​About the Co-Organizers

​Ethereum Foundation Academic Secretariat
The Academic Secretariat helps build a talent pipeline for the next generation of ecosystem contributors through tailored initiatives such as the "Ethereum University Tour" and "Research-a-thons". These programs span the entire contributor journey — from broad, top-of-funnel engagement to high-touchpoint support that accelerates the growth of high-potential individuals.

​Ethereum Foundation Developer Growth & BuidlGuidl
Developer acceleration starts with education and tooling. We support this through SpeedRunEthereum.com, ScaffoldETH.io, batch onboarding programs and grants program designed to act as a pre-accelerator. Our goal is to place developers into Ethereum companies or help them create projects that attract real users onchain.

​EigenCloud
EigenCloud brings blockchain verification to the real world, enabling developers to build applications, agents, and Autonomous Verifiable Services (AVSs) that can securely verify any input, data, or event. At its core is the EigenLayer protocol built on Ethereum, which introduces Restaking, a new primitive for Web3 builders that provides a “marketplace for trust”. EigenCloud’s newer products, such as EigenCompute and EigenAI, extend this foundation by allowing builders to run any containerized workload (including agents, AI models, services, and data jobs) on CPUs and GPUs, then verify and settle the results on-chain.

​Dev3pack
Dev3pack is the first Web3 fellowship for women+ and student developers transitioning from Web2 to Web3, providing them with essential resources and a strong support system. https://dev3pack.xyz/
