POLKADOT IRL CAMPAIGN #2 - BERLIN TAXIS

THE PROPOSAL

After a successful proof of concept, we are ready to take over the city of Berlin with our Polkadot branded taxis.

With a population of 3.85M people, Berlin is a major hub for startups and tech companies as well as the home of the BΓΆrse Berlin aka Berlin Stock exchange.

Advertising blockchain technology is widely accepted in Berlin and we have secured an agency with plenty of experience deploying campaigns in this field.


THE CAMPAIGN

3 Months in duration

70 taxis branded with the Polkadot name, logo and QR code which will lead directly to polkadot.network

70 taxi headrest plaques located inside the vehicle with the same attributes as above.

Tentative start date of March 8th, 2024.

*Upon completion of the campaign, we will have the option to renew for another 3 months without the cost of re-branding the vehicles.

Tech Companies / Startups
Conference Attendees - Devops Days, AWS Summit, Dappcon 2024 will all be taking place during this timeframe

It's an excellent idea to give Polkadot more attention. And it starts with this kind of marketing to get into people's subconscious and attract new users over a long period. Your name needs to be heard or seen to get people interested. I like this and I think this type of advertising should be continued and more ideas like this should be implemented in the long run. Show people who you are and then seek you out over time because they have subconsciously seen you somewhere.

We should go for it!

If the proposal passes ask the graphic designer not modify the original Polkadot logo. In the pictures of the taxis there is a space which separates Pol kadot at the junction of the door
