New Delhi [India], October 1: In a significant move to bolster India’s growing Web3 ecosystem, ICP India Hub Crewsphere has launched the highly anticipated Web3 Sankalp Tour 2024. Set to take place across six of the country’s most prominent cities–Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Hyderabad, and Chennai–the tour promises to be a game-changer in democratizing Web 3.0 education and fostering innovation among the next generation of developers.

As India cements its position as a global leader in cryptocurrency adoption, Crewsphere’s initiative offers a timely and much-needed boost to the country’s Web3 sector. The Web3 Sankalp Tour is designed to bridge the knowledge gap that still exists for many students and aspiring developers, particularly those outside major metropolitan areas. By bringing intensive, hands-on blockchain training to different regions, Crewsphere aims to equip participants with practical skills in Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) development, one of the most advanced blockchain technologies available today.

This tour is not just another event on the Web3 calendar; it’s a strategic initiative aimed at empowering students and young professionals across India to become key players in the Web3 space. As Crewsphere co-founder Bandhul Bansal explains, “The Web3 Sankalp Tour is our commitment to making Web3 education accessible to all. We believe that innovation in this sector should not be limited to a few tech hubs but spread across the country to create a more inclusive and collaborative ecosystem.”

The tour will feature in-depth workshops and bootcamps, providing participants with a hands-on understanding of Internet Computer Protocol technology. These sessions are designed to move beyond theory and give students a concrete understanding of how Web3 can be applied in real-world scenarios. From decentralized finance to supply chain solutions, the focus will be on helping participants not just learn but also innovate, using the power of Web3.

Deepak Goyal, co-founder of Crewsphere, emphasized the practical nature of the tour. “Our goal is to empower students with the tools they need to thrive in the decentralized tech landscape. The Web3 Sankalp Tour is about giving participants real-world skills that will help them not only understand blockchain but also apply it in meaningful ways,” he said.

The Web3 Sankalp Tour is expected to play a crucial role in expanding India’s Web3 capabilities, especially as the country’s crypto adoption continues to soar. While India is already recognized as a leader in Web3, thanks to a strong grassroots movement, initiatives like the Web3 Sankalp Tour are essential to sustaining and accelerating this growth. By investing in the education of future Web3 developers, Crewsphere is helping ensure that India remains at the forefront of global Web3 innovation.

For spreading voter awareness among the masses, India’s first metaverse powered virtual model Polling Booth was established for providing a virtual mock polling experience to the participants. Crewpshere: ICP India and their technology partner Volaverse in association with DEO Ludhiana, Punjab have set up India’s first model polling booth and Ujjwal Singla (CEO Volaverse) told the audience about the importance of metaverse technology.

DC Ludhiana and Observer also experienced the voting process in virtual reality. Live band among other awareness activities were organised at MBD Neopolis mall on Ferozepur road on Saturday late evening.

The District Election Song – ‘Votan 2024’ was also launched by Election observers including General Observer Divya Mittal IAS, expenditure observers Chetan D Kalamkar IRS and Pankaj Kumar IRS, District Election Officer (DEO) Sakshi Sawhney among other officials during the awareness event.

ARO Ludhiana Central Ojasvi Alankar said that the awareness event ‘Is Vaar, Ludhiana 70 paar’, was organised by district administration in collaboration with Crewsphere and Volaverse teams under SVEEP program. The aim is to achieve the target of over 70 per cent voter turnout (Iss Baar, 70 Paar) during the general elections.

Crewsphere: ICP India Hub Co-founder, Deepak Goyal was also present at the event and he mentioned about the importance of latest technologies like Metaverse and Blockchain in shaping up the overall election experience for the public in the future elections.

Such technologies can bring more transparency to the overall process and can also make the overall experience seamless for the voters. Administration urged the residents to step out in large numbers and exercise their ‘Right to Vote’ on June 1. India being the largest democracy in the world, is currently undergoing General Lok Sabha Elections where Punjab voters will be participating in it on June 1, 2024.

As the world charts its course into the Web3 era, India is positioned to lead the way. The recent formation of the ICP Asia Alliance, bolstered by a whopping USD 20 million grant from the DFINITY Foundation, sets the stage for a new wave of Web3 and AI innovations in Asia.

As India emerges at the forefront of global blockchain development, Crewsphere propels the nation further with initiatives like the concluded ‘Sankalp Web3 Tour’ and the monumental USD 100K ICP Hackathon.

In the recently concluded Sankalp Web3 Tour, Crewsphere, in its mission to democratize Web3 education and opportunities, touched the intellectual corridors of India’s elite educational institutions. Colleges from Bennett to BITS, from IITs to IIITs, and other top-tier engineering establishments, witnessed Crewsphere’s dedication to fuel India’s meteoric rise in the blockchain world.

Deepak Goyal, Co-founder of Crewsphere who himself an IIT Delhi alumnus, having imparted knowledge about ICP at IIT Delhi, exclaimed, “India’s youth are not just participating, they’re pioneering the global blockchain frontier.”

The tour not only cultivated knowledge but laid down the foundation for groundbreaking innovations. Crewsphere successfully launched over 50 college hackathons simultaneously across the nation’s premier IITs, NITs, and other leading engineering institutions. These individual competitions have set the stage for the National Hackathon, where the best minds, honed by the rigorous challenges of their college hackathons, will vie for the coveted prize pool of USD 100K.

However, the journey doesn’t end with a mere prize. The winners of the National Hackathon have the golden opportunity awaiting them. They stand to secure potential funding from the esteemed ICP Asia Alliance who have announced a 20 million USD fund, offering them a chance to transform their innovative blockchain ideas into full-fledged Web3 ventures.

Bandhul Bansal, Co-founder of Crewsphere, expressed his enthusiasm: “Developing on ICP isn’t just about the tech. It’s about shaping the future. By partnering with the ICP Asia Alliance, we’re fostering a generation that will lead the decentralized world.”

Furthermore, in a powerful collaboration, Crewsphere joined hands with OKX wallet, leveraging their state-of-the-art wallet system. This strategic partnership aimed at immersing students even deeper into the world of Web3, allowing them a hands-on, real-world experience of blockchain’s immense possibilities.

Recent Chainalysis data spotlighted India’s meteoric rise in the blockchain domain. Initiatives like Crewsphere’s are driving this momentum, positioning India not merely as a participant but as a trendsetter in the global blockchain narrative.

India’s Web3 leadership journey has truly begun. Crewsphere is ensuring it’s a journey that will inspire generations.
