It's a very young organization with the mission of empowering developers to build applications on top of the Cardano ecosystem. It started as an idea by Santiago Carmuega, Federico Weill and Alejandro Drabenche and hopes, in time, to become a larger DAO composed of developers building for developers.

Cardano Summit 2023

In a move towards mainstream blockchain adoption, Input Output Global (IOG), deployed <a href="https://marlowe.iohk.io/blog/marlowe-goes-live-be-the-first-to-explore-the-power-of-marlowes-smart-contract-toolset">Marlowe on mainnet in May 2023</a>. On July 5, 2023, IOG teams gathered in Lisbon, a prominent hub for blockchain in Europe, showcasing the commitment to advancing smart contract use cases and development goals.<h2>Unlocking new possibilities for Cardano developers</h2><a href="https://marlowe.iohk.io/">Marlowe's</a> arrival marks a significant milestone in the blockchain industry. Following a successful <a href="https://marlowe.iohk.io/blog/a-comprehensive-guide-to-marlowe-s-security-audit-outcomes-built-in-functional-restrictions-and">security audit</a> by an external firm <a href="https://www.tweag.io/">Tweag</a>, Marlowe provides users with a safe, efficient, and accessible platform for developing smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps). Unlike traditional development processes that require specialized programming skills, Marlowe simplifies the entire process, allowing builders to focus on workflow and business logic. &nbsp;During the live launch event in Lisbon, the team presented Marlowe's key features and benefits:<img class="image_resized" style="width:auto;" src="https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/ffc7e0e650d4ae252d093662306f040af696b6ef-1920x1081.png?w=3840" alt="Marlowe benefits" srcset="https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/ffc7e0e650d4ae252d093662306f040af696b6ef-1920x1081.png?w=1920 1x, https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/ffc7e0e650d4ae252d093662306f040af696b6ef-1920x1081.png?w=3840 2x" sizes="100vw" width="1920" loading="lazy"> Reusable and customizable templates: Marlowe provides developers with pre-built templates that can be customized to suit their specific requirements, saving time and effort in the development process.<ul><li>Built-in simulator: With Marlowe's built-in simulator, developers can test their contracts before deployment, ensuring they function as intended and minimizing the risk of errors.</li><li>Easy setup and example applications: Marlowe offers a user-friendly interface and comes with example contracts that serve as practical guides for developers, enabling them to get started quickly on their projects.</li><li>Powerful APIs: Marlowe APIs enhance the functionality and flexibility of smart contracts, enabling developers to build complex applications with ease.</li></ul><a href="https://marlowe.iohk.io/blog/marlowe-launch-party-celebrating-the-future-of-smart-contracts#collaboration-with-txpipe-and-demeter-run">#</a><h2>Collaboration with TxPipe and Demeter Run</h2>IOG also announced its collaboration with <a href="https://txpipe.io/">TxPipe</a> to provide developers with seamless access to Marlowe Runtime through <a href="https://demeter.run/">Demeter Run</a>. Demeter Run, a cloud-based platform, eliminates the need for developers to set up and maintain their own infrastructure for leveraging Cardano's blockchain technology. This collaboration ensures that developers can make the most of the Cardano ecosystem without any hassle.<img class="image_resized" style="width:auto;" src="https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/aceaa91f6e11a8ef84063c74aa53517fdef32aa0-1440x960.webp?w=3840" alt="Santiago Carmuega TxPipe" srcset="https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/aceaa91f6e11a8ef84063c74aa53517fdef32aa0-1440x960.webp?w=1920 1x, https://cdn.sanity.io/images/cogl778i/production/aceaa91f6e11a8ef84063c74aa53517fdef32aa0-1440x960.webp?w=3840 2x" sizes="100vw" width="1440" loading="lazy">&nbsp;<a href="https://marlowe.iohk.io/blog/marlowe-launch-party-celebrating-the-future-of-smart-contracts#realizing-the-power-of-smart-contracts-on-cardano">#</a><h2>Realizing the power of smart contracts on Cardano</h2>Marlowe's <a href="https://docs.marlowe.iohk.io/docs/developer-tools/overview">set of tools</a> includes support for JavaScript and Haskell, integration with the Blockly visual editor, and easy deployment options both on cloud services and local hosts.

