NERDCONF is not just another tech conference. NERDCONF is a social experience for nerds. We have successfully connected over 5,000 tech enthusiasts across LATAM and organized 6 events. Click here for more information.
We aim to raise $16,895 to host the "SNET Buildathon" at DEVCON. Our goal is to grow the SingularityNET ecosystem and promote Deep Funding by helping developers create MVPs that have the potential to be integrated into SNET. After the event, we will guide teams on turning their MVPs into Deep Funding proposals.
About us: We come from Argentina, a tech hub in LATAM. When we founded NERDCONF, we did so with the intention of giving more nerds the social space we lacked during our own tech careers. As nerds, we are often shy, hesitant to showcase our potential to the world, and we frequently need tools to help others understand our crazy ideas.
Since we embarked on this path, we have brought together countless nerds, traveled, connected with numerous communities, and learned that the strength of a community lies in its ability to share, support, and inspire one another. We love what we do and we are really proud of it.
Because when people get together, magical things happen.
ETH DENVER, DEVCON, TOKEN 2049, you name it: time and time again it has been proven that live events are beneficial for the tech community.
Connecting and celebrating together helps build a strong community. At NERDCONF, we have seen the great value of these in-person events and we are confident in organizing another successful one.
Also, key ecosystem participants, makers, other brands, and other blockchains WILL BE THERE. Devcon will be the epicenter of the most interesting minds, and SNET must also make its mark there.
SNET BUILDATHON: This buildathon aims to develop AI solutions using web3 technologies. Teams will create MVP prototypes to solve real-world problems. Due to the two-day limit, they will focus on making a basic prototype, not the full technology. The best project wins a $1,500 prize.
After the buildathon, we will help teams turn their MVPs into proposals for Deep Funding.
Besides, there will be inspiring talks and workshops about AI and blockchain.
(ps: The speakers and specificals about the workshops and buildathon challenges will be defined immediately after NERDCONF is selected to do the buildathon).
The Buildathon will attract a diverse group of nerds, including:
- Web3 developers
- Product designers
- AI researchers
- Digital artists
- Web2 professionals
There will be an aftermovie and photos of the SNET Buildathon. The team will hire local photographers and videographers to make them.
And… there’s even MORE: NERDCONF will produce a documentary-style video about SingularityNET & Deep Funding, the process of submitting a proposal and making it happen, the buildathon itself and the aftermath. The video will be posted on the founder Ale Marin's Youtube channel (+220k subscribers) after the event is hosted.
In addition to the buildathon activities, our team will also attend DEVCON as SNET ambassadors to perform intensive networking, onboard nerds into the SingularityNET ecosystem, and invite participants to join our event.

We are the right team.
Overall
With the goal of growing the community, encouraging developers to build projects, and strengthening networks among computer scientists, this project focuses not only on inspiring through articles talks and interactive workshops but also supports developers in turning their ideas into concrete funding proposals. The combination of AI and web3 technology in solving real-world problems shows great potential in creating innovative and sustainable solutions. However, some limitations may include the challenge of maintaining long-term community engagement after the event and the ability to convert prototypes into commercial products. To achieve the highest efficiency, the project needs to have a clear plan for post-event support and a mechanism to evaluate and further develop potential projects. In addition, ensuring security and privacy in AI applications is also an important factor that needs to be carefully considered.
Overall
*Project goals:
- The proposal stated the project's goals quite clearly by conducting an offline community building session with the goal of reaching 500 participants with a common passion for research in the field of AI in general. and the SNET ecosystem in general. The proposal highlights the unique features of this project: conversations with experts and key leaders of the SNET ecosystem, construction competition through ideas by being able to present proposals and being able to discuss directly with experts during the interaction process. However, regarding the data and quantification stated in the proposal, the team Need to cite specific evidence such as: 500 participants (how to connect them?, what confirms this stated number?), or topics discussed during the 2 offline sessions , how were specific documents compiled?
* Feasibility and capacity of the team:
- Regarding the team's capacity, the proposal actually does not demonstrate the capacity and role of each team member (what is the current capacity of each member in charge of the role in the project or work plan? As for the feasibility of the project, some information and facts need to be clarified. I think this is the core value of a project: who will be the specific leaders? from where, who are the invited speakers from, what is their industry experience, what is the specific plan for each 2-day operating time frame of the project, but in this element only the author can be seen. It is clear that the preparation work is lacking in the implementation plan. It is necessary to increase activities that have knowledge and collaboration value rather than just entertainment activities that the author mentioned above. in the "event calendar" section. Regarding important project milestones as well as the project budget, it is also necessary to clarify the data in more detail to demonstrate the transparent and objective nature. more important for DF as well as your community to evaluate.
