[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

We will develop a segmented and specialized platform to connect companies and projects with highly qualified professionals with skills and competences in blockchain, DeFi, Crypto, Web3, Smart Contracts, NFTs, Metaverse and many programming languages used in blockchain.

A powerful environment to find professionals with multiple search options and filters such as:

• Location
• Skills
• Competencies
• Industry/sector
• Language
• Job types
• Job title
• Educational institution
• Courses
• Companies

[IMPACT] How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

We believe that a niche environment specialized in Web3 talent will bring a lot of engagement with these users and will attract companies interested in finding, hiring and relating to these people.

We observed that niche environments form large tribes that connect with the target audience and thus attract greater engagement in the use of the platform, bringing real gains and a lot of value to the entire market.

Success for this project can be defined:

• Number of talents founded