Marlowe launch party: celebrating the future of smart contracts

It was there where all our efforts found its peak.<img class="image_resized" style="width:680px;" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*cH7yK2ofkYE2YNNWB1BWeQ.jpeg" alt="" loading="lazy">July 12th 2023, Cardano CIP1694 Global Workshop at Edinburgh, ScotlandBut let’s rewind a little. Our journey started last November, in 2022, when the Voltaire era was announced in <a href="https://cardano.org/">Cardano</a>, as the era where the blockchain's evolution will become 100% decentralized, by giving the Cardano community the technical and social mechanisms to be able to implement an on and off chain Government. Later in that year, that announcement took the form of a formal proposal, the CIP1694 (CIP stands for Cardano Improvement Proposal) which is a formal document that aims to define, openly and with the community contribution, the first steps into that decentralization journey.This proposition inspired us, but we noticed an unnerving silence from Latin America into the formal discussion. Recognizing that the success of a decentralized government lies in diversity and inclusion, the <a href="https://linktr.ee/latamcardano">LATAM Cardano Community</a> created an ambitious initiative to produce the proper local spaces to drive active participation and involvement by the LATAM community into the global CIP 1694 conversation.So we initiated a series of in-person workshops across the continent, with pioneers from twelve vibrant cities in our region: from BuenosAires' bustling avenues to Mexico City's ancient charm, Caracas' tropical fervor to Bogota's highland allure, La Cumbre's tranquility and Manizales' verdant beauty to Tlaxcala's cultural heritage, Puerto Madryn's coastal charm to Santiago's historic majesty to Rio Cuarto's scenic beauty, La Plata's eclectic appeal to Sao Paulo's metropolitan dynamism.<img class="image_resized" style="width:680px;" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*p7yzSOX-KlHh7SOgSEfcqQ.png" alt="" loading="lazy">Our rallying call was answered with enthusiasm by more than 137 people that were part of those workshops, and by June 2023, we’d united representatives from each city in the serene surroundings of Punta del Este, Uruguay. Here, we distilled our shared knowledge, unique perspectives, and collective aspirations into a comprehensive <a href="https://latamcardano-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/hola_latamcardano_org/ESijD3iRWHRCpJpKV8oCf_4BSSR0JUjCAnlA6DfMPNF2xg?e=as3FWW">document that we shared</a> with the global community.<img class="image_resized" style="width:612px;" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:612/1*dAvvmHC4Ik3nt_k6oQl40w.png" alt="" loading="lazy">Fast-forward to July, our delegation of seven members found ourselves journeying to the historic city of Edinburgh in the unique landscapes of beautiful Scotland. We were invited by <a href="https://iohk.io/">IOG</a>, <a href="https://cardanofoundation.org/">Cardano Foundation</a>, and <a href="https://www.emurgo.io/">Emurgo</a> to participate in a global workshop designed to bring the insights from all the workshops held across the globe, to common ground aiming to reach a compromise for the first Minimum Viable Government. The event was attended by around 70 individuals from all continents, making it a truly global gathering of minds with a multicultural background.The grandeur of the setting was the perfect occasion for top executives from the entities driving Cardano today, to work hand in hand with the community. Between those execs that graced the event, we want to highlight <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamarahaasen/">Tamara Haasen</a>, President and <a href="https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles">Charles Hoskinson</a>, CEO both from IOG and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenkodama/">Ken Kodama</a>, CEO and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/amarpreetsingh2/">Amarpreet Singh</a>, COO both from Emurgo. But execs are not the only ones to highlight as there were many individuals putting an enormous passion and effort into making this workshop a success and making the atmosphere, one that's suits perfect for the challenge, the success of the gathering was mostly to the work of people, that unfortunately is impossible to mention all, but we would like to recognize some of them by their active interaction with the community <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheldonhunt/">Sheldon Hunt</a> leading the community's efforts and insights, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joanna-z-rhoden/">Joanna