* Calculate the value of the project:
- According to the idea of creating events similar to real summits, it will bring very high value both to the community and to the SNET ecosystem. However, to implement offline projects like this, it is necessary to have preparation work, activity plans, event schedules, universal knowledge plans, and activities that bring value. high value for the community. And it also needs to be organized in a very professional way because this is also a meeting to launch and show whether the SNET ecosystem is a valuable and potential ecosystem or not? The value of this project is relative and does not reflect the professionalism in preparation and the project's budget plan. There is still too much information that needs to be clarified.
Overall
The proposal will attract developers and innovators in the building competition, who aim to position SNET and Deep Funding as key players in the technology ecosystem. This proposal has quite clear goals. However, they should share more clear information about their members. I see that in the project group section, there are many IDs that are still pending.
Hi Tu Nguyen! Thanks for the feedback. Let's onboard the nerds! (L)
About the ID's pending: They looked good before. all team members accepted the invitation but for some bug, now looks like this. We did it how it should be done but we can't control it.
However, in the pitch you can still take a look of the team and whenever the bug is fix, you will be able to see it here again! Thanks!

Overall
Nerd Conf has a long history of awesome initiatives in Latin America. They truly know how to get things done!
This is definitely a big challenge, but I have no doubt they'll nail it perfectly.
Overall
I just want to say that while the initial goal is to onboard 200 enthusiasts to the SingularityNET ecosystem, sustaining their engagement beyond the event is essential. Continuous support, resources, and follow-up initiatives will be crucial to keeping participants actively involved in the platform and interested in future opportunities.
Other than the aforementioned, this project has the potential to significantly enhance awareness, engagement, and participation within the SingularityNET ecosystem, particularly in the East Asia region. By leveraging various outreach channels and hosting an engaging event, this project could onboard a new cohort of enthusiasts and developers to the platform, thereby enriching the community and fostering collaboration and innovation.
Cheers !
Overall
They are inviting nerds to join the SingularityNET ecosystem through a buildathon and mind-blowing talks. By engaging developers and innovators during the buildathon, they aim to position SNET and Deep Funding as key players in the tech ecosystem. After the buildathon, they will help teams turn their MVPs into proposals for Deep Funding. In addition to the buildathon activities, their team will also attend DEVCON as SNET ambassadors to perform intensive networking, onboard nerds into the SingularityNET ecosystem, and invite participants to join their event.
Overall
I highlight the energy and experience of this team, which is essential for any early-stage community. Their direct involvement in organizing similar events globally and their connections with potential marketplace users or developers for SingularityNET are significant assets.
The team has a solid track record, and their personal brands add significant value as promoters of the SingularityNET proposal. Their influence and ability to attract participants can greatly enhance the visibility and engagement of the DeepFunding ecosystem.
Additionally, the budget is well-justified for the scope of the event. It’s clear that the team is committed to the long-term success of this initiative, demonstrating their willingness to work diligently to ensure its success.
Overall
Less is more, the project showcases clarity to promote the SNET and makes the ecosystem healthy and really nerdy
Thanks Emotu! Lets go!! :)
Overall
From a general perspective, hosting a buildathon in East Asia serves to grow the SingularityNet community by attracting developers and enthusiasts to the ecosystem. In addition, by providing a platform for hands-on learning, collaboration, and innovation, the buildathon encourages participants to explore the possibilities of AI technology and its applications. Also, the inclusion of mind-blowing talks enhances the educational aspect of the event, further engaging attendees and fostering knowledge sharing.
Kudos to the team.

Overall
NERDCONF has a professional team that has proven its ability by organizing six events in LATAM.
The proposal also clearly and detailedly outlines the costs required to execute the project with high responsibility and honesty.
I believe that if funded, the proposal will operate smoothly and successfully with entirely feasible and realistic outcomes.
However, I have rated the criteria of Feasibility and Usefulness 4 points with the following reasons:
Overall
I think this is an already-proof way to enlarge tech ecosystems: getting people to know what singularitynet is, the potential and also putting together resources to help them build is a great idea.
I wouldn't brand it as a NERD conference though, as the event could lose potential attendees only because don't feel target. I would choose something related to descentralize AI as is the purpose of the event.
Overall
Absolutely in love with NERDCONF and Ale and Tomi's work. NERDCONF is revolutionizing the Web 3 landscape in LATAM with its incredible energy; The SingualrityNET ecosystem cannot miss the opportunity to fund the incredible Buildathon that Ale and Tomi are designing with so much thought and passion and expanding our Community's horizons to wider audiences. Because, if there's one thing that this proposal is, is a guarantee of reaching out there massive audiences. Ale Marin has several thousand followers on her social media and definitely one of the most talented communicators in LATAM. But this is not just about having thousands of followers; this is a strong, well-built, and highly experienced team. Breakdown budget and milestone design are clear and consistent. This is an amazing opportunity for the SIngularityNET ecosystem to grow, foster, and become one of the biggest and coolest communities of the Web 3 and Web 2 world! Go SNET, Go NERDCONF!
