Held every 12 to 18 months by the Council of Europe, the Octopus Conference constitutes one of the biggest and finest platforms of exchange on cybercrime. This year’s Conference will take place in Bucharest, Romania between 13-15 December, providing an opportunity for cybercrime experts from public and private sectors as well as international and non-governmental organisations from all over the world to share experience. High-level interventions are envisaged.
The focus for the 2023 edition will be two-fold:
- Securing and sharing electronic evidence: the tools are here – let’s use them!
- Capacity building on cybercrime and electronic evidence: 10 years of Cybercrime Programme Office (C-PROC) – What impact so far; what’s next?
The conference will also include an expo area with booths where projects, partners and other initiatives will have the possibility to showcase their work.
Participation is subject to registration and is free of charge. Working languages will be English, French and Spanish.
Registration will be open from 1 September to 31 October 2023 on the dedicated Conference webpage.
The Octopus Conference is part of the Octopus Project which is currently funded by voluntary contributions from Canada, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, UK and USA.
