What is SKISO?

What is SKISO?

 SKISO is a social gathering for our global circle of friends and colleagues in the famous Canadian Rockies. Rich in vibe and goodwill, SKISO is meant to help build and strengthen relationships among security practitioners and to connect with early-stage cyber startups entrepreneurs.

We value quality relationships and real friendships, and bring only the best members of our community together.

SKISO is a "NO PITCH" conference. This means no awkward or out of context ,forced conversations.

Any introductions to the participating companies and their products will happen before and after the event, not while you are here to spend time with your peers and colleagues.   

Skiing is optional: You DO NOT have to ski or snowboard to participate in SKISO. We use winter sports as an excuse to get together and have a blast. Both Banff and Kananaskis offer incredible opportunities to enjoy time on and off the snow.

If you want to get outdoors and take part, both ski and snowboardilessons are available at the resorts.



"The Banff Experience" and SKISO 2026 are two connected events. You can join either one or both.
