Introducing Polkadot India - A pan India community of Substrate developers, entrepreneurs and Polkadot enthusiasts. 

Substrate is a promising technology. While building on it, we felt the need for a local community that could support us. Since it didn’t exist, we decided to start building it. Our team comes from a history of community building. Members of our team have built some of India’s largest Startup and Developer communities. We have the necessary reach and influence to build a 10,000 member Substrate developer community fairly quickly. 

This development firepower could not only trigger a wave of blockchain innovation in the Indian subcontinent but also serve the needs of Substrate based projects around the world. 

We aim to sensitize the Indian crypto community about Polkadot and Indian developers about Substrate. 
Initially we aim to build our audience through events and partnering with existing developer and startup communities.

To this effect we have created two properties DotFriday(A Guest Webinar Series), and Substrate Saturdays(A Bootcamp Series)

Our properties have been seeing glimpses of success and the community has been growing rapidly since September,  and we propose to continue hosting such events with an aim of impacting 1500 crypto enthusiasts and 1000 developers over 6 months, paving way for the bigger plans ahead.
