The first edition of The Blockspace, a week-long hacker house and open co-working experience powered by Polkadot, hosted inside a historic downtown Denver mansion.
ETHDenver draws thousands of the world's best Web3 builders, but most side activations are parties, not places to actually build. Polkadot needed a dedicated home for developers during the week somewhere builders could sit down, ship code, get mentorship, and connect with the ecosystem in a meaningful way.
Coordinated end-to-end production of the hacker house across a 7-day run, managing the venue, daily programming schedule, hackathon logistics, ecosystem partner coordination, mentor and speaker sourcing, food and beverage, and on-the-ground operations throughout the week.
A fully activated historic mansion running concurrent programming across two floors. Open co-working and hacking on the ground floor, talks, workshops and panels upstairs, with a private chef, hardware soldering station, daily networking events, and $10K in bounties to keep builders engaged and incentivised throughout the full week.
The Blockspace became the go-to Polkadot home at ETHDenver 2024, establishing a blueprint that was replicated across multiple conferences throughout the year including ETH Global London, Consensus and ETH CC.
