Hi @Quinn_Quinn,

Thank you for putting this proposal together and for your interest in hosting a community hub at Devcon SEA!

We have a few questions and clarifications:

  • Your proposal appears to be geared towards a separate program with talks and workshops happening in parallel to the main conference.
  • Community Hubs are designed to complement the main program on the stages. They will not have stages or microphones and are intended to be small, intimate spaces for discussions on specific topics. The space will be around 32 square meters with about 20-25 chairs for people to sit and chat in the hub.
  • I would be definitely be interested in seeing a community hub focused on web3 education, since it is an important topic and seems like a cool one to tackle through a community hub. So please feel free to edit your proposal keeping in mind the requirements of a community hub and what its meant to be! I’d look forward to seeing one after the above points are taken into account.

General Update on the Process

  • The RFP is open until the end of August.
  • Shortly after this (early first week of September), we will announce which Community Hub proposals have been accepted and will work with those teams to fine-tune the proposals and hubs to best meet their production requirements.

Thanks!

Hi!

Thank you so much for your patience as we review all the community hub proposals. A quick update: We have extended the deadline to submit a community hub application by one week, to the 7th of September 2024 (AoE time). You can now expect to hear from us about the outcome of your proposal by mid-September.

Thank you again! In the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me.

Hi there,

First of all, we would like to thank you for putting together this proposal!

The space allocated to Community Hubs is limited which means we can only accept a limited number of proposals.

Many of the proposals we received were very high quality and, unfortunately, we had to take hard decisions. There is simply not enough space to accommodate all of them.

With this post, I’d like to inform you that your proposal was not selected for this year’s Community space.

Again, thank you for showing initiative to contribute to the Devcon SEA experience and we hope to see you there soon nonetheless.

Best Regards,

Shyam & The Devcon team
