Cardano Japan IdeaFest Fund 12
Cardano Japan is excited to announce our IdeaFest events for Catalyst Fund 12, bridging the Japanese Cardano community with international projects through bilingual pitch sessions.
About the Events
These bilingual pitch events are designed to connect international Catalyst Fund 12 proposers with the Japanese Cardano community. Organized by three Cardano ambassadors — Seira, Yuta, and hix — the events feature simultaneous Japanese translation to break down language barriers.
Event Format
Each presentation follows a structured format:
- 3 minutes for project presentation
- 3 minutes for Q&A with the audience
- Events are conducted via Zoom with livestreaming on YouTube and X
Connecting Communities
The IdeaFest events address a critical need in the Cardano ecosystem: ensuring that non-English-speaking communities can fully participate in Catalyst funding decisions. By providing professional interpretation services, we enable the Japanese community to:
- Hear directly from international project proposers
- Ask questions in their native language
- Make informed voting decisions based on complete understanding
Why This Matters
Language barriers should never prevent community members from participating in governance and funding decisions. These events demonstrate the power of community-driven initiatives to create a more inclusive and accessible Cardano ecosystem.
We encourage all Japanese Cardano community members to join these events and engage directly with Catalyst F12 proposers.
