Join us for the December DWeb Meetup 12/3 at 5 PM pst
In 2020, what have been your project challenges, milestones & lessons learned?
Even amidst the COVID lockdown, builders of the Decentralized Web have hit new milestones with their projects this year. At our next DWeb Meetup, we will hear from a dozen projects about their breakthroughs, challenges, and roadmaps for the coming year. As with all of our DWeb Meetups, these lightning talks will provide an opportunity for us to learn from others and explore potential partnerships and collaboration. (We ask for less “product pitch” and more sharing important lessons.)
Join us for lightning rounds of 5 minute talks with 2 minutes of Q&A in Zoom. Afterwards we will head to Gather.town for socializing and networking. If you’d like to be one of the 12 presenters, fill out this form.
Please note that we are looking for presentations that give us a broader context of the DWeb ecosystem and will select talks based on the diversity of approaches. But don't worry if your talk isn’t selected, we’ll do this again soon!
Here are some of the 12 Presenters:
Mauve Signweaver, Founder, Agregore
Agregore: Local-First Web Of Everything Agregore is a local-first web browser which aims to simplify application development across different peer-to-peer protocols while staying as minimal and customizable as possible. Twitter: @RangerMauve
Evgeny Ponomarev, Founder, Fluence Labs
Fluence Labs was established in 2017 by 3 founders, Dmitry Kurinskiy, Tom Trowbridge and Evgeny Ponomarev. We started in 2017 and spent a lot of time researching and experimenting with decentralized computing. Just recently, in November 2020 we launched Phase 1 of Fluence: the decentralized computing protocol that allows applications to build on each other, share data and users. We call that an open application platform. The goal of Fluence is to enable the next wave of internet innovation by turning the competition into collaboration. Fluence creates an open alternative to proprietary platforms, enabling developers to build with confidence and be fairly compensated for usage. Twitter: @Fluence_Project
