Hello everyone, I'm <a href="https://x.com/simonxpe">Saimon</a> Polkadot agent here =)
On this occasion I request a tip to compensate for the work as business development for the <a href="https://x.com/Space4Build/status/1839320454886256714">Polkadot activity carried out in the NTT DATA spaces in Barcelona Spain</a>.

The expenses generated by drinks, snacks, pizza and shipping (<a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11LzcbAtz5DzD3vWMpZ304jl1mbDGKzcK/edit?usp=sharing&amp;ouid=105931313405440879198&amp;rtpof=true&amp;sd=true">EUR 187.25</a> covered by myself) were shared with the <a href="https://dotmeetup.notion.site/Meetups-bounty-cd57b5990ba443559413dec3b339ab4a">Meet-up bounty but as indicated in their guidelines</a> the Costs that are not accepted are: Travel expenses, accommodation, commission for organizer or speakers, miscellaneous.&nbsp;
I am not involved in any bounty, curator nor am I part of the Head Ambassadors or DV under the payroll of the W3F or any parachain so OpenGov is the only space available for compensations of this type.
