Michael Egorov amongst other leading industry builders who will be speaking about DeFi at EthCC[8] in Cannes

The Ethereum Community Conference EthCC has announced additional speakers for its 2025 edition in Cannes, highlighting a strong focus on decentralized finance (DeFi). An official EthCC social media post names Michael Egorov, founder of Curve Finance, as a DeFi track speaker, alongside other builders such as Lindsay Danas Cohen of Boundless by RISC Zero. The EthCC speaker page lists Egorov under the DeFi track with his affiliation to Curve, confirming his role as one of the event’s headline DeFi participants. EthCC will take place from June 30 to July 3, 2025, at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes, marking a relocation of Europe’s longest-running Ethereum community conference to the French Riviera. The inclusion of Egorov is notable given Curve’s role as a major DeFi protocol and his recent work on new designs to address impermanent loss and improve capital efficiency in automated market makers. By featuring Egorov and other technically focused builders, EthCC signals that DeFi research, protocol design, and scalability remain central themes for the Ethereum developer and research community going into 2025.
