I’m Hikmetcan ALTAŞ, External Relations Coordinator and Vice President of Çankaya University Blockchain Community. We have been working devotedly since the day we established our community. We met a lot of people by participating in many events. Among these events we attended, NEAR’s event was the one that impressed us the most. Before this event, I didn’t know that much about NEAR, but after participating in this event, NEAR’s projects caught my attention and we started working hard to find a place for ourselves in this family. By talking about NEAR at our school with our community, we will make our friends aware of these projects and contribute to the growth of the NEAR population. In order to do this in the most correct way, we ask for your support. I hope we will be together in this beautiful event.
I’m Ata Doruk Çakmak. I’m the vice president of our society. We have attended lots of entertaining and learning events since our establish. We had the chance to get to know lots of projects and Near was the most exciting project between all of them. So we would like to organize our own Near event. We will tell about Near and create a well-bonded environment that consists of people with knowledge about the blockchain of Near in our school.
I’m Dilara Bayındır, Event Manager of Çankaya University of Blockchain Community. As a community, we participated in many events. At these events, we had the opportunity to meet new people and listen to their projects. In this way, we have had great experiences that we have developed ourselves. We would like to organize an event where we will introduce the Near project and its ecosystem to the students of our school, with the experience we have gained and with your help. As a team, we are already very excited for this event.
I’m Mesude Gökpınar, Internal Relations Coordinator of Çankaya University Blockchain Community. Since the establishment of our club, we have been participating in various events, online or physically.One of them was the Ankara Near event, the organization and project of which I participated with my teammates, which was very exciting. With this motivation, we aim to organize our own Near event to our friends and environment with the opportunities you will offer on our campus. As the blockchain community, we are already very excited.
I’m Barkın Sarıkartal. My role in Çankaya University Blockchain Community is video editing. We have been participating most of the events in Turkey about crypto since we established our community. We also participated Near Ankara event and it was very inspiring. With this inspiration, we aim to organize our own Near event on our campus with the opportunities you will offer us. I hope we will be together in this beautiful event and inspire our friends who are on our campus.
Could you look at the proposal?I am İclal Sezin Gürses. I am in charge of social media management of Çankaya University Blockchain society. Since the very first day of our society, we have took part in many events as a team that gave us opportunity to improve ourselves as socially and academically. One of the most remarkable event was NEAR Ankara event. Because of that we really want to organize our own NEAR event at our school for the members of our society. I hope you help us to make this happen.
Thank you for your proposal.
Your team isn’t required to publish introductions on the governance forum to show support for the initiative.
We have already approved an event from your university which sets out to do the same things.
Please reach out to @REK to see how you two can collaborate
It’s a no from me.
Thanks for your proposal and for introducing the rest of the team.
I’ve got a few questions and comments;
- First off I want to address to overall ask for the proposal. Community Resources are in high demand and we are asking all teams to be as resourceful as possible to have the highest possible impact for every dollar;
- I’m wondering how NEAR could have a long standing presence at the University and what success would look like. It seems to me that $6k per event is not sustainable, but I’d love to see regular meetups, hackathons, etc. I’d invite the team to review the budget and take out any unnecessary items
- In regards to the quality of the speakers - how are we ensuring that the people representing NEAR are well equipped with the information required? It’s a high price point to provide shallow or incorrect content
- Would also like to learn more about the collaboration between NEAR Turkey and the university team. This could potentially addresss some of the issues above.
- Final point is that due to the processing times from the Foundation, payout may not be available til very close to the event. Let us know if there is a cut off date for confirming participation, etc.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts,
AVB
Hi @anilkaracayy thanks for your proposal.
I am unable to support this proposal in its current form and would suggest you reach out to the NEAR turkish community to find ways to collaborate.
