About this congress
Devcon is the Ethereum ecosystem's flagship global conference where the community comes together to learn, build, and shape the future of decentralized systems. It features a mixture of deeply technical content and extensively accessible discussions on Ethereum's protocol, gear, packages, governance, culture, and real-world effect, with programming that includes talks, panels, workshops, and community-driven classes. It serves as an intensive introduction for new Ethereum explorers, a global family reunion for those already a part of the ecosystem, and a source of energy and creativity for all.