Overall
Answer to AleMarin Repply: Thanks for taking my initicial suggestions into account! Now i see that your event idea is really strong adn you have already think into plan b in risky situations! I now upgrade my overall up to 5 stars!
Viability: 4/5 The proposal is quite viable, with a clear and detailed budget covering all necessary aspects of the event. The team\\\'s previous experience in organizing similar events in LATAM is a strong point that adds credibility. However, the reliance on securing discounts for the event venue and the need for external mentors could pose risks that need solid contingency planning.
Feasibility: 4/5 The technical and logistical feasibility of the event is well-founded. The milestone structure is clear and shows detailed planning. The team has a strong network and experience in event organization, increasing confidence in execution. Additionally, the focus on securing all essential contracts and services from the start is a great advantage.
Desirability: 5/5 The event is not only desirable for the SingularityNET community but also has the potential to attract a wider audience due to its focus on innovation and web3 technology. The production of audiovisual content and social media reach will ensure significant visibility. The team\\\'s enthusiasm and passion for empowering nerds is infectious and adds emotional value to the project.
Usefulness: 3/5 The event\\\'s usefulness is high as it focuses on developing AI solutions using web3 technologies, which aligns with SingularityNET and Deep Funding goals. Creating MVPs and turning them into Deep Funding proposals adds tangible practical value. However, real usefulness will depend on the ability to follow up and continuously support teams post-event. That is a very difficult issue....

Hello Valen!! :) Good to hear your feedback!! Thank you, thank you, thank you
Hope that anwsers your questions!!
Overall
I think the proposal is very good, and I find the enthusiasm of the founders to bring it to reality amazing. It is clear that they have thought it through thoroughly, and their experience in their roles shows.
I believe the analysis of the project by the team members is very well done.
The rest of the project seems excellent to me. I wish them the best and hope they succeed in making it happen because the proposal is fantastic.
Overall
The project team seems quite impressive when publicly announcing a series of key personnel. I understand that the total number of people working together is not only that, it is likely to be even larger. This is a proposal that favors teaching for the community, which is never a bad thing. The team built a proposal that was quite readable and highly effective in its communication. This is to show the desirability and usefulness of the proposal. Of the 4 milestones, milestone number 1 requires the highest budget: $7,800. The team has stated a series of tasks that need to be done, this amount seems reasonable, but in my opinion, if there is a further breakdown by job - along with the amount of money spent for that job, it will be a presentation. Great presentation on how to manage and use a budget.
Thanks TrucTrixie for that feedback! I don't understand the 3 stars tho, because its all good things you are pointing.
As we said on the text, we have tons of expirience on the matter, we've been doing this for 2 years almost. About the budget breakdown: i think its pretty clear about our salaries (and its cheaper than it should be because we really believe in DeepFunding and SNET vision). Organizing an event is a full time job. I sit on the computer 10 hours a day planning and connecting with communities from all over the world to move around the event we do. Its really beautiful seeing the results: a community that loves you and that empower themselves by meeting each other better. We are 5 people working but we are not alone: we have +50 community partners (we will have 200 at the end of the year) that whenever we travel, share the news; and also we have always a person on the place that we are going that helps us organize everything and connects us with people. WE ARE NOT ALONE and the budget is as clear as we can. I dont know if you organize events, but thats the budget breakdown almost entirely.
So I think you can read this comment and maybe review the proposal again. Plus, read the other proposals - almost NON of the others, made a budget breakdown as clear and transparent as we did.
Overall
I welcome this proposal, it is attractive and brings certain benefits to the community. I only recommend that the team should consider presenting more challenges and risks that the team may encounter when implementing the proposal. No proposal is without risks and challenges when implemented (my personal opinion). If the challenging risks are presented in detail, it is a good way to improve the feasibility of the proposal.
Overall
The proposal presents a well-thought-out strategy for bringing geeks into the SingularityNET ecosystem and encouraging their involvement in the creation of AI solutions.
While the idea of a buildathon and using already-existing networks for outreach appears doable, there may be difficulties in forming alliances and carrying out the practicalities.
Although the team has expertise planning events of a similar nature, the budgetary constraints and possible hazards associated with event management may affect the achievement of milestones.
The plan aims to foster community involvement and growth, although it might face obstacles from rivalry with related events and drawing a varied crowd.
By promoting AI development and cultivating relationships within the community, the proposal is in line with the objective of expanding the decentralized AI platform.
Making the most of partnerships and social media to maximize attendance.
Ensuring that logistics, security, and catering meet expectations.
actively involving mentors from Deep Funding and SNET.
Encouraging project submissions and ongoing engagement.
Regularly review expenses to stay within budgetary constraints.
Verify mentor availability and roles prior to the event.
Gather feedback.
