General Submission Notes
Entertainment and education go hand in hand. InfowarCon speakers are among
the best in the world, and we want all attendees to get the most value for
their time. Please keep the following in mind:
* Your Audience:
o Multi-media presentations, real-time scenarios or gaming,
audience participation and highly interactive topics are more likely to be
accepted by the Board of Advisors and appreciated by your Audience.
Debate, controversy, dissimilar positions and opinions have always been
encouraged and appreciated at InfowarCon.
o English is the official conference language and all sessions
will be unclassified. Your Audience is military, intelligence, commercial
and international. Some are very technical and others are very senior,
non-technical.

Real-World Problems, as well as being made aware of future possibilities.
Your Audience wants to come away with something tangible to do, enact,
change, design, buy or enforce.

Handouts should accurately reflect the presentation.
