Taipei is known as the land of digital democracy. Located in the center of Asia, Taipei presents itself with traditional sceneries. It is also home to g0v, the civic tech community that plays a significant role in Taiwan’s digital democracy movement. Funding the Commons collaborated with da0, the web3 branch under g0v, to create a unique experience focused on public goods funding. During December 2023, Taipei became the global headquarters of the blockchain industry for one week, hosting the Taipei Blockchain Week, a rising conference series that focuses on connecting Taiwan with the global blockchain community. Taipei is an innovative yet cultural environment that has incubated strong public infrastructure and created a brand new dynamic for the 8th installment of Funding the Commons.
