Supporters Program
Why teams supported
Devcon 8 India
Be present, not just listed
Supporter teams were part of the event. They were in the space, engaging with attendees, and recognized as the projects that made Devcon possible.
Community of shared principles
Supporters joined people who care about the same things they do; open systems, privacy, and the long-term health of shared infrastructure.
Put your principles into practice
Devcon exists to serve the ecosystem, not extract from it. Supporting was a way to put resources behind the things the community actually cares about.
PAST SUPPORTERS
What is the Supporters Program?
The Supporters Program is how ecosystem projects contributed to Devcon 8 and participated in it.
Supporter teams were part of the event – present in the space, visible to the community, and recognized alongside the projects that make Devcon possible. Instead of a traditional sponsorship, it was an opportunity to give back to the ecosystem and be part of the conference.
Who participated?
Projects building on or for Ethereum that share the principles outlined in the EF Mandate.
For Devcon 8 we prioritized projects aligned with CROPS – Censorship Resistance, Open Source, Privacy, and Security.
OTHER SUPPORT
Impact Program
Free and open source. Public goods. Non-profits.
Some of the most important work doesn't have a budget – across Ethereum and beyond. Impact Booths were free booth spaces reserved for these teams. The Impact Program offered two ways to participate:
- Impact Booth: A free physical booth space at Devcon 8 for FOSS projects and non-profits contributing to Ethereum's public infrastructure.
- Impact Tier: Digital presence on Devcon's platforms and a set of tickets to attend, for aligned entities.
OUR PRINCIPLES
