Keren Elazari - Closing words

so what did we have during this day we had an amazing viewership of more than 4,000 viewers from all over the world we had 16 awesome speakers here on stage and remotely panelists from our own team and speakers that have been here for the first time speakers that are rockstars and coming back to help us out we had an incredible mix of people from all over Israel but also from Europe and from North America and we are so thankful to all of our amazing speakers at the end of the day this is the content that our community connects with each other to to learn about and it's really what makes this event possible we had more than

7,000 conversations going on on slack in fact we're almost at the limit where we're taking advantage of our free slack subscription I guess that's what you call it that's right so we had amazing conversations going on not just today but actually starting already a week ago with the CTF that got a lot of people on line and talking and we're really really proud to bring into a reality what besides as a community is all about expanding the boundaries of the conversation and making the conversation happen in all sorts of formats and events all sorts of ways and this is really an exciting opportunity for us here in tel-aviv to show the world what we are capable of doing what we're

capable to bring in for everybody not just to the tel-aviv community that has been enjoying this event for the past five years since we started in 2016 can I have my slides back please thank you so I hope you still seeing my slides I'm not sure we are having a slight technical difficulty thank you very much I would love to have it on the monitor as well if you can thank you so much so I hope you're seeing my slides properly like I mentioned we had more than 4,000 viewers we had 16 awesome speakers we had more than 7,000 slack conversations we are expanding the boundaries of the conversation we had one unfortunate and illegal zoom
