Interopolis

​Interopolis is a community onsite for the Interop community to connect and complete things IRL.

​No talks, no panels. Just pure collaboration. Think whiteboard sessions, fishbowl discussions and co-hacking.

​

​Whiteboarding Sessions

​Each session will last 5 hours and run by two facilitators.

​Resource Locks

• ​Facilitated by Stephane (OneBalance) and Bo (Polymer Labs)

​Shared Bridges

• ​Facilitated by Nam (Hyperlane) and Layne (Everclear)

​Solver Economics

• ​Facilitated by Greg (Sprinter) and Jim (LI.FI)

​Crosschain Composability

• ​Facilitated by Orest (t1protocol) and Ellie (Espresso Labs)

​

​Goals

• ​Workshop current problems/solutions in Interop.

• ​Motivate researchers and builders to reach milestones together by the last day of the event, and present to the community during a community call.

• ​A space where everyone has an equal voice to contribute.

​Why Athens?

• ​We want somewhere distraction free, away from any “____ week” so we can really focus on our goals

• ​We want to support and help build grassroots communities in places that need it vs the same old locations

• ​Athens is quite close to the ETH conferences circuit around Europe at that time.

• ​Where better than the birthplace and hub of philosophy, democracy, and open discourse, this city felt like a natural fit for collaboration—the essential ingredient for solving interoperability challenges in our industry. Athens also has a history of anarchy and resistance to centralized control, offering a raw, real-world parallel to the challenges and ideals of our tech. Let’s not even mention the amazing weather, food and vibes (and freddo espressos).
