Hello everyone. This is Sota, founder of Astar Network. We are organizing the Polkadot Summit on November 3rd during one of the biggest Blockchain Weeks in the world to educate about the latest developments in Polkadot Network. We will have two tracks, a business and a technical track for a full-day event at the historic Fort Mason Center on the water in San Francisco from 9AM - 5PM. This is the timeline of the summit (WIP)

The motivation behind this initiative is that we think that Polkadot needs more exposure in the US. Having a Polkadot local event during a big conference is effective and needed.

We have confirmed speakers from the following top teams in Dotsama including Parity, Astar, Acala, Parallel, Nodle, Zeitgeist, Oak, Phala, Polkahaus, and Manta, and trying to invite more ecosystem projects.

[Here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JCQCBFXDV84X-6r6EwWhhKTvsoYm-sVkZw7OssKAmlk/edit#heading=h.v6is2ta0txr1) is the proposal. Please feel free to post questions and we are happy to answer them.
