RVAsec 2021 Recap

December 8, 2021
AnnouncementConference

We have finally recovered from RVAsec and wanted to bring you a quick recap!  We had over 450 attendees for this year and it was great to see everyone back in person!

What we were thrilled to bring you:

Thank you to everyone that took the time to provide us feedback.  We worked long and hard for several months to ensure that we are able to provide the safest conference possible and follow CDC and Virginia COVID recommendations.  We are pleased to report that while we were able to deliver that, in order to make that happen we modified the event from previous years.  We are very hopeful that we can get back to a “normal” RVAsec in 2022.

What to expect in the coming weeks:

Thanks again to all our our speakers, sponsors and volunteers!

Next year, RVAsec will be June 8-9, 2022 at the Omni Hotel Richmond.

See you next year.
