We are happy to propose a strategic partnership with [Politecnico di Milano](https://www.polimi.it/en)’s Blockchain & Web3 Observatory for 2025 to lead blockchain research, institutional engagement, and strategic growth across Europe in 2025.
**The intended audience is Web3 companies and institutional stakeholders — not students.**

According to the prestigious QS 2025 ranking, the Politecnico di Milano is the 1st University of Italy and the 21st in the world for Engineering and Technology ([Politecnico's figures](https://www.polimi.it/en/the-politecnico/our-figures)).

Its [Blockchain & Web3 Observatory](https://www.web3.polimi.it/) was established in 2017, and has become a pivotal force in the European Web3 landscape. Hosted within Politecnico di Milano, it plays a leading role in promoting blockchain adoption, advancing research, and facilitating collaboration between academia, institutions, and industry.

As blockchain technology matures, institutional involvement and structured research are essential to enable widespread and sustainable adoption.

## **Budget Breakdown**

The Politecnico is a public institution and requires a legally recognized entity to handle the payment of the sponsorship fee. For this reason, we will utilize the Polkadot Community Foundation (PCF) to execute this payment.

1. Partnership Fee 21,500€
2. Polkadot Community Foundation (or other solution) Fees 12,000€
3. Coordination of the partnership (till end of Jan 2026) and Compliance with Italian Tax regulation \~15,000€

**Important note about payment**

The costs for the partnership (#1) and fees (#2) will be directly sent to the PCF wallet. 

PCF will sign a contract with Blockchain & Web3 Observatory of Politecnico di Milano and execute the payment of the Sponsorship fee.&#x20;
Any exceeded funds will be returned to the Polkadot's Treasury Wallet.

In case, the PCF’s mandate won’t be renewed (refer to OpenGov Proposal #1591 [https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1591](https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1591)) then both cost #1 and #2 will be sent to the proposer’s wallet in order to execute the payment of the sponsorship fee and covering the fees in compliance with Italian Tax regulation.&#x20;

For this initiative to truly benefit the entire ecosystem, we require a clear, long-term commitment and reliable, ongoing support throughout the year; without it, we cannot guarantee this initiative will achieve the impact needed for the entire ecosystem.

We hope all Polkadot's bounties, entities and initiatives will support us in case the community will support this our proposal.&#x20;

### **Who We Are**

Polkadot Italia is a team of four members—Michele ([TheWhiteRabbit](https://x.com/thewhiterabbitM)), Remo ([Anamix](https://x.com/Anamix2000)), Patrizia ([PatriziaM4W](https://x.com/PatriziaM4W)), Damiano ([Yamne](https://x.com/era_italia)).&#x20;
We are Polkadot enthusiasts, ambassadors, and validators dedicated to growing the Polkadot ecosystem in Italy since the begging of 2025. We are trying to achieve this through a long-term strategy focused on creating an Italian Hub which will represent a coordinated environment in providing essential updates, news and other content and assisting the Italian community through community management, consulting, support and moderation (on our social media channels, X, Telegram and YouTube), creating and sharing useful content, providing awareness of the governance process and OpenGov proposals, fostering discussion and active participation, organizing local events and participations, and initiating collaborations with educational institutions and within the ecosystem.

Our social media channels:

X ([https://x.com/PolkadotItalia](https://x.com/PolkadotItalia))

Telegram ([https://t.me/polkadot\_italia\_community](https://t.me/polkadot_italia_community))

YouTube ([https://youtube.com/@Polkadot\_Italia](https://youtube.com/@Polkadot_Italia))

Send a batch of dispatch calls and atomically execute them.
The whole transaction will rollback and fail if any of the calls failed.

May be called from any origin except `None`.

- `calls`: The calls to be dispatched from the same origin. The number of call must not
  exceed the constant: `batched_calls_limit` (available in constant metadata).

If origin is root then the calls are dispatched without checking origin filter. (This
includes bypassing `frame_system::Config::BaseCallFilter`).

## Complexity
- O(C) where C is the number of calls to be batched.