Rhoden</a>, putting together and amazing event, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nigel-hemsley-433a213/">Nigel Hemsley</a>, leading the Governance initiative within IOG, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolas-cerny-892754193/">Nicolas Cerny</a> providing good insights from the different communities from Cardano Foundation and finally the two CIP main writers <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthias-benkort-47186a57/">Matthias Benkort</a> at CF and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaredcorduan/">Jared Corduan</a> ex IOG.There were also many well known Cardano's community members from all over the world and we cannot highlight quite enough how important was to have their insights, their point of view, their arguments and well worked proposals representing amazing communities that have been around since day one, and have demonstrated humongous passion for Cardano and its future.Over the course of two days, we found ourselves engaged in rich discussions, surrounded by fellow passionate and enthusiastic innovators and thought leaders in the Blockchain and Web3 spaces. The buzz of ideas and energy was palpable. Our task was to bring forth the voice of Latin America, delivering the collective insights we’d gathered from our regional workshops, what we did over three stage appearances from our very passionate representatives.<img class="image_resized" style="width:680px;" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*JKuuaMk6-3SdDpHY_Dz_fg.jpeg" alt="" loading="lazy">We were able to present our idea of a Minimum Viable Constitution, that needs to be developed in parallel to the technical efforts, as it is vital to set the purpose of what we are doing, also the CIP should recognize the supremacy of the constitution over any other document preceding or following its enactment.Also got to explain our idea that taking a clear and safe position by guarding the Cardano treasury while we walk the first steps of the MVG it is of outmost importance, creating a limit on both the amount of funds per period of time as well per proposal that are allowed to be requested via a governance action. Limits that can be raised or loosen after some iterations and insights happens.Many of the concepts presented by the LATAM team were latter mentioned and highlighted by many people in the room, leaving us with the sense that we have not only been listened, but rather allowed to contribute a lot, fruit of our structured, diverse and multi cultural hard work approach.The discussion on the tables were very interesting, ranging from how to allow a voting mechanism that does not block the performance or the cost of the blockchain, towards how we can avoid bad behaviors, e.g. aimed at blocking the governance by flooding it with proposals. And how to do that without sacrificing inclusivity and diversity. There were some discussions that come to a consensus, and other that were better left for a further discussion and analysis.The road to create a powerful, safe yet flexible and inclusive governance mechanism is not one of a single workshop or debate, and as it was said during the workshop our aim shall be to land the technical mechanisms for onchain governance during 2023, to let the social and off-chain mechanisms be guided and debated in parallel towards 2024, as it is a more complex debate.The setting in Edinburgh served as a testament to the convergence of history and future, traditional and innovative, much like our mission. As we walked through the city’s cobbled streets and marveled at its ancient charm, we were reminded of the enormity of our task — to shape a decentralized future grounded in the wisdom of diverse cultures and the shared desire for inclusive progress to all the people in the world.It was a humbling and invigorating experience, and as we prepare for the next steps into this journey, we cannot help but feel immense gratitude to our sponsors, 9 companies that share our purpose and are sensitive of the need for LATAM to be present, without them this journey would've had certainly a milder impact.THANKS so much to <a href="https://www.geniusyield.co/">Genius Yield</a> and <a href="https://www.genius-x.co/">Genius X</a> our main sponsors, <a href="https://cardanofeed.com/">Cardano Feed</a> our media sponsor and all the amazing sponsors that supported us <a href="https://rootsid.com/">RootsID</a>, <a href="https://www.tokenallies.com/">Token Allies</a>, <a href="https://txpipe.io/">TXPipe</a>, <a href="https://www.mithr.io/">Token Mithrandir</a>, <a href="https://mayz.io/">Mayz Protocol</a> and <a href="https://app.realtok.io/">Realtok</a>.
