Ipê Village
A one-month pop-up city run by Ipê City, which calls itself Brazil's first network-state node. Hundreds of builders co-live in themed hacker houses (Privacy, AI, Onchain, Artizen) and prototype governance, identity, and public-service infrastructure for an internet-native city. The first edition drew 170+ residents from 10+ countries and produced 30+ applications in a month. The 2026 edition opens with the Startup Society Conference on April 10, with Founder Haus as the central coworking hub.
Founded by Jean Hansen; Brazil's first pop-up city, run in the network-state / startup-society lineage alongside Próspera, Vitalia and Crecimiento, and noted by Balaji Srinivasan
