Work, Explore, and Connect: Join us in Thailand for a profound co-living experience!

Nov 10th – Nov 30th 2024

ZuGarden is a 3-week immersive Zuzalu-style pop-up village in Thailand by the creators of ZuBerlin. 🌱

We are bridging the gap between focused in-depth research discussions (Ethereum, AI advancement, decentralized governance, public goods funding, etc.) and genuine human connection in a co-created community-atmosphere. You'll explore and expand your comfort zone, as well as relax and get to know fascinating humans on a deep personal level. 💥

Bangkok Devcon Garden ZuGarden

Week One (Nov 10 - 18)

Bangkok at Devcon’s Doorstep

Week #1 of ZuGarden will take place in the heart of Bangkok, close to Devcon. During this time, we’ll offer premium five-star accommodation and a welcoming space reserved exclusively for ZuGardeners to meet fellow participants, co-work, or hold meetings.

With a light program, you’ll have the perfect balance of enjoying Devcon and having a comfortable space to retreat to when needed.

Beach resort ZuGarden Thailand

Weeks Two and Three (Nov 18 - 30)

The Island Experience

After Devcon, the journey continues as we head to a secluded beach resort on a Thai island known for its authenticity and untouched by mass tourism. Here, we’ll dive deeper into talks, workshops, and collaborative sessions, all set against the stunning backdrop of natural beauty and rich Thai culture.

We blend authentic Thai and nature experiences with co-created spaces that foster both intellectual exploration and genuine personal connections. Are you curious to see where this will take you? ✨

Main themes and tracks

Centering around technology and humans at the cutting edge of innovation

Mechanism Design and Incentive Structures

Work on fascinating problems involving complex incentive systems within and outside of blockchains, using methods such as simulations and agent-based modeling

Applied Cryptography and Scalability

Zero Knowledge Cryptography is an emerging paradigm with tons of unexploited potential. Starting from privacy and scalability the range of use cases is constantly expanding

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Agents

AI is already shaping our world and will do so more and more. It has truly disruptive potential and brings up big questions of ownership, control and direction

Governance and Public Good Funding

Technology can aid but not fully solve human coordination. Exploring organizations like DAOs raises questions about efficient resource allocation while minimizing bureaucracy

Immersive Experiences and the Human Aspect

Uniting a curious and creative group of people is immensely valuable, which can be amplified further through emotional depth and special types of exploration unique to ZuGarden

Exploration of Thai and Asian Heritage
