It depends where we see invitations coupled with where we have Hive community members able to put in the time and where its safe to do so. Usually after the first event or activity in an area we start getting invites to conferences either as a sponsor or speaker. It develops organically. Funding comes into some play to a point. In the US we had a conference ask for a sponsorship to the tune of our entire budget meanwhile rejecting our bid to speak about Hive. That wasn't feasible and you'll notice in all the conferences we sponsor we are always a presenter. The regions listed above are not all of the regions Hive is showcased in. Peru is starting up after, Germany, hopefully Belgium and Ireland, UK, India, and Mexico. In some countries like China even if we do get invitations it's a matter of travel restrictions. Now that the pandemic is "officially over" it's improving. We don't want to be spread too thin as merch and assets get reused (shuttled between events) to save as much as possible and by now we know what works and what doesn't.
