Gateway to Cosmos 2023

About The Event

What is Gateway to Cosmos: After a successful inaugural 2022 2-day event, which attracted 500+ attendees, we are excited to take this gathering to the next level this year. It will be a 3-day event for 1000+ Cosmonauts, showcasing the ecosystem’s leading use cases, technical roadmap developments, and adjacent technologies with the potential to advance the most exciting web3 use cases.

Throughout the conference, well-curated lightning talks will feature project leads delivering quick recaps of their efforts, important milestones approaching, and will leave the group with an understanding of key developments in the pipeline and/or ways they can get involved or use the tech immediately.

Gateway to Cosmos is the one-stop-shop conference for all Cosmos contributors and evangelists. The ever-growing Cosmos community deserves a place to connect, network, and strategize on the path forward for the Internet of Blockchains. The best time to build is now!
