Thank you to the dozens of volunteers and ambassadors who helped plan, set up, and run Hackers on the Hill this year, as well as the ~150 hackers who attended and the 20+ staffers who were gracious enough to host us (many on a day their office was officially closed). ❤️

A few special thank yous

The first Policy Village at BSides Ottawa was a success! Thanks to the speakers, attendees, & organizers who made it happen. Next year’s edition will include a CFP—help us spread the word! If you know someone in public policy, let’s connect. @hackersonthehill.org
