State of the Superteam: December 2021
A quick overview of what we've been up to in December
Happy New Year folks🎊!
December has been one of the most exciting months yet for our young DAO. It’s time to share all the progress we’ve been making through the month - from exciting launches like Start on Solana to Solana India Fellowship and many more. All in the form of a bite-sized article. Let’s go🚀
The SuperteamDAO is a community of creatives building the talent layer for the Solana Ecosystem. We currently have more than 110 members including devs, designers, memers, marketers, lawyers, and many more 💪. Our community GDP (the amount earned by the community) increased by a whopping 426.42% MoM for the month of December 💸.
Announcements🔊
We're excited to introduce the Solana India Fellowship🇮🇳 — a hands-on 8-week program for the best developers to learn building on Solana. On top of that, each fellow will get a $2,500 stipend for the fellowship as well.
From Gaming to NFTs, and DeFi to DAO tooling, each week will be centered around a theme. With guided quests, exercises, and Q&A sessions led by subject matter experts, the program will help fellows not only build but get exposure to Web3 at large.
The fellowship will end with a Demo Day, which brings an opportunity to receive grants, funding, or otherwise work with the hottest projects in the Solana ecosystem💰.

Project Highlights🧑💻
Our ultimate goal as a community is to deliver impactful work for impactful projects. In the month of December, we have seen some of the stellar projects shipped:
1. Start on Solana:
We launched “Start on Solana” in partnership with QuestBook and the Solana Foundation to create easy-to-learn Rust modules that let anyone get started on their journey in Web3. On completion of each module, an NFT is received and Developers will also be able to find gigs, projects, and jobs within the Solana network directly from the website. 💻
