The House of ZK Virtual Conference 1.0, happening on October 15, 2024 and to be streamed over multiple platforms, will bring together a diversity of thought-leaders to collaborate and discuss the future of ZK. In partnership with StarkWare, whose vision, values and commitment to integrity has set the tone for the industry, and ZKM, who exhibit similar qualities in their prioritization of ethics, transparency and fairness, this virtual event aims to uplift the projects and voices that promote the long-term health of the ZK space.

House of ZK stands with a clear and simple purpose: to promote what’s good in ZK. As a not-for-profit initiative, House of ZK is focused on highlighting the projects that are building for the right reasons and on foundations of integrity, transparency, and ethics. They believe that ZK is a pathway to a much more secure, equitable and efficient digital future, and that its transformative principles should be integrated into the very foundation of our digital systems. 

"We’re here to spotlight projects that care about the integrity of the space, the real pioneers pushing the industry forward for the right reasons", said Ben Wynn, a spokesperson for House of ZK. "StarkWare and ZKM embody this ethos perfectly. Their dedication to integrity and transparency in both development and vision for ZK aligns directly with our mission to bring these values into the mainstream consciousness."

“This conference is a call to action - a moment for the ZK community to come together and ask: How can we collectively ensure that our progress remains aligned with principles that benefit the broader community?”

• Keynotes on the Future of ZK by Ventali Tan (Co-Founder of Lita) and Vanishree Rao (Founder of Fermah)
