Monero Konferenco (“MoneroKon”) is an annual meeting of privacy advocates, cypherpunks, scientists, and philosophers and is designed to disseminate scientific and technical results in privacy and financial technologies like censorship-resistant digital cash. It was first held in [Denver, Colorado]( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBkJHJg_l2uDgbicDJ1PmAVW) in 2019 and after a hiatus due to COVID-19, the event was rebooted in [Lisbon, Portugal]( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsSYUeVwrHBndRQoQ-vLezzlHPLRDNzaw) this past summer. The [2019 event had 73 attendees and 27 speakers]( https://github.com/b-g-goodell/mrl-skunkworks-mirror/blob/master/Konferenco/2019/postmorto.md#1-budget-actuals) and in 2022, there were a total of 160 attendees and 40 speakers, having [sold out in less than 6 weeks]( https://nitter.net/MoneroKon/status/1528247373398515712).
In a [MoneroKon 2023 Planning Meeting that was held on November 12th 2022](https://monero.observer/assets/logs/221112-monerokon23.log), meeting participants unanimously agreed to try to hold the event again next summer at [La Fabrika](https://www.lafabrika.cz/en/lafabrika) in Prague, Czech Republic on 23rd-25th June 2023. If the target funding goal is not met in 90 days from the date this proposal is merged, we would fall back to holding the event at [University of Neuchâtel]( https://www.unine.ch/batiments/home/prestations/location-de-laula-des-jeunes-riv.html) in Switzerland on 30th June - 2nd July 2023. Details for the Neuchâtel option can be found [here](https://github.com/MoneroKon/meta/blob/main/monerokon2023-plan-b.md). However, if the raised funds are not enough to cover the expenses of Neuchâtel, the funds would roll over to the budget of MoneroKon 2024.

Unlike the previous event that relied heavily on volunteers, a professional team will be hired as part of the contract with La Fabrika, which includes an event project manager, sound, lighting, and video engineers, clean-up crew, and cloakroom attendants. La Fabrika will provide all required furniture (long and bistro tables, chairs), 5x10m stage, projector, screen, sound, and lighting equipment. We will separately hire an independent camera operator and several other freelancers to perform various administrative and design duties.