Hello Vicklex Ad! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and took into account some of the things you gave us feedback on. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
With a good and useful idea, I understand this proposal has certain promotional value to the community widely. 4 milestones with a series of activities that keep at least 5 members constantly busy? These 5 members all have their names and photos published, only the photo of the last member (JuliNerd) has not been updated. Please update quickly.
So for those who are not passionate about technology, does the team have any plans to awaken their hidden passion?

Hello Joseph! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and took into account some of the things you gave us feedback on. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
Overview
A few things that stood out at the beginning are questions revolving around who the leaders, mentors, and what the workshop topics will be about. One of the main talking points about the proposal is that during NERDCONF there will be a vast array of educational opportunities for participants, however, there is not much (if any) information about them. There are also concerns about who the participants will be. The proposal states that there will be 500 participants, but does not specify where they will be coming from. Is this event a way to get NERDCONF community members to get together, or is it a way to grow the community and bring people from all over different spaces for a shared goal? It just has the feeling that it’s a “party for us” type of thing. Marketing is tough, and using their social platforms is great, but how will they be certain to be able to bring in outside participants?
Another concern is having the event at the same time as Devcon, which just seems like trying to capitalize on another event to get people to attend one more. Would people be too tired to attend another one? Is NERDCONF just trying to poach participants? Are the well-known mentors, leaders, and individuals already booked for Devcon and unavailable for NERDCONF?
The proposal would also benefit from more details about the itinerary and timeline. It’s very bare bones. 8 hours on both days, but how are the workshops and talks broken down, who are the keynote speakers, how much time for building/ receiving feedback from professionals? What will that process be like?
Also, will the project address travel costs for participants? What if someone is on the other side of the planet and wants to go? Just a thought on equity.
Feasibility
Definitely doable. Hosting events and conferences has been done and isn’t incredibly difficult to accomplish. The most difficult aspect would be getting the people to attend/ booking speakers, workshop leaders, and mentors–which is what makes this less feasible than if they were already booked or in talks.
Viability
Same big issues as above. They state that the event will feature a “variety of inspiring talks and technical workshops.”, but fail to list one. Now, they don’t have to be 100% booked with signed contracts, but there could be more information about who or what topics will be presented. That information would allow potential participants the ability to truly consider the benefit of such an event. Also, it seems like an uphill battle competing with another event at the same time.
Desirability
What would make someone choose this event over Devcon that same week? What is the draw/ hook? People can already submit proposals from their home, so why travel to do so?
Usefulness
Unsure how effective the project will be since the goal is to have people submit proposals instead of actually creating things. What if no proposals that were created during the event receive funding? How does submitting proposals add to the ecosystem more than what is already happening now? Participants will create a MVP, but also proposals, so there is some confusion there. Are they going to be creating something that can be used, creating proposals, or both? How realistic is that?
Budget
Based on the budget breakdown, it doesn’t look like much beyond a company vacation. There are no numbers or plans for paying mentors, workshop leaders, or speakers. More detail under each segment would also help understand exactly how the money will be spent. For example: “Merch: price 2, quantity 500” doesn’t explain what kind of merch it will be, the quality of it, etc… The biggest aspect of the proposal is about onboarding, inspiring, and building the community through “mind-blowing talks” but the budget does not reflect that.
Hello ReverseBones! Thanks for the feedback. We just did a more transparent budget breakdown. Right now, you can see the updated proposal! Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
I feel like this is quite a confusing project. The team will organize a Buidathon at the DEVCON event. We can understand it as a Hackathon, but the prize ($1,500) only accounts for less than 8% of the project's total budget. I wonder if this prize level will attract many participants. Instead of a project to organize a Buildathon, I see it more like a project to sponsor travel for the whole team. The focus of the project is the Buildathon, but the proponent does not have a specific description of the rules, scoring criteria, prize distribution, or anything like that. The positive point of the project is that the team owns a YouTube channel with high interaction and the ability to reach many potential participants. The project promises to bring many new participants to the SNET ecosystem
Hello A0kishi! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and did a more transparent budget breakdown. Plus, we explained a little bit more why do we want to do what we want to do and how it'll impact SNET and Deep Funding. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Reviews and Ratings in Deep Funding are structured in 4 categories. This will ensure that the reviewer takes all these perspectives into account in their assessment and it will make it easier to compare different projects on their strengths and weaknesses.
Overall (Primary)
This is an average of the 4 perspectives. At the start of this new process, we are assigning an equal weight to all categories, but over time we might change this and make some categories more important than others in the overall score. (This may even be done retroactively).
Feasibility (secondary)
This represents the user's assessment of whether the proposed project is theoretically possible and if it is deemed feasible. E.g. A proposal for nuclear fission might be theoretically possible, but it doesn’t look very feasible in the context of Deep Funding.
