Details of types

Collab

Collaborations W3PN does with other organisations or events

Congress

The Congress is an all-day event, usually followed by an afterparty.

Congress is usually made up of 17-25 slots.

Hackathon

A hackathon is usually a multi-day event focused on creation. What makes it different from other types is that it should end with some work being done, whether it’s some privacy-focused projects or pushing our own projects forward.

A Hackathon is usually accompanied by one or more Meetups, or possibly a Summit.

The number of slots at the hackathon is very flexible.

Meetup

A meetup is a shorter type of event for 2-6 hours (usually afternoon/evening).

The number of slots at a meetup is usually 3-5.

Online events that are hosted and facilitated by W3PN

Privacycorner

Pop-up space inside of major events by partners

Rave

Raves are part of our culture, usually held after W3PN larger events

Summit

The Summit is an all-day event, usually followed by an afterparty.

Summit is usually made up of 10-16 slots.
