Introducing budding developers to the blockchain ecosystem and helping them develop their own DApps fueling adoption!

Matic in its quest to onboard more developers to the blockchain ecosystem, organized a workshop at IIT Mumbai to introduce participants to the Basics of Blockchain and DApp development. With the abundance of talent in India, Matic hopes to bring more developers to build on the decentralized platforms to put India prominently on the blockchain development map.
