Please describe your proposed solution

Problem:

The lack of events promoting the development of decentralized applications on the Cardano network in Europe.

Strategy:

Organize a hackathon in Barcelona to bring together developers from all over Europe.

Organize a workshop-style meeting for those interested prior to the hackanton. Provide mentoring and resources to support participants in the development of their projects.

Impact:

Increased development activity in the Cardano ecosystem.

Creation of new decentralized applications that drive the adoption and usefulness of Cardano.

Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community

Organizing this hackathon in Barcelona will help increase the visibility and adoption of Cardano in Europe by encouraging the development of new decentralized applications on its network. Additionally, it will strengthen the developer community and promote innovation in the Cardano ecosystem.

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

The feasibility of the approach will be validated through the participation and interest of the developer community in the hackathon, as well as through the evaluation of the projects developed during the event and their subsequent impact on the Cardano ecosystem.

What are the key milestones you need to achieve in order to complete your project successfully?

Milestone 1: Key Milestones to Successfully Complete the Project:

Selection of the place and date of the hackathon.

Promotion and registration of participants.

Organization and execution of the event.

Evaluation of the developed projects and selection of winners.

Evaluation of the impact of the hackathon on the Cardano ecosystem.

Milestone 2: The selection of the place and date of the hackathon: October 26, 27 and 28 in Barcelona, Cowork space called Impact Hub to be confirmed.

The promotion and registration of participants completed. The event has not yet been declared

The evaluation of the developed projects and selection of winners. Positive future development evaluation

Evaluating the impact of the hackathon on the Cardano ecosystem:

The evaluation of the impact of the hackathon on the Cardano ecosystem will be carried out by collecting data on participation in the event, the performance of the developed projects and feedback from the participants. This will include metrics such as the number of participants, the quality of projects submitted, the level of interaction between developers, and the perceived impact on the Cardano community. Additionally, a detailed report will be prepared that will analyze this data and provide a clear view of the impact of the hackathon on the promotion, adoption and development of Cardano.

Final Milestone: Visual or documentary evidence is presented that demonstrates the successful execution of the hackathon, including activities, sessions and ceremonies.

Project evaluation criteria are clear and objective, and a transparent methodology is used to select winners.
