Testimonials

I found the Mindfluence Security Conference a great use of my time. It was great sharing about a subject I care a lot about and learning from my peers. More importantly, it was very beneficial to network with industry leaders and be exposed to security vendors in a relaxed atmosphere.

I had an amazing time with Gina and other attendees at the Mindfluence event in Napa. I liked the schedule for this event, which catered to our collective needs as Cyber and technology practitioners at the current time. Panels and discussion topics were crafted with quality and finesse in mind, and thanks to Gina and the team for making this happen. I personally learned quite a few things both during the formal & informal sessions. It was fun, engaging and entertaining event, thanks for making me a part of it.

It was a positive experience and I think the whole program was good. The low key networking part along with the interesting questions on the panels make this a great experience for all that attend.

This was my first Mindfluence event which was very well organized and provided an invaluable means by which IT professionals can upskill themselves on latest trends, technologies, and hot topics within the digital space of data security. Furthermore, the networking value-add is something that no IT professional should miss, regardless of the industry vertical represented.

Thank you for facilitating such a fantastic gathering. I met a lot of new people that I hope to continue in my network for years to come. I also enjoyed both participating in and listening to the panel discussions throughout. I’ll have this on my calendar for next year for sure.

Great session organized by Gina. One of the few sessions where the audience was in the right number, spaced out sessions, good time for interactive discussions, retained information and relationship building amongst delegates and vendors.

Mindfluence is a small group of security professionals sharing best practices and building relationships that will better protect the communities they serve. Anyone sharpening their security strategy, seeking to learn from top-tier professionals in the security world will benefit from attending.

Mindfluence is an event that always gives you insights that apply to your environment that can be put to use the next day you are back in the office.

Mindfluence puts together the most practical CISO conferences where CISOs truly talk about challenges and solutions in a collaborative environment.

Mindfluence conferences are unlike any other conferences I've attended. Rather than creating a cattle call, they keep the attendee list short and create a highly immersive experience. The format is fun, and is designed to promote dialogue and to keep attendees engaged. I look forward to participating in many more Mindfluence events!!

What a great venue and unique event! What I loved was not only the venue and the boat cruise (of course!) but our 1:1 meetings with decision makers.

Great format. Busy, but not rushed. 1:1 thinned the crowd, but didn't empty the room. Panels are much better than speakers. Well done.
