**Summary**

With the support of this Arbitrum DAO grant (USD 5,000), NERDCONF successfully executed a major presence for Arbitrum DAO at our Mendoza 2025 edition. The funding allowed us to deliver:

- A 40-minute main stage talk on Arbitrum.

- A hands-on developer workshop.

- Two educational video pieces.

- A follow-up webinar session.

- A % of the high-quality technical setup, medieval battle experience, and catering for 1,000+ attendees.

This presence directly engaged **450 developers** and reached **20,000+ users** online. Without this grant, it would not have been possible to execute the activation at this scale. [Read more here.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/18SlXM4g83USWuzuLIldNkp4mXi1tSoBr0ViFKFW6tuY/edit?usp=sharing)

## 6. Testimonials

**Testimonial 1**

_“The Arbitrum workshop at NERDCONF Mendoza gave me my first hands-on experience with L2 solutions. It helped me understand how to deploy faster and cheaper, and I’m excited to keep building on Arbitrum.”_ — Developer participant

**Testimonial 2**

_“I joined the main talk without much prior knowledge of Arbitrum. The session was clear, practical, and inspiring. It showed me real opportunities for Web3 development in Latin America.”_ — Student attendee

## **7.Additional Remarks**

NERDCONF highlights that, while no strong Spanish-speaking Arbitrum Telegram group exists today, we successfully directed interested builders to the official Arbitrum Discord Spanish channel. Strengthening this regional community is an important opportunity going forward.

We thank the Arbitrum community for their trust and support, and we remain committed to expanding the impact of the Arbitrum ecosystem throughout Latin America.
