Tezos is a technology for deploying a blockchain capable of modifying its own set of rules with minimal disruption to the network through an on-chain governance model. Tezos supports smart contracts and offers a platform to build decentralized applications. We imagine a world where blockchain becomes an integral part of the lives of the masses is only possible when the community comes forward to build the infrastructure to drive mass adoption.

We realize the importance of engaging with developers early on in their development journey and want to be able to provide them with a way to both contribute to open-source and help grow the Tezos ecosystem while being appropriately rewarded for their efforts.

Since its inception, Tezos has always valued its open-source roots, striving to recognize and reward the community for contributions to the ecosystem. This is why the Tezos India Foundation launched our most impactful initiative yet in association with Devfolio to spread the joy of building on Tezos and grow the ecosystem. 10 talented developers based in India were selected from 1400+ for an 8-week intensive mentor-led program as part of the Tezos India Fellowship.
