=Call for Presentations=

<center><b>The Call for Presentations will open on 1st October. Visit [https://www.papercall.io/owaspnz2020 PaperCall] to submit yours.</b></center>

==Call for Presentations==

OWASP New Zealand Day conferences attract a high quality of speakers from a variety of security disciplines, including
architects, Web developers and engineers, system administrators, penetration testers, policy specialists and more.

We would like a variety of technical levels in the presentations submitted, corresponding to the three focus areas of the conference:

Track One:

* Introductions to various Information Security topics, and the OWASP projects
* Policy, Compliance and Risk Management

Track Two:
* Technical topics

Introductory talks should appeal to an intermediate to experienced software developer, without requiring a solid grounding in application security or knowledge of OWASP projects. These talks should be engaging, encourage developers to learn more about information security, and give them techniques that they can immediately return to work and apply to their jobs.

This being an OWASP conference, the selection process for talks in Track One will give priority to those related to OWASP's Projects, Tools, and Guidance (check out the current [OWASP Project Inventory](https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Project#tab=Project_Inventory) for more information). If multiple submissions are received related to the same OWASP Project/Tool, preference will be given to speakers actively involved as leaders or members of the respective project teams.

Technical topics are running all day and should appeal to two audiences - experienced software security testers or researchers, and software developers who have a “OWASP Top Ten” level of understanding of web attacks and defences. You could present a lightning, short or long talk on something you have researched, developed yourself, or learnt in your travels. Ideally the topics will have technical depth or novelty so that the majority of attendees learn something new.

We would also like to invite talks that will appeal to those interested in the various non-technical topics that are important in our industry. These talks could focus on the development of policies, dealing with compliance obligations, managing risks within an enterprise, or other issues that could appeal to those in management roles.

We encourage presentations to have a strong component on fixing and prevention of security issues. We are looking for presentations on a wide variety of security topics, including but not limited to:

* Web application security
* Mobile security
* Cloud security
* Secure development
* Vulnerability analysis
* Threat modelling
* Application exploitation
* Exploitation techniques
* Threat and vulnerability countermeasures
* Platform or language security (JavaScript, NodeJS, .NET, Java, RoR, Python, etc)
* Penetration Testing
* Browser and client security
* Application and solution architecture security
* PCI DSS
* Risk management
* Security concepts for C*Os, project managers and other non-technical attendees
* Privacy controls

The submission will be reviewed by the OWASP New Zealand Day conference committee and the highest voted talks will be selected and invited for presentation.

PLEASE NOTE:

* Due to limited funds availability, the conference budget does not include a plan to cover expenses for international speakers. However, as part of the Diversity Fund, we will have funds available to subsidise _local_ expenses (airport taxis, and hotel in Auckland) for international speakers and attendees, on a limited need basis.
* If you are selected as a speaker, and your company is willing to cover travel and accommodation costs, the company will be recognised as a "Supporting Sponsor" of the event.

Please submit your presentation on [https://www.papercall.io/owaspnz2020 PaperCall].

<b>Submission Deadline: Friday, 15th November 2019 for first-round consideration; Final Deadline: Sunday, 15th December.</b>

Applicants will be notified in the following week after the deadline, whether they were successful or not.

== Call For Training ==


We are happy to announce that training will run on Wednesday and Thursday, 19-20 February 2020, the two days before the OWASP NZ Day conference.
The training venue will be in classrooms and Case Study rooms of varying sizes, kindly provided by the University of Auckland School of Business, in the same building as the OWASP NZ Day conference itself.
The largest rooms can accommodate up to 69 attendees, with power for laptop usage and Wi-Fi. A wide range of half-day, one-day, or two-day training proposals will be considered,
see the Call for Presentations for a list of example topics.

The fixed per-attendee fees for training are as follows:
* $325.00 for a half-day session;
* $625.00 for a one-day session; and
* $1,250.00 for a two-day session.

As this training is part of an OWASP event, the OWASP Foundation's revenue sharing policy applies, which allocates 40% of the registration fee to the training presenter ($130 per attendee for a half-day session, $250 for one-day, and $500 for two-day). The per-attendee fee paid will include both paid registrations, and "free" training seats allocated to the conference's premier sponsors.

During each training day, morning and afternoon tea will be provided; lunch will be on your own. 

Training presenters will be automatically registered for the main conference on Friday, 21 February, and will receive complimentary tickets to the Pre-Conference Reception on Thursday evening, 20 February.

Please submit your training proposal on [https://www.papercall.io/owaspnz2020-training PaperCall].

<b>Submission Deadline: Saturday, 30th November 2019</b>

Applicants will be notified in the following week after the deadline, whether they were successful or not. Our goal is to have the training programme finalised before registration opens on 15th December.

=Call for Sponsorships=

==Call For Sponsorships==

OWASP New Zealand Day 2020 will be held in Auckland on the 21st of February, 2020, and is a security conference entirely dedicated to application security.
The conference is once again being hosted by the University of Auckland with their support and assistance.
OWASP New Zealand Day is a very low-cost event, and requires sponsor support to help be an instructive and quality event for the New Zealand community.
OWASP is strictly not for profit. The sponsorship money will be used to help make OWASP New Zealand Day 2020 a compelling, and valuable experience for all attendees.

