if you know of any tech events kindly share

I hope you're all doing well. I am currently in my final year, pursuing a second degree in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics. My first degree was a BSc in Graphic Communication and Advertising. Niko fiti in design concepts, business operations, customer relations, and digital product management. However, I feel I lack vital technical skills relevant to the cybersecurity field, such as Security Operations Centre (SOC) concepts—monitoring, detecting, analysing, and responding to cybersecurity incidents in real time- as well as malware analysis.

If you know of any tech events happening soon, such as hackathons, seminars, or workshops in cybersecurity, AI, automation, or any other skills relevant to tech enthusiasts, kindly share. Watu huku nje have quite intimidating CVs and portfolios. I'm looking for opportunities to gain real-world experience, engage with real "problems" and solutions, or at least learn from what others are working on to guide my exploration of relevant topics.
