In person Polkadot centric event
x200 people (strictly invitation only)
Location: Sway Bar, Holborn, London UK
Date: 03/07/2024

Summary:
We aim to create much greater understanding about the Polkadot technology but also the opportunities of real world applications that can, and are, being built on Polkadot. London is one of the biggest financial hubs in the world yet there is virtually no Polkadot presence currently. Ecosystem projects (from all around the world) are being built on Polkadot, however they all require funding at every stage of their development, so we need a constant flow of new liquidity into Polkadot and the wider ecosystem.

We aim to bring together key figures both within; Parity, PBA (and Alumni), Ecosystem Project teams, VCs & Investors, Real Estate Developers & Investors & Legal Professionals. By showcasing Polkadots interoperability and trustless bridging using XCM in tangible projects, will give much needed reassurance that Polkadot is the new iteration of the internet.

We also aim to kick start a regular London Polkadot meetup (coordinated by PBA alumni) for web3 / web2 engineers & builders to learn more about the Polkadot technology and how they can get involved to start building cool stuff.

Polkadot London Event - Dawn of RWAs 

Treasury

This proposal seeks retroactive compensation from the Polkadot Treasury for Raul and Otar of JUST Beteiligungen GmbH, recognizing their extensive contributions to the Polkadot ecosystem. Their work includes supporting runtime upgrades, facilitating OpenGov implementation, guiding treasury proposals, and engaging in community education and events. Raul, an early council member, and Otar, a key governance figure since 2021, have driven essential governance processes, supported stakeholders, moderated community channels, and launched educational initiatives. Their efforts have significantly shaped Polkadot's governance mechanisms and community development, and they request compensation for these past contributions, made independently of any Parity contractual agreements.

- **Problem Statement:** Lack of Polkadot presence in London's financial hub.
- **Significance:** Need for continuous funding for ecosystem projects built on Polkadot.
- **Proposed Solution:** Organize an exclusive in-person event in London to educate about Polkadot technology and showcase real-world applications.
- **Expected Outcomes:** Increased understanding of Polkadot technology, fostering collaborations among key industry figures, and initiating regular Polkadot meetups in London.
