Vision Statement

Together we build a smart secure future; In silos we stagnate. 


Governments, Small Businesses /Nonprofits, and Industry re-discover pressing needs of our time, re-envision strategies, and re-connect to share the latest resources, innovations, and success stories.

How do you protect what you have and grow against cyberattackers and threats? With a busy schedule and not a whole lot of coins too. Come and network with people who have done it, and telling people what you need.

95% of the attendees said they learned useful information and planned to recommend actions to their management at work, even family and kids last year. Join the several hundred people in our government-and-community-organized Symposium to win in our increasingly digitalized future aided by AI, 5G and more!

Act locally, impact globally – Successful use cases will be shared across 200+ GCTC participating cities and communities. As GCTC Cybersecurity and Privacy Advisory Committee’s annual event on the west coast, the event gathers national and international thought leaders and pioneers for securing Smart Cities in governments, private sector partners, nonprofits and academia.

A bold, innovative, community-centered approach is imperative to solve one of the biggest challenges of our time.  And solve we must. Join the visionary and pragmatic leaders of our day from Washington DC to San Jose and 500 SMB-G decision makers, implementers and professional volunteers.  Together, let’s enable Smart Secure Cities and Communities for generations to come.

1 Day, 40+ Speakers & Opportunities for SMB-G, Nonprofits, and Public Schools.  Lunch will be provided. Post event raffle and networking is arranged for your enjoyment. Free professional headshot will be onsite as well. Free parking.
