Ethereum Foundation's Devcon 7 to Elevate Southeast Asia’s Tech Scene

Bangkok, Thailand – Devcon, the Ethereum Foundation’s premier developer and community conference, will take place in Bangkok, Thailand, from November 12-15, 2024. This landmark event will gather developers, innovators, and thought leaders from around the world, with a strong emphasis on Southeast Asia, featuring a high representation of speakers and community leaders from across the region.

A Unique Event at the Intersection of Technology and Society

Unlike traditional crypto events that often focus on markets and trading, Devcon centers around education, community, and the cypherpunk values that underpin decentralized technologies. It's about the future of technology and society, aiming to empower developers, change-makers, students, and researchers to explore how Ethereum can reshape various aspects of our world.

Devcon 7, while hosted in Bangkok, will have a significant impact across the entire Southeast Asian region, known for its high levels of crypto adoption and vibrant developer communities. The event seeks to catalyze innovation and collaboration in decentralized technologies throughout Southeast Asia.

A Regional Gathering with Global Impact

Devcon 7 is expected to attract over 10,000 global attendees to the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC) in Bangkok, with a substantial portion of speakers, developers, and participants coming from Southeast Asia. The event will provide a platform for the region's tech community to showcase its talent and innovation, furthering both regional and global collaboration in decentralized technologies.

Building on Past Success

Following the success of Devcon 6 in Bogotá—which hosted 6,000 attendees, 444 speakers, and featured over 200 hours of programming—Devcon 7 will continue to push the boundaries of both technical and non-technical discussions. The focus will be on the future of Ethereum and broader topics at the intersection of technology, society, and innovation.