Viability (secondary)
This category is somewhat similar to Feasibility, but it interprets the feasibility against factors such as the size and experience of the team, the budget requested, and the estimated timelines. We could frame this as: “What is your level of confidence that this team will be able to complete this project and its milestones in a reasonable time, and successfully deploy it?”
Examples:
Desirability (secondary)
Even if the project team succeeds in creating a product, there is the question of market fit. Is this a project that fulfills an actual need? Is there a lot of competition already? Are the USPs of the project sufficient to make a difference?
Example:
Usefulness (secondary)
This is a crucial category that aligns with the main goal of the Deep Funding program. The question to be asked here is: “To what extent will this proposal help to grow the Decentralized AI Platform?”
For proposals that develop or utilize an AI service on the platform, the question could be “How many API calls do we expect it to generate” (and how important / high-valued are these calls?).
For a marketing proposal, the question could be “How large and well-aligned is the target audience?” Another question is related to how the budget is spent. Are the funds mainly used for value creation for the platform or on other things?

Overall
With the goal of growing the community, encouraging developers to build projects, and strengthening networks among computer scientists, this project focuses not only on inspiring through articles talks and interactive workshops but also supports developers in turning their ideas into concrete funding proposals. The combination of AI and web3 technology in solving real-world problems shows great potential in creating innovative and sustainable solutions. However, some limitations may include the challenge of maintaining long-term community engagement after the event and the ability to convert prototypes into commercial products. To achieve the highest efficiency, the project needs to have a clear plan for post-event support and a mechanism to evaluate and further develop potential projects. In addition, ensuring security and privacy in AI applications is also an important factor that needs to be carefully considered.
Overall
*Project goals:
- The proposal stated the project's goals quite clearly by conducting an offline community building session with the goal of reaching 500 participants with a common passion for research in the field of AI in general. and the SNET ecosystem in general. The proposal highlights the unique features of this project: conversations with experts and key leaders of the SNET ecosystem, construction competition through ideas by being able to present proposals and being able to discuss directly with experts during the interaction process. However, regarding the data and quantification stated in the proposal, the team Need to cite specific evidence such as: 500 participants (how to connect them?, what confirms this stated number?), or topics discussed during the 2 offline sessions , how were specific documents compiled?
* Feasibility and capacity of the team:
- Regarding the team's capacity, the proposal actually does not demonstrate the capacity and role of each team member (what is the current capacity of each member in charge of the role in the project or work plan? As for the feasibility of the project, some information and facts need to be clarified. I think this is the core value of a project: who will be the specific leaders? from where, who are the invited speakers from, what is their industry experience, what is the specific plan for each 2-day operating time frame of the project, but in this element only the author can be seen. It is clear that the preparation work is lacking in the implementation plan. It is necessary to increase activities that have knowledge and collaboration value rather than just entertainment activities that the author mentioned above. in the "event calendar" section. Regarding important project milestones as well as the project budget, it is also necessary to clarify the data in more detail to demonstrate the transparent and objective nature. more important for DF as well as your community to evaluate.
* Calculate the value of the project:
- According to the idea of creating events similar to real summits, it will bring very high value both to the community and to the SNET ecosystem. However, to implement offline projects like this, it is necessary to have preparation work, activity plans, event schedules, universal knowledge plans, and activities that bring value. high value for the community. And it also needs to be organized in a very professional way because this is also a meeting to launch and show whether the SNET ecosystem is a valuable and potential ecosystem or not? The value of this project is relative and does not reflect the professionalism in preparation and the project's budget plan. There is still too much information that needs to be clarified.
Overall
The proposal will attract developers and innovators in the building competition, who aim to position SNET and Deep Funding as key players in the technology ecosystem. This proposal has quite clear goals. However, they should share more clear information about their members. I see that in the project group section, there are many IDs that are still pending.
Hi Tu Nguyen! Thanks for the feedback. Let's onboard the nerds! (L)
About the ID's pending: They looked good before. all team members accepted the invitation but for some bug, now looks like this. We did it how it should be done but we can't control it.
However, in the pitch you can still take a look of the team and whenever the bug is fix, you will be able to see it here again! Thanks!
Overall
I love the energy of this project, and I see its potential. Its coverage is really engaging. Way to go! I love nerds 🤗

Well well welll, the proposal has a long term vision, I think it's great because it connects with more people who want to build! I already feel part of that nerd community, what a great way to communicate, and I have no doubt that they will get all those Devs and generate more engagement for people who want to learn about Singularity. They are very professional and know what they are talking about.
I leave you my proposal of Holograms with AI, aims to create a holographic virtual assistant for diverse applications like customer service, emotional support, advertising, and entertainment.

Overall
Nerd Conf has a long history of awesome initiatives in Latin America. They truly know how to get things done!
This is definitely a big challenge, but I have no doubt they'll nail it perfectly.
