## **Recap: IPFS Thing 2023 🔄**
|
||||
|
||||
The IPFS implementers community recently gathered in Brussels, Belgium for the second year of [IPFS þing](https://2023.ipfs-thing.io/), an annual gathering dedicated to advancing IPFS implementation. With 12 tracks and over 75 talks, demos, and sessions, the 5-day summit that occurred in April 2023 was a showcase of recent advances across IPFS, a forum for sharing needs from the protocol, and an opportunity to chart new directions for the future of IPFS.
