Join us this Summer on 24-25 of July for our 10th
Funding the Commons conference in Tokyo!
Are you a builder, researcher, academic, student, funder, philanthropist or public official deeply interested in the future of public goods funding?
In a program curated by our partners from DeSci Tokyo and Plurality Tokyo, we’ll explore organizations and research projects revitalizing communities and civic infrastructures by defining new forms of support for public goods.
Amidst Japan's environmental and demographic shifts, this conference emerges as a crucial platform for inspiring new strategies in public goods support and presenting a regenerative vision from the cosmopolitan city of Tokyo. Over two days, engage, share, and collaborate to forge paths toward effectively funding and sustaining public goods in our dynamic world.
This event is held in close partnership with DeSci Tokyo at the United Nations University Center in Shibuya, Tokyo. Ethereum EDCON Tokyo begins the day following our conference, allowing for cross-pollination of ideas within a larger international blockchain conversation, as well as the attendance of influential speakers, sponsors, and guests in a hyper-relevant context.
Register now to secure your spot at Funding the Commons Tokyo 2024, and stay tuned as we announce the speaker lineup!
Funding the Commons Tokyo 2024 brings together presentations, panel discussions, and collaborative sessions, welcoming both in-person and virtual participants. It's a chance for builders, protocol developers, academics, and funders to talk, create, and share new ways to fund public goods. Whether you're looking to add your knowledge, learn from the experts, or meet others in the field, this event is where you can help shape the future of public goods funding.
