Polkadot Decoded is the Flagship conference and the biggest yearly event focused on all things Polkadot, it was back for its fourth edition on June 28th and 29th, 2023, with a fully hybrid experience of online and in-person events. Polkadot Decoded aimed this year to evolve into a general assembly for all things Polkadot/Kusama.

In 2023 the Polkadot community came together in Copenhagen, Denmark with an increased capacity and satellite events hosted regionally in the USA, Europe, LatAm and China in July. These satellite events aimed to be regionally focused. Whereas the Flagship event was globally focused.

The program line up featured presentations, panels, workshops, demos, fireside and barcamp chats. The focus was on curating content that is more high-level for a broader audience as well as attracting decision makers and enterprises into the room. The target audience crossed over all six of our target personas: Business Decision Maker, Technical Decision Maker, both from startups and Enterprises interested in Polkadot, Builders from teams in the Polkadot ecosystem, the Polkadot community, Developers, Polkadot enthusiasts and supporters.

Since the Event Bounty limits applications to amounts at around USD150’000, it was decided to post the proposal here.

This is the post-event report and the last tranche request. All costs submitted for this last tranche were backstopped by the Web 3.0 Technologies Foundation.
