Volunteer Registration will be open from 21 July 2022, 09:00 PM to 25 July 2022, 09:00 PM.
Thank you for expressing interest in volunteering for bSides. As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to gain valuable experience while contributing to the success of the event. Before signing up and completing the registration process, we kindly request that all interested candidates carefully review and understand the following terms and conditions:

Volunteers are expected to commit to a minimum of 1 full day of work, equivalent to 10 hours. Each day at bSides is divided into two shifts of 5 hours each.
During your shift, you will be provided with lunch and snacks, and you can take short breaks to rest and recharge.
While we understand the allure of enjoying the beautiful beaches and vibrant nightlife in Kochi, it is essential to report to your assigned shift on time and avoid making excuses during the event. Punctuality is of utmost importance.
Accommodation will be provided by the bSides Team. However, if you prefer to arrange your own accommodation at your own expense and responsibility, you are free to do so.
We recognize that you may wish to attend specific talks or sessions during the conference. To accommodate this, please communicate with the group leaders before the start of each day so that they can arrange for replacements. However, once you are in your assigned shift, no requests for shift changes will be accepted.

All volunteers are required to report to the Main Venue (Grand Hyatt) at 12:00 pm on 8th September 2022 to assist with setting up the conference.
At the conclusion of the event, all volunteers must stay at the venue until 5:00 pm on 10th September 2022 to ensure the proper tear down of the event zone.

Shared accommodation with breakfast will be provided for all volunteers at the Kochi International Center, arranged by bSides. Hotel check-in will be on 8th September 2022, and check-out will be on 11th September 2022.

Upon successful completion of the conference, we will organize an exclusive Cocktail Dinner for the Con-Trollers on the evening of 10th September 2022. The venue and timing will be communicated during the conference.

Volunteers who fail to fulfil their committed shifts will be responsible for covering the cost of accommodation and the complimentary registration pass provided.
bSides reserves the right to cancel volunteer benefits in the event of misconduct or violation of the conference’s code of conduct.
Any instances of misconduct reported may result in the candidate being blacklisted from future volunteering opportunities at bSides events.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We look forward to your enthusiastic participation!
