With the Code8 boot camp, Tezos India aims to stimulate community growth and pave the way for a better future for crypto enthusiast students and youngsters.” 

The sessions in the bootcamp will be delivered by the speakers throughout the bootcamp both theoretically (Using PPTs) and practically (hands-on experience based projects). The students are expected to take any relevant idea from any domain, and solutions built using Tezos platform have to be submitted. Interestingly, the bootcamp will also act as a platform for hiring interns, pre-placement opportunities can also be provided based on the technical experience of the relevant members in the bootcamp. 

Diwakar Arodiya, Co-Founder of Code8 said, “Through in-depth theoretical approach and hands-on demonstration on the Tezos platform, understanding of blockchain technology will be made easier. Our association with Tezos India is set to go beyond this event and this can be the stepping stone for a larger collaboration and growth in the long run.” In the months to come, Tezos India and Code8 vow to cater to the needs of the students in the blockchain domain and introduce the Tezos platform to the students on a wider scale.
