Overview of volunteer roles and responsibilities

In order to make sure the up and coming BSides København event can live up to the hype, we are looking for volunteers.

Show up this Thursday (03/10/19) at 1700 hours at ITU Rued Langgaards Vej 7, 2300 København S.

We will be at the reception with a BSides København sign.

 

Goons/Volunteer Roles:

Your tasks will include

  • Presenting each speaker
  • Keeping track of the allocated time slots for each speaker.
  • Informing speakers when their time is at the halfway mark and again with 5 min left.
  • Making sure that questions are dealt with in an orderly fashion.
  • Attendance in the auditorium will be a requirement for the duration of the conference day.

Recording Squad (Video/Audio/Photo) (2 persons)

NOTE: You need to bring your own equipment for the OSINT CTF; we have a GoPro that can be used if needed. For the main event at ITU we will have equipment on site.

Your tasks will include:

  • Take pictures at the venue
    • We need stock photos and various shots from the event, which we can use going forward for the website and other media. It is not a full time-document everything assignment, but we expect photos to be taken on and off during the day. Breaks are taken at own leisure.
