Leading up to the event we are intending to produce engaging content to be spread across social media. 1st session: DeFi use cases and developer focused component The first session will be focused on Polkadot introduction: General overview and introduction to Acala - a DeFi parachain on Polkadot. This session will aim for introduction into the Polkadot ecosystem for newcomers and beginners and encourage them to get involved as a developer on Polkadot and Kusama, DeFi on Polkadot and data querying on Polkadot and Kusama. 2nd Session Culture, ecosystem building and crypto entrepreneurship in the polkadot ecosystem. The event will be focused on Art on Kusama and Polkadot with speakers that are working on NFT protocols and standards for the Kusama network. This session will aim for Polkadot art in general, NFT minting on Kusama and how it works, on chain standard for custom notes on Kusama protocol (RMRK). We will also share in this session the fascinating business case of how Polkadot became a phenomenal case study of how to grow the global open source ecosystem harnessing the Chinese developer ecosystem that is spread across the world.

Hi, thank you for the post - Id like to know what are the success metrics you will take into account to judge this event after completion and if joining the event is free of charge? can we also find the recordings in a specific site after the event ends?
Additionally, you re requesting the allocation for event planning, content creation before and after the event (video, blogs, visual banners) and promotion in communities: could you give us a bit more granularity to understand how you intend to use the funds?
Hey Raul, thanks for taking the time to read through the proposal.
- Joining the event is free of charge. Registration link is found here:
- https://www.airmeet.com/e/6c7c50d0-8af1-11eb-b0ad-e19826cea63b
- https://www.airmeet.com/e/f8316ab0-8be2-11eb-95a1-2f5dd866dcfd
With regard to what success metrics are we targeting:
- Onboarding developers: Since 2016 we've onboarded hundreds of developers to crypto. one developer at a time, if this events results in 2-3 developers joining the space we'd consider it a success already.
- Creating content that supports emerging founders with their objectives of partnerships, hiring etc (e.g. Bitfwd has been supporting SubQuery and KodaDot founders through project formation since early 2020)
Recording: We will be uploading the talks videos to Bitfwd's YouTube.
Budget allocation: I was in fact late to submit the proposal to treasury as we were busy on the event planning and Kusama Governance process are still new to me, However, the budget goes to cover for team member's support and promotion of the event. Team: 8k for the content and operation.
- Blog posts: Promo blog, talks summary blogs, case study on Polkadot open source ecosystem building post, keynote, and video will be produced.
Promotion: 2k will go to spend on event promotion in quality developer channels once budget it approved.
Happy to answer any additional questions.
Thanks @exponent for the info on metrics.
"8k for the content and operation." - what does content and operations include exactly?
When you say: "2k will go to spend on event promotion in quality developer channels " - does this mean you pay for this channels? or what exactly is the expense?
Hey @rrtti-5220, let me elaborate:
Regarding content: it includes producing written content in the form of promotional blog, open source Polkadot ecosystem building case study, written summary of event talks, graphic artwork for the event (banners, social media copies etc).
Regarding operation: it includes coordinating and chasing up speakers, preparing the event runsheet and online platform + registration (Airmeet) logistics for each of the speakers, and the audience, editing the recording, uploading to YouTube. Posting the content after the event in relevant channels.
Thanks for clarifying!

Hey netizens of the Kusama ecosystem, thanks to your support we ran a fantastic online 2 event series hosting great speakers. It was great to be able to grow the Polkadot ecosystem through community outreach, several of the people got little exposure to the Substrate ecosystem before hence it was even more enjoyable to be able to expose some new comers too.
