Research presented at ShmooCon
ShmooCon seeks to select talks that are original research and have not been presented at other conventions.
Charitable efforts
Every year ShmooCon supported multiple charities, such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Hackers for Charity, by sponsoring T-shirt sales. Attendees were provided the opportunity to donate a fixed amount of money for a charity in exchange for a T-shirt. ShmooCon also had a long-standing program, Shmooze-A-Student, where attendees could opt to cover an undergraduate college student's ticket fee and stipend when purchasing their own ticket.
