## What is the Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC)? The Ethereum Community Conference, or EthCC, is the largest European annual event dedicated to Ethereum, focusing on technology and the community. Organized by Ethereum France, this conference brings together developers, entrepreneurs, and researchers from around the world for four intense days of talks, networking, and learning. ### **Why Organize an Event During ETHCC?** Organizing an event alongside the Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC) offers a unique opportunity to strengthen your presence within the Ethereum community. These side events allow you to build strong connections with key players, share innovative ideas, and promote your projects in a more intimate setting.

Their requirements included an inviting outdoor space and private areas for small meetings. Native Spaces proposed two rooftops that met the client's needs, organizing tours to finalize the choice. The selected venue, just 5 minutes from the Palais, featured a terrace with panoramic views, meeting rooms, and an ideal outdoor space. The event was a success, and the agency is already planning another event with Native Spaces. ### **Forbes: Lunch for Influential CMOs** For its annual event, Forbes needed a venue to host a lunch, awards ceremony, and interviews, while offering air-conditioned spaces to deal with the summer heat. After exploring several options, a large salon in an iconic hotel on the Croisette was selected. This central venue offered sufficient capacity and a prestigious setting for this exclusive event. Forbes received glowing feedback from its guests!
