Enabling communities for Emerging technologies
An introduction to Inblox Events
Fueling growth with community building
Building communities around technology needs a missionary-like zeal — to bring together a bunch of people who believe in something. There is a very perceptive need to reach out to believers, who choose to rally around a subject, a technology or a company (or companies), and take it upon themselves to spread the word and grow the community.
This need and growth get fueled through sustained efforts in three different areas:
- Establishing the credibility of technology, protocol or brand
- Increasing community presence through regular interactions either offline or online, and
- Enabling individual communities with intellectual property from time to time, to establish an all-round technology leadership and niche.
The challenges at hand
Organizations working in emerging technologies, such as cryptocurrency and blockchain, have some unique challenges:
- They are all essentially startups with some degree of funding or maybe not.
- These startups need to make the above-mentioned efforts to establish their credibility, brand, followers by means of conducting regular community meetups, events, training programs, and relation-building exercises.
- These can be a very challenging proposition —
- starting with finding the right place to conduct meetups/events,
- finding the right crowd to reach out to, and make sustained efforts to do it all the time, every time,
- Arranging and executing digital and traditional media outreach,
- coordinating between multiple agencies handling these different functions.
- All this while ensuring that the product or service that is on the offer, is developing as per the planned roadmap.
- There are many agencies in India that can conduct meetups and events but very few among them really understand the technologies, subject matter or the end objectives.
Enter — inblox.events
At Inblox Events, we fill the gap which other companies in similar fields cannot fill.
We are an organization with a bunch of technologists, blockchain and emerging tech professionals, great marketeers and networkers, media and advertising personnel and indulging community builders. We understand and believe in building networks and communities.
These brilliant individuals who have got-together as a team, are passionate about enabling the emerging tech ecosystem, build the right products and services for the businesses as well as the end-users, and add significantly to the value chains on both the sides, the builders as well as the consumers.
What do we do
We are a business vertical within Inblox Network (read more about it here), which focuses on providing the time and space needed by emerging tech brands and the community at large to — Meet, Learn, Network and Grow together.
We offer infrastructure-as-a-service for organizing world-class brand and consumer engagement programs involving diligent planning, targeted outreach, and a water-tight and robust execution.
It runs on a philosophy of building an open community of Blockchain and emerging tech enthusiasts coming together and contributing to the technology.
The following is what we do:
1. Meetups — Our aim is to not only provide the time and space needed by the community to learn and network from and with each other but also ensure our partners get the right kind of audience to cultivate and build a brand identity. We will be doing this in both the online and the offline methodologies.
2. Masterclasses/workshops — We aim to achieve this by conducting frequent masterclasses and workshops in various aspects of technology and on multiple platforms, by bringing best-in-class professionals to interact and teach aspiring developers, entrepreneurs, and corporate professionals. The most effective method we believe is an instructor-led-class, which we will conduct using offline as well as online methodologies.
3. Night events — We will engage in organizing occasional night events which will have talks and discussions in a tinge of a casual atmosphere without losing sight of the agenda to help build partner and community purpose.
4. Mega-events — We will organize large immersive events that will focus on enhancing community activity and business relations, by delivering mega experiences while growing the community at the grass-root level.
Our Vision
By the end of 2020, we aim to become the most sought after enablers for all community engagement activities in the blockchain and financial technology segment.
The current focus
Our current focus is on Crypto and Blockchain technologies. We aim to work towards mainstreaming these in the country in a big way. While one of the divisions of Inblox is working on a blockchain product itself, the events division will be working to enable the masses through online and offline methods of engagement.
