***NOTE (May 5, 2022): Sorry, we accidentally entered the Bond value in the value field. Pleae bear with us while we work with the Polkadot team to identify the right way forward from here.*** 

After a community launch in September, in over 7 months we have built a 9000+ community including investors, developers, students, web3 entrepreneurs as well as crypto & blockchain enthusiasts. Our monthly event properties - Dot Friday(Guest Webinars) and Substrate Saturday(Bootcamps for Developers) have seen growing traction and to keep growing the Polkadot community in India. 

Now, with an aim of impacting 5000+ more crypto enthusiasts and 1000+ new developers over 3 months (Apr, May & Jun 2022), here's a proposal for our next set of 3 DotFriday Webinars and 6 Substrate Bootcamps, paving way for the bigger plans ahead toward building an Indian blockchain & web3 community. We hence seek the Polkadot Treasury Grant to make this possible.
