Submit A Talk

BSides Maine runs on community voices... not vendor decks or marketing gloss. If you’ve got a project, a technique, a failure story, a weird hack, a live demo, or something you’ve been obsessing over at 2 AM, we want to hear it. Talks, workshops, hardware, reverse engineering, AI misuse, RF experiments, defensive insights — if it’s real and you care about it, pitch it. This is the place to share the things that don’t fit on a corporate stage. NOTE: BSides Maine's CFP closes on 02/28/2026

Want To Help In Other Ways?

BSides Maine is 100% community-powered. If you'd rather build than spectate, we need volunteers to help with setup, registration, speaker support, AV, workshops, and teardown. You don’t need experience - just reliability and a good attitude. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at how a hacker conference runs and help make Maine’s first BSides a success. E-mail us at: volunteers@bsidesmaine.org to let us know you're interested!
