Friends,
The year is well underway, the cherry blossoms have fallen and Devcon fast approaching!
As announced on stage at Ethereal last month, Devcon will be returning to Asia in 2019. We hope you will join us October 8-11 as we meet in Osaka, Japan!
Without further ado, we are excited to reveal new details for this year’s gathering.
TICKETS
Sales for the first wave* of Devcon tickets will go live in mid-July, with at least 7 days’ notice of the exact date and time.
Please note that applications for speakers, scholarships and discounts for builders and students will be reviewed on a rolling basis. We will process as many as possible before the first wave of ticketing, but if you have not received notification when ticketing opens, we recommend purchasing a ticket to ensure you can attend . If your request is later approved for a free or discounted ticket, you will be refunded the difference.
REQUESTS
For future presenters: applications for lectures, workshops and breakout sessions are now available for those looking to perform on stages of all shapes and sizes.
Applications for builder and student discounts, scholarships, sponsors and press are all online at https://devcon.org! There are additional funding opportunities to support the scholarship program – contact sponsorships@ethereum.org for more information.
LOCATION
We are also proud to announce that our Devcon venue will be the ATC Hall in Osaka – a beautiful and modern venue with indoor and outdoor spaces, a direct train stop for quick access to the city center, a view of the docks (for the sailor-inclined among us) and on-site dining and shopping!
Devcon is the only event hosted by the Ethereum Foundation, and our team takes great pride in bringing together an incredible and ever-growing global community each year. We hope this year’s Devcon will be the best yet.
While more details are coming soon, please mark your calendars for each of the dates above, and of course October 8-11, 2019!
See you in Osaka!
— devcon team

*What is a wave? To ensure that tickets are distributed as fairly as possible, we release batches of general admission tickets at multiple intervals, which we call waves.
