We are pleased to announce that we will be holding our Summer event in Norwich on 13th June 2024, 4-7pm at the UEA.
Members and non-members of Cyber East are invited to attend this event as we collaborate and share ideas to help ensure businesses in the area have the opportunity to thrive and grow in a secure and safe way.
We will have a guest speakers, an interactive Q&A panel and there will be plenty of opportunity to network with refreshments available.
This event has an attendee fee of £10.00, if you are a student with a valid student ID card please email info@cybereast.co.uk to be registered for a free ticket.
About the £10.00 attendee fee.
As a group of volunteers our East cluster is growing rapidly to share cyber security knowledge, educate and bring you our local community together with employers, students and government bodies. We are also very fortunate to have excellent speakers, who all give their time for free to support this community.
As we continue to increase the number of annual events, support various community initiatives and continue with the positive work we do, we have taken the decision to charge a small fee to attend our events
Charging a fee is not a decision we have taken lightly. We are fortunate as a cluster that we are often supported with free or reduced cost venue hire along with sponsorship to cover venue and refreshment costs for the benefit of our members, so we could continue without charging a fee for attendance. However, our event attendance is growing, we are sometimes over-subscribed, but as with all events there are always a number of registered attendees who are unable to attend for various reasons. Whilst we understand that this can be unavoidable, in fairness to our venues, speakers, sponsors and members, we feel it is important that we do what we can to maximise attendance at events, and opportunities for everyone to attend events when they can.
We believe that by charging a small fee, the proceeds of which will be split between a donation to a registered charity and a prize that will be raffled during the event, we can maximise attendance as much as possible and at the same time support local good causes. We will also continue to keep attendance free for students in line with our skills initiatives.
We hope that our members will understand and support this decision, and we look forward to seeing you at a future event.
