Kolkata Chapter Meetup
✳️ What is the purpose of this Meetup?
How women can get started in web3.
There are a few ways women can get started in web3. One way is to join a women-only coding group or meetup. These groups can provide support and networking opportunities. Another way is to seek out online resources and communities that focus on women in tech. These can be helpful for finding mentors, learning about new technologies, and networking with other women in the industry. Finally, it is important to attend industry events and conferences that focus on blockchain and web3 technologies. These events can be great for networking, learning about new projects, and meeting potential employers.
We want to cover this topic in detail, and share views & opinions on how women participation can increase in web3, and why it is good for the whole ecosystem.
✳️ CoinDCX Local Chapters
Local chapters are local communities across cities and towns in India, led and managed by “Local Chapter Leads” from within the local community.
As crypto and Web3 technology and their applications progress at a fast pace, we identified the need for smaller local groups where people can come together to learn, and help each other both online and offline. These local chapters are where you can meet, form new friends in the crypto world, and find answers and advice for any questions you have about investing, working in crypto or if you’re just a curious soul who wants to learn more.
Local Chapters will come together every month to discuss or learn about topics and themes that are of interest to you, the members of this community. In addition to this, we also get together online on our Discord server here - https://bit.ly/DCXcommunity
Note: The Meetup is free, but invite only!
