The Ethereum Developers Conference (EDCON) 2024 will be held from July 26th to 30th at the United Nations University and the Yoyogi National Gymnasium in Shibuya, Tokyo. This month, the Shibuya Creative Technology Committee and EDCON announced their strategic partnership and the establishment of a subcommittee.
The Shibuya Creative Technology Committee and EDCON have established a strategic partnership to better support the EDCON event. They will establish a subcommittee in Tokyo, Japan in May 2024.
As part of this collaboration, the Shibuya Ward Government will strongly support “EDCON 2024” and bring new opportunities to the global arts and technology community through the integration of professional knowledge and innovative planning.
Mr. Katsuro Tabata, Head of the International Strategy Department of the Shibuya Ward Government, expressed enthusiasm and anticipation for this collaboration, stating:
The subcommittee will host a special event called “City Treasure Hunt” in Shibuya in July. The event aims to allow participants to discover the fusion of culture, entertainment, and technology in Shibuya. The treasure hunt will guide participants to explore Shibuya’s iconic landmarks, hidden treasures, and technology hubs, and interact with participants at each location through clues and challenges. Participants will have the opportunity to collect unique digital tokens and exclusive prizes while deepening their understanding of Shibuya’s rich artistic and technological heritage.
This immersive experience will be closely integrated with the broader schedule of “EDCON 2024,” providing a fun and educational way to explore the city.
“EDCON 2024” will emphasize the fundamental principles of decentralization and community collaboration in Ethereum. The conference will take place from July 24th to 30th and will feature a variety of activities at the United Nations University and the Yoyogi National Gymnasium:

As a partner in the Shibuya Entrepreneurship Support, 8ships will provide professional knowledge to the subcommittee, ensuring that the event provides accessible Web3 education for all participants.
