What is Builders Week Istanbul and who can participate?
Builders Week Istanbul is a nonprofit, week-long program of independent blockchain/Web3 events taking place across Istanbul. It's free and open to developers, researchers, designers, cryptographers, and anyone passionate about Web3.
How are events organized and where can I find them?
Events are independently hosted by various communities, studios, and initiatives at multiple venues throughout Istanbul. The full schedule, venue details, and an interactive city map are available on the Schedule page.
Do I need to register in advance to attend?
Most events are free and open for drop-in attendance. However, limited-capacity workshops and hackathons require a short RSVP form, accessible on each event's detail page.
How can I organize my own event during the week?
