About Event

This is an event for new / charter cities and free state builders, techno-utopians and seasteaders, organised by Mark Lutter and Zuzalu

It takes place during the 2-month-long pop-up mini-city near Tivat, Montenegro.

It wasn’t always hard to start a new city, but it’s become a lost art.

Instead of multi-level highways or flying cars, city governance means increasing taxes while lowering service quality.

Startup cities seek to break this stagnation and build platforms for private citizens and businesses to thrive, and unleash a new wave of technological progress.

Naturally, these cities are crypto-native and pro-progress. And they seek out bold new experiments to do governance on chain.

Other business & technology opportunities such as medical tourism, longevity biotech research and energy innovation abound, if unleashed by the right legal and governance guardrails.

Where are new cities and network states headed? We'll discuss this question with the key experts and practitioners in the field.
