ZuForever aims to attend and use the pop-up city to both build an accommodation offering, and to expand the V2 that we aim to build during EthCC\n\nWe aim to rent a condo with 4 to 5 apartments for roughly 3000 USD. The apartment will allow 3 members of the community to stay with Xenofon, at roughly 750 USD per person for the whole month. The operational capital needed will return to the treasury, besides the associated costs for the executive member who will be attending Crecimiento. \nAleph is also where we aim to expand on the prototypes we have built in other events (namely the muBuenos and EthCC) \nRelevant Links: \nHighlighted AirBnb:\nhttps://www.airbnb.com/rooms/564380621924340011?check_in=2024-08-04&check_out=2024-09-01&guests=1&adults=4&s=67&unique_share_id=7413d09c-1956-4582-9e2c-917802efb401 \nAssociated Costs:\nAccommodation Capital: 3000 USD (2250 USD to be returned to the treasury)\nExecutive Team Accomodation Costs: 750 USD\nTravel Expenses - Airfare (Return Ticket): 800 USD\n\n\nTotal: 1550 USD removed from Treasury\n\nLisbon, ARC City – September 10th to October 10th, 2024:\n\nARC is a private, invite-focused Pop-up city that is taking place in September in Lisbon.

ZuForever will market these only to the ARC community, which will seek accommodations for the whole month. The plan is to offer modular accommodation options, where we start with a limited set of apartment slots, which must be sold before expanding this offering to other apartments and condos.  \nRelevant Links: \nARC City: (TBD)\nAssociated Costs: \nExecutive Team Accommodation Expenses: 770 - 990 USD\n\n\nTotal: Roughly 1000 USD removed from treasury\n\nBangkok, Devcon Week – November 8th to November 15th, 2024:\nDevCon is the industry’s premier event for 2024.