Overall
I just want to say that while the initial goal is to onboard 200 enthusiasts to the SingularityNET ecosystem, sustaining their engagement beyond the event is essential. Continuous support, resources, and follow-up initiatives will be crucial to keeping participants actively involved in the platform and interested in future opportunities.
Other than the aforementioned, this project has the potential to significantly enhance awareness, engagement, and participation within the SingularityNET ecosystem, particularly in the East Asia region. By leveraging various outreach channels and hosting an engaging event, this project could onboard a new cohort of enthusiasts and developers to the platform, thereby enriching the community and fostering collaboration and innovation.
Cheers !
Overall
They are inviting nerds to join the SingularityNET ecosystem through a buildathon and mind-blowing talks. By engaging developers and innovators during the buildathon, they aim to position SNET and Deep Funding as key players in the tech ecosystem. After the buildathon, they will help teams turn their MVPs into proposals for Deep Funding. In addition to the buildathon activities, their team will also attend DEVCON as SNET ambassadors to perform intensive networking, onboard nerds into the SingularityNET ecosystem, and invite participants to join their event.
Overall
I highlight the energy and experience of this team, which is essential for any early-stage community. Their direct involvement in organizing similar events globally and their connections with potential marketplace users or developers for SingularityNET are significant assets.
The team has a solid track record, and their personal brands add significant value as promoters of the SingularityNET proposal. Their influence and ability to attract participants can greatly enhance the visibility and engagement of the DeepFunding ecosystem.
Additionally, the budget is well-justified for the scope of the event. It’s clear that the team is committed to the long-term success of this initiative, demonstrating their willingness to work diligently to ensure its success.
Overall
Less is more, the project showcases clarity to promote the SNET and makes the ecosystem healthy and really nerdy
Thanks Emotu! Lets go!! :)
Overall
From a general perspective, hosting a buildathon in East Asia serves to grow the SingularityNet community by attracting developers and enthusiasts to the ecosystem. In addition, by providing a platform for hands-on learning, collaboration, and innovation, the buildathon encourages participants to explore the possibilities of AI technology and its applications. Also, the inclusion of mind-blowing talks enhances the educational aspect of the event, further engaging attendees and fostering knowledge sharing.
Kudos to the team.

Overall
NERDCONF has a professional team that has proven its ability by organizing six events in LATAM.
The proposal also clearly and detailedly outlines the costs required to execute the project with high responsibility and honesty.
I believe that if funded, the proposal will operate smoothly and successfully with entirely feasible and realistic outcomes.
However, I have rated the criteria of Feasibility and Usefulness 4 points with the following reasons:
Overall
I think this is an already-proof way to enlarge tech ecosystems: getting people to know what singularitynet is, the potential and also putting together resources to help them build is a great idea.
I wouldn't brand it as a NERD conference though, as the event could lose potential attendees only because don't feel target. I would choose something related to descentralize AI as is the purpose of the event.
Overall
Absolutely in love with NERDCONF and Ale and Tomi's work. NERDCONF is revolutionizing the Web 3 landscape in LATAM with its incredible energy; The SingualrityNET ecosystem cannot miss the opportunity to fund the incredible Buildathon that Ale and Tomi are designing with so much thought and passion and expanding our Community's horizons to wider audiences. Because, if there's one thing that this proposal is, is a guarantee of reaching out there massive audiences. Ale Marin has several thousand followers on her social media and definitely one of the most talented communicators in LATAM. But this is not just about having thousands of followers; this is a strong, well-built, and highly experienced team. Breakdown budget and milestone design are clear and consistent. This is an amazing opportunity for the SIngularityNET ecosystem to grow, foster, and become one of the biggest and coolest communities of the Web 3 and Web 2 world! Go SNET, Go NERDCONF!
Overall
Answer to AleMarin Repply: Thanks for taking my initicial suggestions into account! Now i see that your event idea is really strong adn you have already think into plan b in risky situations! I now upgrade my overall up to 5 stars!
Viability: 4/5 The proposal is quite viable, with a clear and detailed budget covering all necessary aspects of the event. The team\\\'s previous experience in organizing similar events in LATAM is a strong point that adds credibility. However, the reliance on securing discounts for the event venue and the need for external mentors could pose risks that need solid contingency planning.
Feasibility: 4/5 The technical and logistical feasibility of the event is well-founded. The milestone structure is clear and shows detailed planning. The team has a strong network and experience in event organization, increasing confidence in execution. Additionally, the focus on securing all essential contracts and services from the start is a great advantage.
Desirability: 5/5 The event is not only desirable for the SingularityNET community but also has the potential to attract a wider audience due to its focus on innovation and web3 technology. The production of audiovisual content and social media reach will ensure significant visibility. The team\\\'s enthusiasm and passion for empowering nerds is infectious and adds emotional value to the project.
