Devcon 8 India Supporter Applications Are Now Open

Supporter applications are now open for organizations that want to help bring Devcon 8 India to life in Mumbai.

Every Devcon has its own energy. Some of it happens on stage, but much of it happens in the hallways, over coffee, in coworking rooms, at community hubs, outside the venue, and in the conversations that continue long after the day’s programming ends.

That is what makes Devcon different. It is not just a conference where Ethereum is discussed. It is where the people building the future of Ethereum come together to learn from each other, challenge each other, and move the ecosystem forward.

From November 3–6, 2026, Devcon 8 India will bring developers, researchers, protocol teams, founders, public goods contributors, organizers, educators, artists, and open-source communities to Mumbai for four days of technical depth, collaboration, and connection.

Why Supporters Matter

Devcon is shaped by the people who show up, and Supporters help create the environment that makes that possible.

For organizations building in this ecosystem, Devcon is a rare opportunity to be present where the work is happening. Supporters contribute to the spaces, infrastructure, and shared environments where thousands of people find each other, exchange ideas, and build momentum together.

Supporters can apply for booth opportunities across three tiers: Flagship, Core, and Starter. Each tier includes different levels of presence, visibility, and event access, with options for two-day or four-day participation.

Early Bird pricing is available through June 15, with limited availability across each tier.

Why Mumbai?

Devcon 8 India takes place at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai, one of Asia’s leading convention and exhibition centers.

India is not just a place where Ethereum is used. It is one of the places where Ethereum is built. The country is home to one of the world’s largest developer ecosystems, strong grassroots Ethereum communities, and growing participation across crypto, open-source, fintech, AI, and adjacent technology sectors.

For Supporters, Devcon 8 is an opportunity to connect with Indian developers, local communities, and global teams working across open, decentralized systems.

Who Is the Supporters Program For?

The Supporters Program is designed for organizations building on and for Ethereum, including funded protocols, L2s, infrastructure teams, client teams, wallets, developer tooling companies, DeFi protocols, identity systems, security teams, grants programs, DAOs, public goods projects, and ecosystem contributors.

It is also relevant for adjacent communities working toward open, decentralized systems, including free and open-source software communities, digital rights organizations, open science and academic research groups, open hardware teams, decentralized communications projects, and regenerative technology initiatives.

The common thread is alignment with Devcon’s purpose: educating and empowering the community to build and use decentralized systems.

How the Program Works

For Devcon 8 India, the Supporters Program will operate on a rotation model. Each booth can run for four days, with the option to choose a two-day presence.

Applications will be reviewed to ensure alignment with Devcon’s principles and the broader goals of the event.
