Many say contests are the most exciting part of Positive Hack Days. And this year we have some all-new additions awaiting.

Deloitte is hosting Hackazon, an online contest that offers hackers a chance to warm up before next month's Positive Hack Days. The contest kicks off on April 30 and will last five days. Winners will receive PHDays invites and souvenirs.

Just one month remains until PHDays 8. That makes it the perfect time to start warming up for The Standoff and other hacker-versus-hacker excitement! The weeks leading up to PHDays will be filled with action, in the form of two online contests: HackQuest and Competitive Intelligence. Don't miss your chance to compete—winners will receive prizes, including free invites to PHDays.

Just days remain until the end of the Call for Papers! The program committee has already selected the first group of speakers for technical talks, and in early March we announced the key speaker Ilfak Guilfanov. If you're excited about the chance to speak from the same podium, don't delay—the deadline to submit your proposal is March 31. In the meantime, we'd like to present another big name who will be addressing PHDays 8.  

Proposals for talks at Positive Hack Days are still streaming in! Based on popular demand, we have extended the Call for Papers until March 31. This means a few additional weeks to submit proposals, so we hope to see even more people taking advantage of this special opportunity!

The keynote speaker at PHDays 8 will be developer Ilfak Guilfanov, known for authoring the IDA Pro disassembler and Hex-Rays decompiler.

Tomorrow is the last day to pick up PHDays 8 tickets at a discounted rate! Starting March 1, a two-day ticket will cost 14,400 rubles and a one-day ticket will be 9,600 rubles. Quantities are limited. Don't miss out!
