Blu3 LATAM DAO was founded after ETH RIO, when previous scholars and contributors, experienced the need to onboard more latin women into the web3 ecosystem. Blu3 LATAM was born under Blu3 DAO’s umbrella and aims to continue with its mission to empower women, non-binary and trans people to learn, explore and build their careers in the web3 space to achieve financial freedom, working with the Latin American community in Spanish.
We are glad to share that after 6 months of zoom calls and hard work behind the scenes, Blu3 LATAM arrived at ETH MEXICO bringing 16 scholars and 9 Blu3 core team MX members, prioritizing local women and non-binary as scholars but also bringing some more scholars from all over the globe.
This was the first time Blu3 LATAM hosted a Women Hacker House for our scholars and created a unique experience. From August 17th - 22th, the scholars had the opportunity to connect and learn:
We hacked with 6 teams who had lots of fun attending side events, parties and even learning how to dance salsa. We are very grateful to our sponsor Polygon to make this possible! Also a big shoutout to our sponsor Superfluid for the amazing t-shirts we rocked at the pitch presentation.
“I have worked in many industries, always with this feeling of inferiority; I have never felt so safe, respected, supported, and admired by men. Web3 means being in a safe place with many growth opportunities for women”. - Karla Revilla Blu3 Dao Scholar
We had a Mexican dinner to welcome hackers, make introductions between the core team and hackers, having the opportunity to get to know each other, share our goals and expectations for the week.
