I built out the agenda for the hackathon and Demo day of ETHTaipei mixing in workshops, mentorship, and working with sponsors to deliver on shared goals.
3 days of hacking, workshops, mentors, and a final Demo Day with no sleep for the hackers or organizers. Was such a rewarding experience working with the passionate builders in Taiwan and the amazing team behind ETHTaipei.
- We had 311 registered hackers (Even had to close registration early because of venue capacity).
- >60% of builders came from Taiwan.
- 40+ projects across ZK, wallets, DeFi, social networks, and web2 -> web3 infrastructure.
- Many were Taiwan students from undergrad to PHDs
Demo Day
- 13 teams took to the stage to showcase what they built in 3 days with technical questions from the audience
- For the projects that applied for Demo Day almost 38% were building with ZK 🤯
To everyone else in web3, don't sleep on Taiwan talent.
