We aim to bring together around close to 350 attendees along with 3k atteendees of IBW under one roof, including the ecosystem parachain teams, to showcase projects and engage with both the Indian/Global community and leave a long lasting impact.
Our team recognizes the potential synergy between the Polkadot ecosystem and the dynamic blockchain community gathering for ETHIndia and IBW.

We've observed the growing enthusiasm for blockchain technology in India and the immense success of our previous event i.e <a href="https://youtu.be/R4PQbaMDlEQ?si=vKDY_UCcvVkauCH1">Polkadot Now India.</a>
These factors, combined with the prominent status of <a href="https://ethindia.co/">ETHIndia</a> and <a href="https://indiablockchainweek.com/">IBW</a> by Hashed (organizers of Korea Blockchain Week), have driven us to introduce Polkadot Pulse 1.0. The event's goal is to attract developers, researchers, media, investors, and other stakeholders, fostering knowledge sharing and forging new collaborations within the Polkadot ecosystem.

Note : This proposal was initially supposed to go through Events Bounty, however we have received a response from events bounty team stating Events Bounty will be unavailable to process any funds until new set of curators are onboarded, given the timeline of the already <a href="https://x.com/PolkadotNowInd/status/1709232285545840918?s=20">announced </a>event we can't afford to wait anymore and without further delay we are proceeding with Treasury Funding.
Due to time constraints, we will expedite the submission of this proposal on-chain.
Thanks for understanding the urgency and we look forward to everyone support to make this happen.

Note : We were supposed to go through events bounty however there seems to be some issue with the application form (Form 1) of extra ordinary events, Form 1 is currently inactive hence leaves us of no choice other than taking treasury route since we have very less time for preparation and we cant afford to delay anymore.
