ONTOCHAIN SUMMIT for Trustworthy Internet was a 2-day event focused on the ONTOCHAIN software ecosystem development.

This was an opportunity to engage with the ONTOCHAIN community, that presented key software services, demonstrations and funding opportunities (grants up to €119.5k), and to join an open discussion on specific technological aspects that aim at trustworthy data exchange and knowledge management. Discussion topics included the semantic marketplace, application-level proofs, tokenomics, cross-chain interoperability, oracles, blockchain-based knowledge management.


 

5 Key Takeaways

Learn: Learn what is the ONTOCHAIN software ecosystem for trusted, traceable & transparent ontological knowledge, how it contributes to the Next Generation Internet and how you can participate in its co-creation development.

Apply for grants: Learn how to apply for the ONTOCHAIN 3rd Open Call that offers grants up to €119.5k (equity-free), coaching, access to cutting-edge infrastructure and visibility.

Pitch: We gave innovators the floor to present to the entire audience ideas that could contribute to the ONTOCHAIN software ecosystem.

Network: Meet 100+ internet innovators and industry-defining leaders. A unique opportunity to find partners to apply for the ONTOCHAIN grants.

It was free!: That’s right, entry, coffee breaks and lunches were on us ;)

Ideas Pitch at the ONTOCHAIN Summit

 

At the ONTOCHAIN Summit, participants had the opportunity to present their ideas that could contribute to the ONTOCHAIN software ecosystem.

The ONTOCHAIN core team was especially looking for ideas in the following topics:

  • Technology extensions to the ONTOCHAIN architecture
  • Applications built on top of ONTOCHAIN

Ten ideas were selected. The innovators behind them were given the floor for 5 minutes to present them to the entire audience and get live feedback.