Usefulness: 3/5 The event\\\'s usefulness is high as it focuses on developing AI solutions using web3 technologies, which aligns with SingularityNET and Deep Funding goals. Creating MVPs and turning them into Deep Funding proposals adds tangible practical value. However, real usefulness will depend on the ability to follow up and continuously support teams post-event. That is a very difficult issue....

Hello Valen!! :) Good to hear your feedback!! Thank you, thank you, thank you
Hope that anwsers your questions!!
Overall
I think the proposal is very good, and I find the enthusiasm of the founders to bring it to reality amazing. It is clear that they have thought it through thoroughly, and their experience in their roles shows.
I believe the analysis of the project by the team members is very well done.
The rest of the project seems excellent to me. I wish them the best and hope they succeed in making it happen because the proposal is fantastic.
Overall
The project team seems quite impressive when publicly announcing a series of key personnel. I understand that the total number of people working together is not only that, it is likely to be even larger. This is a proposal that favors teaching for the community, which is never a bad thing. The team built a proposal that was quite readable and highly effective in its communication. This is to show the desirability and usefulness of the proposal. Of the 4 milestones, milestone number 1 requires the highest budget: $7,800. The team has stated a series of tasks that need to be done, this amount seems reasonable, but in my opinion, if there is a further breakdown by job - along with the amount of money spent for that job, it will be a presentation. Great presentation on how to manage and use a budget.
Thanks TrucTrixie for that feedback! I don't understand the 3 stars tho, because its all good things you are pointing.
As we said on the text, we have tons of expirience on the matter, we've been doing this for 2 years almost. About the budget breakdown: i think its pretty clear about our salaries (and its cheaper than it should be because we really believe in DeepFunding and SNET vision). Organizing an event is a full time job. I sit on the computer 10 hours a day planning and connecting with communities from all over the world to move around the event we do. Its really beautiful seeing the results: a community that loves you and that empower themselves by meeting each other better. We are 5 people working but we are not alone: we have +50 community partners (we will have 200 at the end of the year) that whenever we travel, share the news; and also we have always a person on the place that we are going that helps us organize everything and connects us with people. WE ARE NOT ALONE and the budget is as clear as we can. I dont know if you organize events, but thats the budget breakdown almost entirely.
So I think you can read this comment and maybe review the proposal again. Plus, read the other proposals - almost NON of the others, made a budget breakdown as clear and transparent as we did.
Overall
I welcome this proposal, it is attractive and brings certain benefits to the community. I only recommend that the team should consider presenting more challenges and risks that the team may encounter when implementing the proposal. No proposal is without risks and challenges when implemented (my personal opinion). If the challenging risks are presented in detail, it is a good way to improve the feasibility of the proposal.
Overall
The proposal presents a well-thought-out strategy for bringing geeks into the SingularityNET ecosystem and encouraging their involvement in the creation of AI solutions.
While the idea of a buildathon and using already-existing networks for outreach appears doable, there may be difficulties in forming alliances and carrying out the practicalities.
Although the team has expertise planning events of a similar nature, the budgetary constraints and possible hazards associated with event management may affect the achievement of milestones.
The plan aims to foster community involvement and growth, although it might face obstacles from rivalry with related events and drawing a varied crowd.
By promoting AI development and cultivating relationships within the community, the proposal is in line with the objective of expanding the decentralized AI platform.
Making the most of partnerships and social media to maximize attendance.
Ensuring that logistics, security, and catering meet expectations.
actively involving mentors from Deep Funding and SNET.
Encouraging project submissions and ongoing engagement.
Regularly review expenses to stay within budgetary constraints.
Verify mentor availability and roles prior to the event.
Gather feedback.
Hello Vicklex Ad! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and took into account some of the things you gave us feedback on. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
With a good and useful idea, I understand this proposal has certain promotional value to the community widely. 4 milestones with a series of activities that keep at least 5 members constantly busy? These 5 members all have their names and photos published, only the photo of the last member (JuliNerd) has not been updated. Please update quickly.
So for those who are not passionate about technology, does the team have any plans to awaken their hidden passion?

Hello Joseph! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and took into account some of the things you gave us feedback on. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
Overview
A few things that stood out at the beginning are questions revolving around who the leaders, mentors, and what the workshop topics will be about. One of the main talking points about the proposal is that during NERDCONF there will be a vast array of educational opportunities for participants, however, there is not much (if any) information about them. There are also concerns about who the participants will be. The proposal states that there will be 500 participants, but does not specify where they will be coming from. Is this event a way to get NERDCONF community members to get together, or is it a way to grow the community and bring people from all over different spaces for a shared goal? It just has the feeling that it’s a “party for us” type of thing. Marketing is tough, and using their social platforms is great, but how will they be certain to be able to bring in outside participants?
Another concern is having the event at the same time as Devcon, which just seems like trying to capitalize on another event to get people to attend one more. Would people be too tired to attend another one? Is NERDCONF just trying to poach participants? Are the well-known mentors, leaders, and individuals already booked for Devcon and unavailable for NERDCONF?
