Solution Backdrop:

Consistent awareness growth of Cardano is most effective when collaborating with quality partners. Quality partners always have a multiplier effect.

This is proven by our funded theory in the form of a Fund10 proposal in collaboration with one of the top three universities in Indonesia, Gadjah Mada University (UGM).

One result from the above is a Fund13 joint proposal to integrate Generative AI and Cardano to UGM’s indigenous ventilator that has sales of $600.000 to $1.700.000 and is currently being offered and distributed to Japan through Adex Aile Co.,Ltd. Japan.

C3ETH (Eastern Town Hall) Indonesia now brings:

1. Kompas Gramedia, besides the largest publication in Indonesia with;
2. More than 150 brands of print, online, and broadcast media
3. With 7 publishers and more than 120 store networks are also
4. Educating through 1 university, 1 vocational, and 6 institutions
5. Institute of Technology Bandung, one of the top three universities in Indonesia that has 548K Insta followers, 180K YouTube followers and 928K X followers

Proposed Solution:

Pilot a professional series of Web3 Blockchain & Crypto programs -as per Kompas Gramedia standards- to create engagement and awareness of Cardano that caters to the targeted city of Bandung as one of UNESCO’s Creative Cities.

With program key characteristics being:

1. Young - as per Statista; 58.7% of Indonesia crypto holders are between 18-24
2. Fun - ages between 18-24 are a in psychological state of optimism and creativity
3. Active - ages between 18-24 are in a explorative state of life
4. Progressive - ages between 18-24 have tendency to prioritize self-sufficiency

Resulting in a pilot that consists of these following mediums:

• 6 (six) 30-minute talk shows - 2 shows per month for 3 months
• Targeted listener/viewership metrics: 1.000
• Published on: YouTube, Radio, IG
• Publication value due to collab with Kompas: $6.274,72

• Bilal Hammerman a Cardano enthusiast & largest individual ADA whale in Indonesia
• Targeted local influencers are (not limited to);
• Guzman Sige with +54.000 insta followers

• Hype which is meant to cater to the young and fun demography
• Outcome of this formats translates into a fun, educating and engaging program with intended examples can be viewed here;
• Talkshow with Petronas SRT Team Principal 
• Talkshow with the film cast of “12 Cerita Glen Anggara”
• Talk show topics will focus on:
• Expanding on Cardano RWA applications such as: specific emphasis on Book.io, Cardano Beam, GameChanger, Paima, NEWM, WMT, Cornucopias etc.
• Expanding on Cardano tokens and trading such as: “Why are some tokens valuable?”, “How to trade tokens on DEXes?”, “How to farm on MinSwap?”, etc.
• Expanding on Cardano NFT usage and markets such as: ClayNation, SpaceBudz, Deadpxlz, NMKR, JPGStore etc.

Resulting in a ad spots that is consistently publicized daily with format:

Total Budget and Cost: $14.044,8 (rupiah to dollar rate of $0.000066)

Total Ask in ADA (at anticipative rate of 0.32): ₳43.890

[VALUE FOR MONEY] How does the cost of the project represent value for money for the Cardano ecosystem?

In terms of awareness through earned media:

1. Kompas Gramedia Group Bandung has launched hundreds of numerous pilots and programs with similar formats which has the following proven metrics:
2. Program: Collab with Antara News Agency Indonesia
3. Media viewership: 309.000
4. Social media exposure: 6.400
5. Social media exposure value: $55.318,56
6. Media exposure: 8 media for 4 (four) months
7. Media exposure value: $1.902,96
8. Were to be done independently without the partnership of Kompas Gramedia Group, Cardano/Catalyst would have needed to expend a total value of: $140.348,20 per similar program or roughly 8X the total amount spent by partners above

In terms number of potential collaborations/partnerships:

1. By partnering with Kompas Gramedia Group Bandung opens avenues of future collaborations/partnerships with their larger ecosystem which independently would have taken more time and effort. Kompas Gramedia larger ecosystem such as:
2. Their expansive publication collections spanning various genres created by 7 publishers and more than 120 store networks which are exploring to integrate Web3/blockchain solutions. Book.io can play a leading role
3. Their attempt into Web3, Kogi NFT which has not met expectations. NMKR.io can play a leading role
4. Their attempt into Web 2.5 Media, Medio which has not met expectations. Book.io can play a leading role
5. By partnering with Kompas Gramedia Group Banding, collaboration with one of the top 3 universities in Indonesia, Institute of Technology Bandung, allowed Cardano/Catalyst to easily form a partnership with them which independently would have taken more time and effort. Allowing access to future collaboration to introduce and implement Cardano tech to further enhance the city of Bandung’s position as UNESCO Creative City

In terms of budget asked comparison:

1. Eastern Town Hall Indonesia’s Catalyst School Indonesia proposal in collaboration with Gadjah Mada University which asked funding of ₳23.421,00 (at anticipative rate of 0.29) resulted to having a discussion to submit a collaborative proposal for UGM’s ventilator project mentioned as as per “Solution Backdrop” section
2. “Kompas Gramedia Web3 Blockchain & Crypto Pilot Program” which is asking funding of ₳48.015 will allow more avenues of potential collaboration in the future for it involves 3 (three) clear large scale adoption as mentioned in potential collaboration above. Outpacing Eastern Town Hall Indonesia Catalyst School Indonesia proposal by 3 to 1 in terms of quantity and dwarfing it in terms of mass adoption potential Cardano will receive

In terms value of workforce to projected output:

1. Lowest minimum wage for US citizens is USD $7.25 per hour under the same assumption same work hours of their Indonesian counterparts = USD $1.334 per month = IDR 20.276.800 per month or 4X that of Jakarta's and 10.6X of Jogjakarta (this is not considering Jakarta is the second highest minimum wage in Indonesia)
2. Lowest minimum wage for EU citizens is €399 under the same assumption same work hours of their Indonesian counterparts = USD $437,66 per month = IDR 6.652.432 per month or 1.35X that of Jakarta's and 3.5X of Jogjakarta (this is not considering Jakarta is the second highest minimum wage in Indonesia)
