Announcing Partners for the 2023 DAO Global Hackathon

We’re excited to announce our first wave of partners for the DAO global hackathon this April!

The last few years we’ve seen tons of new DAO tools and coordination primitives emerge, but organizations are having difficulty integrating them. This hackathon will focus on applying the “Legos thesis” that enabled DeFi to DAOs. We will focus on existing tools and how we can integrate them to power the organizations of the future.

The hackathon will run for 4 weeks and be hosted on a dedicated hackathon platform including hacker profiles, matchmaking, bounty proposals, and active support.

We are still open to partners, so get in touch with Ryan, our Events Manager, at ryan@aragon.org!
