#############################################

We will contribute from three aspects;

We can contribute by sharing our knowledge and experience in this area.

* 2: Community Growth:

We will focus on the growth of "ICON Community". We will utilize our EOS links to expand our reach and grow ICON Community. We will do this by;

* organizing Meetups
* contacting Universities and Youth
* arranging Seminars and Conferences
* using Social Media channels more aggressively


* 3:  Mass Market Adoption:

Mass market adoption is the key for the success of public Blockchain. To ensure Mass Market Adoption it has to be;

* user Friendly,
* public Friendly,
* enterprise Friendly, and even
* government Friendly

We want to focus on e-Governance. We believe that e-Governance related DApps can ensure Mass Market Adoption. One project we have in our mind is to integrate a Blockchain ID (ICX Public Address) with National ID (which is accepted by Governments).

If we do this then National IDs will become a wallet itself. This ensures that every citizen can have a Blockchain Identity and it opens up a whole new world of opportunities.
