This multi-city roadshow marks a return to on-ground activation for Bitget in India, building on the success of its 2023 “India Learns Crypto” initiative. That campaign launched with packed meetups in Delhi and Mumbai, drawing hundreds of attendees and leading to sustained community interest in educational forums. The Delhi session alone brought together over 140 participants, while the Mumbai event hosted over 300. Featuring a blend of speaker panels, partner collaborations, and open Q&A, the series gained traction as a trusted forum for blockchain learning.
