It is the third conference taking place on the Balkans. BalCCon brings together hackers, hacktivists and computer enthusiasts from this area and they are joined by fellow hackers from all over the world.

One part of the congress will be dedicated to hacking, project and hacks.
CfP note: This event favours hacks, hacktivism, gadgets programming, free software on new devices, freedom, ... It feels like there are no introduction/beginner talks (unless it is hot new topic).
