🌐FWB Cities
What Is the FWB Cities Program?
The FWB Cities program includes three cities in which FWB is building an "IRL layer" and establishing as "home bases" for FWB: London, New York, and Los Angeles. Each of these cities' programming is run by a City Lead and a Partnerships lead, in addition to support from those participating in and attending FWB Cities events. Each city effectively functions as a "sub-DAO" of FWB, and work in coordination with two FWB Cities treasurers.
All FWB Cities channels can be viewed on the FWB Discord server. You are encouraged to pick one that feels most like home, but feel free to participate in any/all three. For instance, many folks dropped into the NYC Cities channel to find cool events and lodging during NFT.NYC 2021.
Our official FWB Cities - London, New York, and Los Angeles - have elected their own City Teams and will be hosting experiences ranging from local dinners to partnering with local co-working spaces to pooling capital to invest in local initiatives.
Beginning in Season 4, FWB introduced the FWB Local membership tier. This new membership level is much more accessible, at a cost of only having to hold 5 FWB. By holding 5 $FWB, Local Tier members are allowed to participate in FWB Cities conversations, governance, events, and experiences.

Why Was FWB Cities Created?
FWB Cities was established as part of the evolving organization of FWB. FWB began, and still functions as, a hub-and-spoke network:

With the establishment of sub-DAOs in the form of FWB Cities, FWB is moving towards organizing itself as a multi-hub network with products and initiatives being driven on the local level - see graphic below. Read more about the effort to grow locally in Season 4's announcement here.
