Paris 2023
In-person / July 15-16
Taipei is known as the land of digital democracy. Located in the center of Asia, Taipei presents itself with traditional sceneries. It is also home to g0v, the civic tech community that plays a significant role in Taiwan’s digital democracy movement. Funding the Commons is working with da0, the web3 branch under g0v, to create a one-and-only experience focused on public goods discussions.
During December 2023, Taipei becomes the global headquarters of the blockchain industry for one week, as it hosts Taipei Blockchain Week, the rising conference series that focuses on connecting Taiwan with the global community.
As we set foot in Taipei, we will see an inspiring and innovative yet cultural environment that incubated strong public infrastructure and creates a brand new dynamic for the 8th installment of Funding the Commons.

This intensive in-person program will take place in the vibrant city of Berlin from 1-30 September 2023, and will focus on public goods funding infrastructure, impact evaluators, impact certification systems, and other elements of the public goods funding stack. Both Web2 and Web3 projects and builders are eligible and encouraged to participate in this transformative event.
The residency embodies our mission to foster the development of a sustainable decentralized funding ecosystem for public goods.

Let's Fund Your Next Project
Artizen and Funding the Commons have partnered to launch a 10 ETH Match Fund to support projects that promote, celebrate, and develop public goods in diverse fields such as art, science, technology, and startups. We seek visionary proposals that demonstrate a commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation in the public goods sphere.
Istanbul 2023
d:pact is a day summit at the heart of Istanbul during DevConnect, 15th of November, which covers Media, Impact and Regenerative Movements. The summit is co-organized by Merkezsiz, a dynamic web3 media organization in Turkey, and Paribu Hub, the ecosystem hub of cryptocurrency exchange Paribu. It's an immersive experience that goes beyond technical jargon, diving deep into complex technical concepts from a non-technical perspective. Funding the Commons joins d:pact and Regens Unite as a content partner, adding another layer and depth to the discussions.
This bustling metropolis is the perfect setting for a conference that delves into the realms of Media, Impact and Regenerative Movements. Its rich history, cultural diversity, and strategic location make it an ideal host for a gathering of forward-thinkers and changemakers. Istanbul's unique position as a bridge between continents symbolizes the very essence of d:pact - bridging gaps and connecting people. It's a melting pot of ideas, cultures, and perspectives, serving as a catalyst for stimulating discussions and forging meaningful connections. Istanbul's vibrant atmosphere fosters an environment where innovative approaches can thrive and drive positive change in our interconnected world.
At its core, the purpose of the d:pact summit is to explore pressing questions that define our rapidly evolving world. How does the media influence society? How can we enhance public goods? How can regenerative movements promote sustainability? How does governance shape communities? How does culture impact our identities? These questions serve as our compass, guiding us through fresh talks, workshops, and discussions.
In the heart of Istanbul, we invite you to embark on a journey of exploration. Together, we'll intensify our efforts to understand and harness the power of Web3's connectivity. It's not just a conference; it's a platform for collective sense-building and a celebration of the transformative potential that lies within our interconnected world.
