[Closed] WEB3 On Campus - October 2023

Hey there, NEAR Fam! We’re from IDNFT, and we want to share our plan to help boost the number of users and developers in the NEAR ecosystem. This aligns perfectly with NEAR’s goal of mass onboarding.

Our aim is to kickstart a program where we visit famous institutions in Indonesia, coordinate groups at each university, provide education about Web3 and blockchain, and introduce the best technologies available.

From our analysis, we see great potential in forming a long-term partnership with NEAR. This proposal is our way of showing goodwill and taking the first steps towards more serious and substantial collaborations. Thanks to NEAR Indonesia for welcoming us aboard and demonstrating that the community is all about working together and not going it alone

Here is the information about who we are and what cool stuff we want to bring to the table with this proposal.

Experience
My name is Santosa, and I am the founder of IDNFT, the largest NFT and Web3 community in Indonesia. Additionally, I am actively building the Metadev community, dedicated to Web3 developers in Indonesia. In my work within the Web3 space in Indonesia, I have primarily focused on education and adoption efforts, which include organizing events like IDNFT Academy with over 2000 participants and Web3 on Campus, conducted in collaboration with more than 10 of the biggest campuses in Indonesia, attracting over 2500 participants.

Some of the notable Web3 projects I have completed include the IDNFT Academy, a comprehensive Web3 and NFT education program, and Web3 on Campus, a series of educational events held in partnership with prominent Indonesian campuses. Additionally, I have been actively involved in building and nurturing the Metadev community, a thriving ecosystem for Web3 developers in Indonesia.

Project Name: Web3 on Campus

Project Overview: WEB3 On Campus is a collaborative program between IDNFT and universities aimed at supporting The Three Pillars of Higher Education by providing socialization and education opportunities for students on NFT and Web3 in Indonesia.

This program provides universities with fast and reliable access to education and information updates from NFT and Web3 industry players and aims to give students an overview of new opportunities and potential career paths in the field.

What Problem Are You Aiming to Solve?

In Indonesia, Web3 adoption is still limited, and universities struggle to provide formal and professional education in this field. There is a clear need for a direct and formal approach through educational institutions. We require a platform for continuous and sustainable growth

How Does This Project Help Solve the Problems You’ve Listed?

Web3 on Campus brings in experts, direct representatives, role models, and real-life project examples. Here, we can also onboard newcomers into Web3 with existing use cases. This is the most effective means to provide education and foster adoption simultaneously

What Are the Goals of This Project?

WEB3 On Campus is a collaborative program between IDNFT and universities aimed at supporting the Three Pillars of Higher Education by providing socialization, education, research, and opportunities for students in the fields of Blockchain, NFTs, Web3, and the Metaverse in Indonesia.

This program provides universities with fast and reliable access to education and information updates from NFT and Web3 industry players and aims to give students an overview of new opportunities and potential career paths in the field.

Additionally, this program serves as a way to onboard a large number of developers and users into the Web3 ecosystem and provides space for project showcases

Educating and building the ecosystem directly with real use cases that participants can adopt immediately. We believe that the best way to achieve adoption is by trying it out

We’ve got some big plans too, like organizing a university competition together with NEAR Indonesia. One of the exciting ideas is to hold a Hackathon for creating components or dapps on NEAR BOS.

But we’ll get to all of that once we have enough details to move forward to the next phase. :wink:

Looking forward for your support!

Thank you for your proposal.

It is great to see university campuses get involved in the development and adaptation of any product or ecosystem.

Try to figure out how this helps on achieve our core values and goals, Read more here However, I was unable to locate alignment.

With the upcoming NearCon, I doubt we will be able to support any IRL events for the time being.

Again, I recommend that you look into Devhub’s recent initiative, particularly their IRL program called “HACKBOX.” It will be great if you look into it here https://near.org/hackbox.near/widget/home

Unfortunately, I will not be able to support this proposal at this time. You can resubmit after Nearcon or use Devhub as an alternate.

Hi @santosa thanks for the proposal. It sounds like you have built am impressive group in Indonesia doing important work to onboard new populations into web3. I am glad you have connected with the NEAR Indonesia team.

I agree with @Bakaka that applying to Hackbox is the best next step forward. At the core of the proposal is a request to host a hackathon. That is exactly what they are specifically set up to do.

Additionally, the MarketingDAO has a soft funding cap of $10K and very rarely funds the full amount to first time proposers. We typically ask to see a smaller initiative funded and reported on as a success with metrics we can review in order to approve additional or ongoing funding requests.

Big thanks to our friends @

Bakaka and @ so608 for their responses! We’re excited to announce that the event is going great. We’ve also got a special guest, @ derymars, representing Near Indonesia as one of our speakers. Can’t wait to create another initiative with Near in our upcoming programs.
