Web3 goes to school in India Algorand announces game changing partnershipsThe Algorand Foundation, the organization focused on growing the ecosystem for the world’s most advanced, secure, and reliable layer-1 blockchain, has recently announced broad-reaching partnerships in India.
The Foundation is committed to promoting job opportunities and solutions that are tailored to India’s dynamic population as a result of the fact that India will soon overtake China as the nation with the most people in its population.
Algorand’s partnerships with innovation hubs and universities
The Algorand Foundation has partnered with T-Hub, India’s premier innovation hub, with over 600 corporate partners, including Intel, AWS, Microsoft, and Cisco.
This alliance will assist both new and existing businesses in the development of blockchain-based solutions that have a high potential impact and are scalable.
The Chief Executive Officer of T-Hub, M.S. Rao, said that this alliance would assist their ecosystem in scaling worldwide and gaining access to funding from throughout the globe.
The Algorand Foundation has also partnered with Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad and the Indian School of Business.
Soon, the Foundation will begin offering faculty development programs, student developer training, as well as a master class series for businesses who are interested in migrating their essential business operations to Web3.
Other commitments
The Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative are launching a new Global Climate Resilience Fund with a total of fifty million dollars, and Algorand will participate in the fund as a technology partner.
The Fund, with SEWA as a founding partner, is aimed at helping women micro-entrepreneurs address climate change. SEWA is the largest trade union in India, with over 2.1 million female workers, and has been improving the livelihoods of self-employed women workers for 50 years.
Algorand will support women-led enterprises building solutions to increase financial inclusion and empower SEWA members and low-income working women across India through business accelerator programs and seed investments.
The Fund will, in part, provide assistance to local business owners in connecting with carbon markets and monetizing the carbon credits that are generated as a result of their operations.
Staci Warden, CEO of the Algorand Foundation, joined Hillary Rodham Clinton, former Secretary of State of the United States, and other members of the Clinton Foundation in Ahmedabad to celebrate the launch of the new Fund.
The foundation is deeply committed to ensuring that blockchain lives up to its promise of establishing a more equitable economy in India and around the world, as highlighted by Warden, who spoke on behalf of the foundation.
The recent selection of Anil Kakani as India’s Country Head is what prompted Algorand to concentrate its efforts on that nation.
According to Kakani, the fact that Algorand’s blockchain technology has formed collaborations with some of the most prestigious institutions and companies in India is evidence of its dependability, scalability, and practical use.
The aim of the Foundation is centered on having a lasting influence, and they are prepared to take the spotlight in India and everywhere across the world in order to drive ideas that will change the world.