Sponsorship funds collected are to be used for things such as:

* Venue - Room use and on-site management fees
* Name tags - We feel that getting to know people within the New Zealand community is important, and name tags make that possible
* Promotion - We would like to reach a wider audience, by utilising paid advertising for the event
* Printed Materials - Printed materials will include program information, room signs, and lanyards
* Recognition items for speakers and trainers
* Afternoon tea, to promote a congenial environment for networking among application security professionals

== Facts ==

Last year, the event was supported by six premier sponsors and attracted more than 650 attendees. Plenty of constructive (and positive!) feedback from the audience was received, and we are using this to make the conference more appealing to more people. For more information on the last New Zealand Day event, please visit: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_New_Zealand_Day_2019

The OWASP New Zealand community is strong, with more than 500 people currently subscribed to the mailing list ([https://lists.owasp.org/mailman/listinfo/owasp-newzealand sign up]). OWASP New Zealand Day is expected to attract between 700 and 850 attendees this year.

OWASP regular attendees are IT project managers, IT security managers, IT security consultants, Web application architects and developers, QA managers, QA testers and system administrators.

== How to Become a Sponsor ==

All financial matters related to the conference, including Sponsorship Agreements and payments, are handled through the OWASP Foundation. To express interest in supporting the conference as a sponsor, please [mailto:new-zealand-day@owasp.org contact us by email].

* Logos provided should be full colour
* For lanyards and tote bags (including Platinum/Gold/Silver Sponsors), a single-colour version of the logo should also be provided, in a separate file. If a single-colour version of the logo is not provided by the sponsor, the OWASP New Zealand Day Committee reserves the right to electronically convert the full-colour logo to a single-colour version, or omit the sponsor's logo from the imprinted items if that proves infeasible.

'''Sponsor Banners:''' 

* Lobby and stage-side banners are to be provided by the respective sponsors, must be free-standing, and their size is subject to approval by the OWASP New Zealand Day Committee. 
* The conference venue includes two tracks, conducted in separate auditoriums; Platinum Sponsors may display one banner to the side of each auditorium's stage; Gold Sponsors may display a banner to the side of the stage in one auditorium. Gold Sponsors may express an auditorium preference, but final locations are at the discretion of the OWASP New Zealand Day Committee.
* There will be a maximum of four (4) sponsor banners displayed in each auditorium, with placement priority given to Platinum Sponsors.

'''Promotional Items:'''

* Printed materials are limited in dimensions to A4 size - either a single sheet, printed on one or both sides; or a single A3 sheet, folded in half
* Small imprinted items are also acceptable - pens, stress balls, USB keys, fidget spinners, etc.
* Design of printed materials and imprinted items are subject to approval by OWASP New Zealand Day Committee
* '''RECRUITMENT:''' In addition to the promotional item allowances included in Premium Sponsorship Packages, any sponsor may provide one A5-size card with information on ''actual current'' vacancies for which candidates are actively being sought

'''Reserved Conference Passes'''

Although there is no registration fee for the conference day, there is a hard limit of 1,000 tickets that can be issued for the event. As part of your sponsorship package, you will have the specified number of registrations set aside for you and your team, to ensure you can all take part in the main conference on Friday.

'''Training Passes'''

The listed quantities of Training Day Passes refer to "half-day equivalents." For example, a Platinum sponsor would be entitled to eight (8) seats in half-day classes, four (4) seats in one-day classes, two (2) seats in two-day classes, or any combination up to eight (8) total half-days of training. Training Day Passes may be freely transferred (e.g., as promotional gifts or to sponsor students/unwaged to attend), but may not be resold. 

'''NOTE: All amounts listed are in New Zealand dollars (NZD)'''

= Diversity Fund =

==Diversity and Financial Aid fund==

Thanks to the generous support of our lovely sponsors, we will have some funding available to help people from around New Zealand attend the OWASP NZ Day, who would otherwise find it hard to attend. In particular, we welcome applications from women, people of colour, LGBTIQ, and all others. You all deserve to be able to learn more about security, and we’ll do our best to help make that happen!

Our funds are limited, and we’ll be reviewing applications every week, starting at the end of January. Submit your application soon, so we can approve them promptly, and you’ll be in several review cycles!

Process:

* Fill out our Application Form - Available 1 December 2019
* We will review and approve applications each week. The first reviews will be completed by 20 December.
* We will contact all applicants and let them know the result of the review.
* Successful applicants will be contacted to help sort things out.

We use the following criteria to help us decide who gets approved:

* We are biased towards (but not exclusively for) diverse applicants.
* We do attempt to maximise cost efficiency and will aim to get as many people to OWASP as possible, with our limited funds.

Each successful recipient can choose whether to be kept anonymous (in which case only the OWASP NZ committee will know the details of your funding), or to be put in touch with the supporting company whose sponsorship is going towards your attendance (if applicable). We think some of our sponsors may enjoy the opportunity to chat with you on the day and talk about your experiences and plans for the future, but that’s totally optional and up to you.

If you have any questions, feel free to [mailto:new-zealand-day@owasp.org drop us an email].

==Code of Conduct==

We want to make the OWASP NZ Day a welcoming environment for all attendees. To that end, we would like to remind you that all activities associated with this event are subject to OWASP's [https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Governance/Conference_Policies Conference Policies]. At their core, these policies are intended to promote and maintain an inclusive, welcoming environment for all participants - actions detrimental to that environment are unwelcome.

Speakers, trainers and sponsors have all been reminded of these policies, and are expected to abide by them like all attendees.

If you have any concerns during the day, please seek out John, Austin, or Brendan. We will make ourselves visible at the start of the day, so you know what we look like.
