Impressions from PHDays Fest. 
The scale was just insane. You walk and walk – and there’s action everywhere, and all of it is PHDays, every bit of it. 
It totally blew my mind, I saw just a tiny fraction of everything that was going on. 
In the public area, I was impressed by the university pavilions – BMSTU, HSE, MSU, ITMO, and Polytech. I see a lot of potential here for smaller activities, like alumni talks. I’ll try to be part of something like that next year. 
In the ticketed-access exhibition area, I mostly hung out at Security Vision booth. Great folks – I learned a lot about their VM product; will share insights soon. 
As for my own talk – everything was really well organized. 
Huge thanks to everyone who came and asked questions! 
I caught other talks in bits and pieces – planning to watch the full recordings later.
Thanks to the organizers! It was awesome! See you next year!
