I am a newbie / n00b can I attend?

Yes. ROOTCON welcomes everyone, from beginners to seasoned professionals. We’re here to learn and share with each other.

What do I need to bring, do I need to bring laptop?

It depends on how you’re participating. If you’ll be playing CTF, you’ll need a laptop. If you’re just attending talks, meeting friends (old and new), or exploring the village, you probably won’t need one.

What are the types of badges?

There’s the official badge, an electronic version with extra features, and the Type-B badge, a simpler non-electronic option. It’s more basic, but it still carries ROOTCON’s signature style and stands out from ordinary conference badges.

How do I get an electronic badge?

Electronic badges will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis during on-site check-in, while supplies last. If you don’t manage to snag one, you’ll receive the Type-B badge. Human+ and Blackcard members will be guaranteed an electronic badge

Do you sell swags on-site?

Yes we do, however sizes might be very limited, so we suggest you buy online via our Official Lazada shop.
