How to Get Ready for Permissionless III: Your Web3 Survival Guide

So, you’re heading to Permissionless III? Get ready for an epic event full of Web3 pros, new projects, and all the networking you can handle. But let’s be real, if you want to make the most of it, you’ll need a plan.

Here’s a quick, fun guide to help you get ready:

1. Know What You Want

Why are you going? No, really. Set some goals before you dive into the event. Want to meet investors? Learn about new DeFi projects? Grab as many free T-shirts as possible? (No shame in that.) Whatever your goals, write ’em down so you stay focused.

Pro Tip: Aim to meet at least 5 new people who can help you reach those goals—networking gold!

2. Stalk… I Mean, Research the Attendees

Want to make connections? A little research beforehand goes a long way. Check out who’s attending and speaking. Twitter and LinkedIn are your best friends here.

Pro Tip: Use nReach to find key decision-makers and shoot them a message before the event. You’ll thank yourself later when your calendar’s full.

3. Perfect Your Pitch

You’ve got 30 seconds to explain what you do—make it count! Be ready to give a quick, engaging pitch. Whether you’re talking to a founder, an investor, or someone you met in line for coffee, keep it short and sweet.

Pro Tip: Practice your pitch in front of the mirror. Or, you know, your cat.

4. Don’t Forget the Essentials

Chargers, business cards, notebook—check, check, check. And, for the love of Web3, make sure you have all your messaging apps updated (Telegram, Discord, etc.).

Pro Tip: Portable chargers are your best friend. Because nothing says “I’m a pro” like your phone dying mid-meeting. 😬

5. Plan… But Not Too Much

Permissionless III will be jam-packed, so make a schedule for the key panels and workshops you want to hit. But don’t over plan—leave room for spontaneous chats and unexpected opportunities.

Pro Tip: Be flexible. Some of the best connections happen at the coffee station or an after-party.

6. Network Like a Pro

Look, the whole point of these events is to meet people. So, talk to everyone! Even that random person standing next to you in line might be your next big partner.

Pro Tip: Use nReach after the event to organize all those new contacts. Otherwise, you’ll be swimming in business cards by the end. 🏊‍♂️

7. Flex Your Social Media Game

During the event, use the hashtag #PermissionlessIII like it’s going out of style. Post insights, share photos, or just let the world know you’re having a blast.

Pro Tip: Live-tweet a few key moments from talks or panels to boost your engagement and show off your Web3 know-how. 📱

8. Follow Up—Quickly

Don’t be that person who never follows up. Send a message within 48 hours after the event to keep the connection alive. A simple “Great meeting you at Permissionless!” works wonders.

Pro Tip: Use nReach to automate your follow-ups and save yourself the hassle. It’s like having a personal assistant—without the awkward small talk.

Final Thoughts

Permissionless III is going to be huge, and with a little prep, you can make it even more awesome. So, get your goals straight, charge your devices, and get ready to network like a Web3 pro.

Oh, and don’t forget to have fun. You’re in for a wild ride!
