What you likely need
You're at the earliest and most critical inflection point for Ferentin — pre-revenue, pre-funding, and racing to establish credibility in a crowded AI security market before better-funded competitors define the category. The Festival events most valuable to you right now are small, high-trust rooms where you can pressure-test your Zero Trust for agentic AI thesis with security-focused investors, convert your Zscaler and Okta relationships into design-partner pilots, and find the founding engineer who can take Ferentin from prototype to product. Public signal and warm intros are your leverage — every room you walk into should move one of those two needles.
