A Next-Level Interactive Cybersecurity Experience

2025 Co-op Cyber Tech welcomed nearly 500 registrants to participate in unconventional education opportunities and hands-on learning in a dynamic and engaging environment, creating an immersive experience that fostered meaningful connections:


Co-op Cyber Tech Learning Village

Attendees stepped into the Co-op Cyber Tech Learning Village, a space dedicated to skill-building and hands-on learning. Whether looking to deepen technical expertise (by completing soldering challenges or learn about HMIs or PLCs from the ICS Village), or explore new cybersecurity strategies (like a Capture the Flag challenge or an ICS Escape Room), this interactive environment offered a range of activities to help you grow. Attendees connected with experts and gained practical knowledge that they could apply right away to enhance their co-op’s cybersecurity efforts.


Co-op Cyber Tech Science Fair

Attendees explored the latest in cybersecurity as government, universities, nonprofits and co-ops came together to share their expertise, research, resources, projects and innovations. Registrants discovered new tools, exchanged ideas and gained insights that inspired them to advance cybersecurity within the co-op.


Badgelife Returned to Denver

Our interactive Co-op Cyber Tech badges, packed with cutting-edge features designed to enhance learning and networking, helped registrants stay connected long after the event.
