Maximize Your Impact at Black Hat MEA 2025: Engage With Global Cybersecurity Leaders in the Heart of the Middle East
Black Hat MEA 2025, taking place December 2–4 at the Riyadh Exhibition & Convention Center, is one of the most high-profile cybersecurity conferences in the world. With more than 45,000 attendees and 450+ exhibitors, it brings together a global network of ethical hackers, enterprise CISOs, threat analysts, cybersecurity startups, and public sector tech leaders.
This is where zero-day research, critical infrastructure defense strategies, AI-powered threat detection, and nation-state attack response frameworks are discussed in the open. The stakes are high—and the decision-makers here come prepared to evaluate new partners, test real-world solutions, and explore what’s next in proactive defense.
With Vendelux’s enriched attendee list, your team can identify the right contacts ahead of time—from SOC managers to red team leads, CISOs to national cyber policy advisors. This is your opportunity to make technical outreach count before your competitors do.
How Sales and Marketing Teams Can Use This Attendee List
Black Hat MEA attendees are technical buyers who prioritize performance, proof of execution, and operational relevance over brand polish. They respond to use cases, not pitches. Here’s how to act on the enriched attendee list in a way that aligns with their priorities:
Start by identifying security roles across enterprise, defense, and startup sectors—each group has different risk thresholds and purchasing processes. CISOs want integrated platforms that reduce overhead, while SOC leads prioritize detection speed, and red teamers need customizable, testable tools.
Next, plan outreach around their pain points—whether it’s identity sprawl, ransomware containment, incident response automation, or third-party risk. Use Vendelux filters to target by tech stack, industry, or maturity level.
Offer value before asking for time. Share white papers, breach response timelines, MITRE ATT&CK alignment examples, or sandbox test environments. Show you understand how they buy—and more importantly, how they evaluate.
At the event, focus your efforts on securing qualified, technical conversations. Afterward, follow up with deployment plans or integration diagrams, not cold “thanks for stopping by” emails.
When used strategically, the enriched attendee list from Vendelux becomes your pre-event reconnaissance tool—so your team shows up ready to engage with high-fit, high-context conversations.
Timing Is Everything
Black Hat MEA is one of the final major cybersecurity events of the year, making it a prime moment for end-of-year planning and early Q1 procurement. Many security teams use this event to finalize budget allocations, assess vendor performance, or scope new pilots for the year ahead.
With over 45,000 global attendees and participation from key public and private sector organizations across MENA and beyond, timing your outreach is essential. Use Vendelux data to:
- Pinpoint companies currently evaluating vendors or open to new partnerships
- Identify attendees tied to upcoming procurement cycles or pilot programs
- Schedule high-intent meetings weeks in advance
- Align your messaging with regional cybersecurity priorities—resilience, sovereignty, and speed
Engaging early with the right profiles through the enriched attendee list helps your brand stand out long before competitors arrive—and positions you to turn booth conversations into serious follow-ups that carry into 2026.
