Sponsor BSides Perth 2026
Connect your brand with Western Australia's most engaged cybersecurity audience. Every dollar we receive goes directly back into the conference — no wastage, no sales theatre.
Why Sponsor?
The Conference Everyone is Talking About
BSides Perth is a community-driven framework for building events for and by information security professionals. The goal is to expand the scope of conversation beyond the traditional confines of a corporate conference — it creates opportunities for attendees to both present and participate in an atmosphere that encourages genuine collaboration.
Sponsoring BSides Perth puts your brand in front of security practitioners, researchers, pentesters, defenders, engineers, and students — real decision-makers with real budgets. Our attendees come from across WA and interstate; international speakers and participants regularly fly in specifically for the event.
We plan a proactive advertising campaign running continuously to attract wider audiences from all over Australia and internationally. This is your opportunity to sponsor the security event that the community chooses, year after year, as the one worth attending.

Inclusions Explained
What Each Benefit Means
Here's exactly what you get with each element of your sponsorship package.
Stage Shout-outs
Organisers will open the day by welcoming attendees and thanking sponsors by tier. The frequency and placement of your acknowledgement — start of day, end of day, or intermissions — depends on your package level.
Website Logo
Your logo will be displayed on our website in a section appropriate to your tier — with Platinum sponsors receiving a dedicated write-up in addition to logo placement.
Banner / Booth
A standard pull-up banner (supplied by you) placed in a prominent conference location. Gold sponsors receive two banners plus podium placement; Platinum receive foyer and podium positioning. Nothing larger than a standard pull-up unless discussed and agreed with organizers.
Social Media
Supporter & Silver: shared posts across BSides Perth's LinkedIn and Twitter accounts, tagging your handle. Gold: one dedicated pre-conference post plus a shared post during the event. Platinum: bespoke social campaign agreed directly with your marketing team.
Intermission Slides
From 30 minutes before the first presentation and throughout the day, sponsor slides rotate on-screen between sessions. Supporter/Silver logos appear on a shared slide; Gold logos on a Gold-only slide; Platinum receives a dedicated full-screen slide.
Included Tickets
Your package includes conference passes for your team: 2 for Supporter, 5 for Silver, 10 for Gold, and 15 for Platinum. Use them for your security professionals or pass them on to the community.
