audience
• be part of building something that actually makes a difference

👉 Become a sponsor: https://wiccon.nl/sponsors
(Or forward this to someone in your company who should absolutely see this 👀)

🖤 Final note

WICCON exists because people show up early.

Speakers. Sponsors. Volunteers. Attendees. People who weren’t sure they were “ready” (spoiler: you never are).

So consider this your sign.

• Submit the thing.
• Join the session.
• Bring your company.
• Come build this with us.
