about

Kerala's premier Ethereum conference & hackathon.

ETHKochi 2026 is Kerala's premier Ethereum conference and hackathon, bringing together developers, founders, researchers, students, creators, and blockchain enthusiasts for two days of learning, collaboration, and meaningful conversations.

Organized by Web3 Kerala, ETHKochi is a community initiative that celebrates the people building the future of Ethereum. It is a place where ideas are shared openly, new connections are formed, and builders come together to solve real problems using decentralized technologies.

The event features keynote sessions, technical talks, panel discussions, workshops, networking opportunities, and an exciting 18 hour hackathon where participants can turn ideas into working projects with guidance from experienced mentors. Whether you are writing your first smart contract or already contributing to the ecosystem, ETH Kochi offers an environment to learn, build, and grow alongside a passionate community.

Throughout the event, attendees will explore topics including Ethereum, decentralized applications, smart contracts, Layer 2 networks, decentralized finance, public goods, privacy, security, open source development, developer tools, and digital identity. Every session is designed to encourage practical learning, thoughtful discussions, and collaboration between builders from different backgrounds.

ETH Kochi is more than a conference. It is a meeting point for the open source community in Kerala and beyond. Our goal is to strengthen the local builder ecosystem by connecting talented individuals with global communities, encouraging collaboration, supporting open innovation, and helping more people contribute to the larger open source and privacy centric ecosystem.

Whether you are a developer, student, entrepreneur, researcher, designer, or simply curious about Ethereum, ETH Kochi is an opportunity to meet inspiring people, exchange ideas, build meaningful projects, and become part of a growing community that is shaping the future of the decentralized web.

Join us for two days of learning, building, and connecting with the Ethereum community.
