Cosmoverse 2025: We’re Heading to Split, Croatia.
Cosmos’ Flagship Event is Coming to the Balkans: A Global Developer Powerhouse!
Cosmoverse is returning to Europe in 2025, and this time, we’re heading to Split, Croatia! Discover a stunning coastal city in the Balkans, where history meets innovation and Cosmos connects with new audiences.
Established in 2021, Cosmoverse evolved into the flagship gathering of Cosmos builders, visionaries, and believers in the appchain thesis. As the Web3 space grows, so does our mission as the main ecosystem-run stage for Cosmos:
This year, we’re expanding our reach into a region where Cosmos has yet to establish a strong presence, bringing together the brightest minds from diverse industries and verticals through our Cosmoverse track system. With an even stronger emphasis on the academic, enterprise, and builders tracks, along with our in-house Hackmos hackathon — co-hosted by DoraHacks.
Cosmoverse is the event where the user-owned internet takes shape. Whether you are using the Cosmos Stack to build the next big sovereign app-chain, or powering a Bitcoin layer, launching an AI-driven protocol, or scaling and extending Ethereum… Cosmoverse is your stage and door to the Internet of Blockchains.
Why Split, Croatia?
After Lisbon, Medellín, Istanbul, and Dubai, we knew our next location had to be accessible, exciting, and yet expansive for Cosmos builders. Split and the broader Balkans region check all the boxes:
- Easy & Accessible: Located in the heart of Europe, Split offers easy and affordable access, with most European hubs just a two-hour (or less) flight away.
- A Rising Web3 Hub: The Balkans is emerging as a key region for blockchain innovation, with a fast-growing developer ecosystem, strong government support, and active startup communities. Ethereum, Solana, Near Protocol, Lido, and Chainlink all have strong presences here, alongside key Cosmos contributors.
- EVM Developer Momentum in the Balkans: This year’s event timing aligns with a wave of major Ethereum and EVM developer gatherings in the region, including ETH Prague (May 27–29), ETH Belgrade (June 3–5), ETH Sofia (September 23–25), and with EthCC (June 30–July 3) in nearby Cannes. With so many EVM-focused events happening in the lead-up to Cosmoverse, this presents a unique opportunity to onboard developers into the Cosmos ecosystem. As part of this expansion, we are exploring Cosmos XYZ events in these cities to further bridge the EVM and Cosmos developer communities.
- Stunning Venue with All-Inclusive: Cosmoverse will take place at Le Méridien Lav, a breathtaking seaside conference resort that blends historical charm with modern connectivity, the perfect setting for networking, innovation, and inspiration.
- Exclusive Stay Offer: Once reservations open, Cosmoverse attendees can book their stay directly through our website at a special rate of €105 per night, including a rich breakfast buffet.
Hosting Cosmoverse in the Balkans is a deliberate move to expand into an emerging market, onboard EVM developers, and strengthen Cosmos’ global reach beyond traditional crypto hubs.
What to Expect at Cosmoverse 2025
This year, we’re expecting a diverse audience, including Cosmos and EVM developers, broader Web3 builders, investors, institutions, media, and key industry leaders. Here’s a glimpse of what’s in store.
- App-specific Tracks: Our signature tracks cover key industry verticals, from Bitcoin, interoperability, and AI to DeFi, ZK, RWA, NFTs, modularity, and more.
- Global Community: Builders from Cosmos, Ethereum, Solana, Ripple, Near, and beyond coming together to push Web3 forward.
- High-profile Networking: Private investor lounges, VC roundtables, exclusive side events, and the legendary Cosmoverse afterparty.
- Hackmos & Builders Track: Our premier hackathon and builders track is co-hosted with DoraHacks, providing a hands-on experience with the Cosmos Stack and the latest advancements, time to discover IBC Eureka!
This year’s Cosmoverse is designed with purpose. With new ecosystem leadership in place at the Foundation and Interchain Labs, the focus is on alignment and momentum — ensuring that Cosmos enters its next era stronger than ever.
Cosmoverse is Expanding — And You’re Invited
Cosmoverse has always been about sovereignty and interoperability. Just like IBC connects independent chains, our conference connects minds, ecosystems, and opportunities. This year, In alignment with Interchain Labs’ mission of expanding Cosmos into a natively multi-chain development platform and connecting to new ecosystems through releases like IBC Eureka, we’re opening the doors to all Web3 builders, innovators, and investors: the Internet of Blockchains is here!
As Cosmos continues to lead the charge in redefining Web3, it is only fitting that Cosmoverse stands as a flagship standalone event. Cosmos is not just another crypto ecosystem: it is a foundational pillar of blockchain interoperability. With this level of impact, Cosmos deserves its own global gathering, bringing together the brightest minds to push the space forward.
Join Us in a Split Second!
Cosmoverse 2025 is shaping up to be our homecoming, this is the conference where the ecosystem will come together in preparation for the Cosmos-fication of Web3. Don’t miss your chance to be part of it.
