Greetings Tezos Community,

This past year has seen incredible progress, challenges, and accomplishments for the Tezos Ecosystem. From successfully demonstrating on-chain governance to building an actual use-case for blockchain in the real world (tokenization of assets), Tezos has an extremely bright future ahead. This space is entirely unique and is trailblazing a path that has not been walked on before. Tezos isn’t just a powerful technology but rather an industry with a diverse set of entities, stakeholders, contributors, and builders coordinating together from all parts of the world, operating in an entirely distributed manner. When Tezos Commons was first formed through the early community on Riot, it had one mission — Build a global community dedicated to the digital commonwealth. Our mission has evolved since, not only do we want to build a global community for Tezos but also empower the community to be architects through bootstrapping local community organizers, communications, promotion, education, funding open source initiatives and advocacy.

Looking forward to 2020 and beyond, we will continue to humbly serve the Tezos Community, preserve our grassroots culture, and essentially get shit done. Our intention is to help build Tezos into one of the most prominent technologies in the world and we will work tirelessly for this goal to manifest.

Before looking ahead, let’s reflect on the past and provide a breakdown on the initiatives we worked on in 2019. On Behalf of the entire Tezos Commons organization, Thank you for supporting us and lets make 2020 an even better year!

Global meetups and workshops

We hosted over 70 Tezos events across 32 cities around the globe in 2019. Our goal is to scale these events for 2020 and solidify local chapters in key regions to further strengthen Tezos communities. These events focused on general and technical education of Tezos, workshops, adoption, hackathons, and social gatherings.
