Hello,

I'm Patrice, a French Polkadot ambassador and content creator. I manage the French blog Tendances Crypto. I am planning to submit a proposal to create a Polkadot content hub for the French community. Before submitting my proposal as a referendum, I would like to engage in discussions with the Polkadot community. You can find my complete proposal here, and I can provide additional details if needed.

About me:

Hello, I’m Patrice, a French Polkadot Ambassador. I create content about Polkadot since two years on my website “Tendances Crypto”, on Twitter and with “Polkadot Francophonie” community on Twitch. I believe that we must all work together to create a decentralized web to protect our data and identities, and for me, Polkadot is the only way to build a decentralized space for everyone and every project.

Description:

France is showing increasing interest in the web3, and major French brands are developing strategies to integrate this new sector (Carrefour, Axa, Adidas, PMU, etc.). However, they have limited knowledge of Polkadot at the moment. There are two main reasons for this: there is very little regular content about Polkadot in the French media, and there is also a lack of support for companies looking to enter the Polkadot ecosystem.

To address this issue, it is necessary to create a true hub of French content to promote Polkadot and engage in a B2B approach to attract projects that can utilize Polkadot's technology. This approach will have five aspects:

1. A weekly newsletter on governance.
2. A monthly newsletter on ecosystem news.
3. A weekly thematic article.
4. A chatbot that will use information from the articles and official Polkadot documentation, as well as parachains, to answer readers' questions.
5. LinkedIn posts to build a B2B audience.

The goal of this content is to grow the Polkadot community in France, increase the readership of Polkadot-related articles, and expand the number of French companies willing to adopt Polkadot's solutions. This proposal will fund this content hub for ten months (44 weeks).
