Background
CityDAO has participated at numerous major events in the past such as Permissionless, ETH Denver, DCentral, and more. Participating at these events provides benefits such as; potential recruitment of new contributors, credibility in the ecosystem, IRL meeting points for CityDAO Citizens to get to know each other better, in-person meeting and strategy sessions for Citizens, social media content, and more.
MemeBrains used to have a small event production company from his early entrepreneurial career and produced approx 12 events for the Toronto small-business community ranging from 50ppl - 500ppl in size. He volunteered himself to carry out this initiative for CityDAO and utilized the opportunity to simultaneously commence the creation of a minimum accountability framework for CityDAO event coordinators across the globe.
Here is a draft/working-copy of the event coordination accountability framework for CityDAO which MemeBrains has been working on, please feel free to add your input and help in this creation process before it is posted on Discourse.
