The Growth of Cosmovers and the Impact of Sunny
Cosmovers, the largest annual Cosmo's conference, has experienced significant growth over the years. Starting with Cosmovers 1 in Lisbon in 2021, followed by events in Medellin and Istanbul, the conference has expanded its reach globally. Additionally, Cosmovers organizes smaller pop-up versions called ATEMACs in various locations around the world. The mission is to bring the Cosmos ecosystem closer to people and foster connections. One key factor in the growth of Cosmovers was the involvement of Sunny, who encouraged the team to aim higher and provided support. The financial backing from the ICF was also instrumental in hosting larger conferences and accommodating the growing demand. The success of Cosmovers highlights the importance of expanding beyond a meetup and creating a global brand.
The Importance of Local Engagement and Collaboration
Cosmovers recognizes the significance of engaging with local communities in different countries. To achieve this, Cosmovers hosts satellite events called ATEMACs or Z events alongside the main conference. These events aim to bring Cosmos closer to people, facilitating better understanding and accessibility. By collaborating with local influencers and universities, Cosmovers creates opportunities for individuals from diverse backgrounds to learn about and connect with the Cosmos ecosystem. These engagements help bridge the gap between different ecosystems and make Cosmos more approachable for those interested in getting involved. Cosmovers continues to expand its network of satellite events, with plans for more events on different continents.

Media plays a crucial role in the business development strategy of Cosmovers. On one hand, media initiatives ensure journalists cover the events and activities happening in the Cosmos ecosystem, exposing a wider audience to Cosmos-related news.

This includes hosting webinars, creating YouTube content, and sharing content on platforms like Twitter. By making information accessible and engaging with media outlets, Cosmovers aims to raise awareness of Cosmos and keep it on the radar of investors, developers, and entrepreneurs. Media efforts are integral to the success and growth of Cosmovers.
