RECAP & Link Hub
On April 11, 2024 Ingonyama hosted ZK Accelerate Athens, a full day of content focused on ZK engineering and product.
ZKAA was sponsored by no fewer than 17 teams focused on ZK innovation and preceded by ZKSummit11, which took place at a nearby venue the previous day. Over 450 people signed up to attend, and our enthusiastic audience was treated to a wide-ranging array of technical talks, panels, discussions, and demonstrations by various teams and builders.
The continuation of our ZKA conference series is a direct result of the success of our inaugural ZK Accelerate event, which was held in Istanbul during Devconnect 2023. Below are links and attributions to each talk, panel and demo, and a breakdown of ZKAA by the numbers.
