Coding Camp 2 success | Goals for 2023 | Local GDP reached $14,500 | Instagrant winners | Mentor Introductions

Solana Superteam Vietnam is a community for people who are interested in developing their careers in Web3 as well as the Solana ecosystem. Our community is mainly on Discord and has official announcement channels on Telegram Twitter and Facebook.

Solana Superteam Community started in India and has expanded to Vietnam, Germany, and Turkey. We are currently having around 500 Supterteam official members all over the world and growing rapidly.

In 2022, Solana Superteam Vietnam successfully organized Solana Coding Camp 2 for Vietnamese developers, completed in December. Let’s take a look at the impressive highlights of coding camp 2.

Now that we’ve had a successful coding camp and have expanded our community, we have a few goals for Q1 of 2023.

Goal 1: Winning Global Hackathon in Q1

We want to help take the 51 teams that competed in the coding camp hackathon and continue nurturing them with mentors so they can compete in Solana's Global Hackathon where there are more than $5M in prize pools and access to the biggest VCs and companies in the world. New teams and projects are also welcomed and we will provide support both online and with our offline build stations in Ha Noi and HCMC.

Goal 2: Increasing community GDP

The goal is to give out as many meaningful grants as possible by helping the Vietnamese developer community contribute to a thriving Solana ecosystem. For more information or examples of grants, see examples below.

Official information and update on the Global Hackathon will be updated on this site.

Here are a few important highlights for our members

Right after the Global Hackathon, all submitted projects will be joining VC Demo Day on 25/03/2023 hosted by Solana Superteam Vietnam and our partners to meet and pitch ideas to most reputable VCs in our network. More information will be updated soon to our members on Discord.

Let’s update our key metrics for community growth to date in December 2022.

Our community GPD is $USDC 14,500 from 10 accepted grants. Our goal in 2023 is to grow GDP to $1M by grant and bounty program. See 10 accepted grants for Vietnam here.

Since the grant and bounty program is our key focus this year to help everyone in our community to really learn and earn in the Solana ecosystem, let’s deep dive into how the program works and the best practices to apply for grant and bounty.

You can find all information about Instagrant program in the article below. The maximum amount for each grant is $USDC 10,000. You can apply grants for building tools, writing, expanding the community, etc.

We also have an article about how to apply for Instagrant better that you can find here. If you have any questions or need support or look for teammates to apply for grants together, let’s chat on channel #👯│find-collaborators on Discord.

In order to support you better, we will soon share with everyone a list of grant ideas that are accepted by the Solana Foundation including dev and non-dev ideas. If you’re still not sure whether your grant idea is suitable, let's direct message k2#0129 for support.
