April 9th & 10th, 2022
San Diego, CA
NEARxPublish (NxP) has met with the team at San Diego NFT CON 2022, and are currently in talks to co-sponsor the 2-day event happening in April. We imagine an amazing outreach experience promoting NFT Creators, the NEAR Ecosystem and Guilds, as well as NxPs goals and capabilities. Of course, NEAR Artists and discussions involved therein will be promoted by NxP, as well as other guilds/platforms such as Paras, and Astro DAO. We aspire to invite artists from projects like Mr. Brown, and NEAR heavyweights like @starpause and Croncats
We’ve taken the next step and introduced the SD NFT CON organizers to @mecsbecs and @chronear from the NEAR Foundation, and they have guided us on the best approach to secure funding through the DAOs.
NxP is interested in providing on-site assistance not only with the overall event support and production, but also facilitating NEAR artists, guilds, and platforms who may participate as well.
NxP is looking to: 1) secure a booth at SD NFT CON; 2) assist the CON organizers with event printing costs and provide event printing materials as a good-in-kind as part of a sponsorship agreement; and 3) partner with the CON organizers to include NEAR NFT leaders onto their panels and other events.

We’d appreciate all input, support, and opportunities to foster alliances with other guilds to demonstrate a strong presence, while reaching non-NEAR entities for mutual benefit. NxP envisions on-site NEAR Drops, QR-coded materials, giveaways, swag bag items, as much as can possibly be brought to bear.
After a discussion with the SDNFTCON organizer, they are willing to adapt their sponsorship tiers in order to accommodate the above - especially the printing service - for USD $15K.
This is an excellent opportunity for the NEAR NFT Community to have a presence at this new event anticipating welcoming approximately 900 attendees across 3 venues with art auctions, networking, workshops, and investor meet-ups.
The organizing team also strongly believes in the value of building events by community for community with bridge-building, innovation, and inclusion in mind, so this promises to be an incredible partnership with great value alignment and connection-building cross-chain for NEARxPublish and NEAR.
For anyone interested in participating please reach out to us at nearxpublish@gmail.com by March 11th so we can coordinate and provide options and packages for you to be a part of SDNFTCon.
Look forward to hearing all feedback,
Thank you
The NEARxPublish Team
