Are you interested in speaking at VetSecCon 2022? We are looking for leaders in the industry as well as military transition experts from all branches of the US military and friendly allies to speak and help our mission of helping veterans transitioning into cyber security. We are also looking for presenters to run workshops! If you are interested in sharing with our community, please review the details and process below, and submit your talk information ASAP!
