DevFolio is open to accept early applications for its second edition of Devfolio Ethereum India Fellowship . The fellowship is an eight week stretched mentoring program as an effort to educate the upcoming generation of blockchain enthusiasts in India to ‘discover, learn and engage'' with Ethereum. The fellowship is sponsored by the Ethereum Foundation. Thirty fellows will be selected from across India to be part of the journey.

The fellowship is divided into two tracks. While track1 is for the beginners, Track2 is helpful for advanced learners. Track 1 will help Web2 developers to upgrade their skills to Web3. 20 such developers with no prior experience with Ethereum will be selected who will form groups of 2 or 3 with a mentor. Eight weeks will be divided into three parts- Learn, Explore and Build. The associated payout over the course of the program is $1000.

Track 2 will allow ten Web3 developers who will be lucky enough to get 1:1 mentoring from the industry experts. The associated payout over the course of the program is $2000.