The proposal would also benefit from more details about the itinerary and timeline. It’s very bare bones. 8 hours on both days, but how are the workshops and talks broken down, who are the keynote speakers, how much time for building/ receiving feedback from professionals? What will that process be like?
Also, will the project address travel costs for participants? What if someone is on the other side of the planet and wants to go? Just a thought on equity.
Feasibility
Definitely doable. Hosting events and conferences has been done and isn’t incredibly difficult to accomplish. The most difficult aspect would be getting the people to attend/ booking speakers, workshop leaders, and mentors–which is what makes this less feasible than if they were already booked or in talks.
Viability
Same big issues as above. They state that the event will feature a “variety of inspiring talks and technical workshops.”, but fail to list one. Now, they don’t have to be 100% booked with signed contracts, but there could be more information about who or what topics will be presented. That information would allow potential participants the ability to truly consider the benefit of such an event. Also, it seems like an uphill battle competing with another event at the same time.
Desirability
What would make someone choose this event over Devcon that same week? What is the draw/ hook? People can already submit proposals from their home, so why travel to do so?
Usefulness
Unsure how effective the project will be since the goal is to have people submit proposals instead of actually creating things. What if no proposals that were created during the event receive funding? How does submitting proposals add to the ecosystem more than what is already happening now? Participants will create a MVP, but also proposals, so there is some confusion there. Are they going to be creating something that can be used, creating proposals, or both? How realistic is that?
Budget
Based on the budget breakdown, it doesn’t look like much beyond a company vacation. There are no numbers or plans for paying mentors, workshop leaders, or speakers. More detail under each segment would also help understand exactly how the money will be spent. For example: “Merch: price 2, quantity 500” doesn’t explain what kind of merch it will be, the quality of it, etc… The biggest aspect of the proposal is about onboarding, inspiring, and building the community through “mind-blowing talks” but the budget does not reflect that.
Hello ReverseBones! Thanks for the feedback. We just did a more transparent budget breakdown. Right now, you can see the updated proposal! Thanks again, let's keep building!
Overall
I feel like this is quite a confusing project. The team will organize a Buidathon at the DEVCON event. We can understand it as a Hackathon, but the prize ($1,500) only accounts for less than 8% of the project's total budget. I wonder if this prize level will attract many participants. Instead of a project to organize a Buildathon, I see it more like a project to sponsor travel for the whole team. The focus of the project is the Buildathon, but the proponent does not have a specific description of the rules, scoring criteria, prize distribution, or anything like that. The positive point of the project is that the team owns a YouTube channel with high interaction and the ability to reach many potential participants. The project promises to bring many new participants to the SNET ecosystem
Hello A0kishi! Thanks for the feedback. We just updated the proposal and did a more transparent budget breakdown. Plus, we explained a little bit more why do we want to do what we want to do and how it'll impact SNET and Deep Funding. Thanks again, let's keep building!
Reviews and Ratings in Deep Funding are structured in 4 categories. This will ensure that the reviewer takes all these perspectives into account in their assessment and it will make it easier to compare different projects on their strengths and weaknesses.
Overall (Primary)
This is an average of the 4 perspectives. At the start of this new process, we are assigning an equal weight to all categories, but over time we might change this and make some categories more important than others in the overall score. (This may even be done retroactively).
Feasibility (secondary)
This represents the user's assessment of whether the proposed project is theoretically possible and if it is deemed feasible. E.g. A proposal for nuclear fission might be theoretically possible, but it doesn’t look very feasible in the context of Deep Funding.
Viability (secondary)
This category is somewhat similar to Feasibility, but it interprets the feasibility against factors such as the size and experience of the team, the budget requested, and the estimated timelines. We could frame this as: “What is your level of confidence that this team will be able to complete this project and its milestones in a reasonable time, and successfully deploy it?”
Examples:
Desirability (secondary)
Even if the project team succeeds in creating a product, there is the question of market fit. Is this a project that fulfills an actual need? Is there a lot of competition already? Are the USPs of the project sufficient to make a difference?
Example:
Usefulness (secondary)
This is a crucial category that aligns with the main goal of the Deep Funding program. The question to be asked here is: “To what extent will this proposal help to grow the Decentralized AI Platform?”
For proposals that develop or utilize an AI service on the platform, the question could be “How many API calls do we expect it to generate” (and how important / high-valued are these calls?).
For a marketing proposal, the question could be “How large and well-aligned is the target audience?” Another question is related to how the budget is spent. Are the funds mainly used for value creation for the platform or on other things?

Its a total beauty seeing how this project aligns with Deepfunding and Snet at the same time. Elements like teaching the nerds on how to propose on deep funding and how to launch their proposal on the sent platform makes it an absolute fit for deepfunding, great work team
