365 Days of Community Building with EOS Nation!
On April 18th 2018, exactly one year ago today, we organized and hosted our first EOS Nation Meetup in Ottawa, Canada. Since then, we have contributed to 128 different EOS events for an average of one event every 2.8516 days!
When we first announced our candidacy as a Block Producer, EOS Nation committed itself to grow the ecosystem by engaging the community through education. These efforts took many shapes and sizes as we hosted all sorts of meetups, did presentations at universities, gave speeches at conferences and hosted booths at crypto events.
In order to make sure we were building a truly global community, one that reaches beyond the english speaking barriers of Telegram, our CEO Yves La Rose traveled to Asia three times within the last year. With the help of Martin Breuer, our Regional Director of Asia, we were able to host and attend events in China, Korea, Thailand and Indonesia. In the coming year, Martin is looking forward to a digital nomadic lifestyle as he travels across South East Asia, leaving a growing wake of EOS Nation Communities behind him!
In terms of online presence, EOS Nation appeared regularly in online publications like the EOS Radio Show, the EOS Ignite Webcasts, the EOS Town Hall and other YouTube channels.
Of the 128 events we participated in in the last year, 80 of them were hosted and organized by EOS Nation co-founders, staff or Ambassadors. We also contributed to an additional 48 events organized by other members of the EOSIO community.
In this article we would like to share with you some pictures of the 80 events we were able to host all over the world. We could not have reached this kinda of scale without the dedication of our passionate EOS Nation Ambassadors who have donated tremendous amounts of time and energy into teaching their local communities about the EOSIO platform. Brought together by a desire to build a better world, we are transcending old world notions of what it means to be a nation.
And we did all of this in the midst of a bear market. 💪
Getting to know everyone inside of the EOSIO ecosystem this year has truly been a pleasure and we can’t wait to see what the next year of community building will bring!
We hope you enjoy this visual overview of the global EOS Nation community!
