A Paris meetup for real-world cryptography!

RWC Paris is a meetup for people who work on, or are interested in, real-world cryptography. We get a mix of cryptographers, engineers, students, and researchers.

We meet a few times a year. Talks are short and technical. Sponsors cover the venue and food.

Submit a talk for Meetup 5!

Topics

Applied cryptography & cryptographic protocols
Zero-knowledge proof systems & primitives
Cryptographic implementations & engineering
Post-quantum cryptography
Blockchains, cryptocurrencies, & consensus
Privacy-preserving systems & protocols
Security audits & vulnerability case studies

Format

20-minute talks plus Q&A. English preferred.

Deadlines

Rolling submissions until the lineup is full, and we reply to everyone who submits. The new date doesn’t change that, so keep them coming.

Sponsors.

Sponsors organize the meetup, provide the venue, and cover food and drinks.

We want RWC Paris to be a place where anyone curious about real-world cryptography feels welcome, no matter how much of it they already know. If you come, treat the people around you with respect and listen to views you disagree with. That goes for the group chat and email too, not just the room.
