What is the Gaia-X Evangelist Programme ?
The Gaia-X Evangelist Programme is designed to empower passionate individuals who are eager to share their knowledge and enthusiasm about Gaia-X’s mission and vision with the broader community. Evangelists are enthusiastic supporters who spread the word, build community, and help drive engagement and growth. They play a crucial role in expanding the reach of Gaia-X’s message, fostering innovation, and driving the adoption of Gaia-X solutions.
Evangelists promote Gaia-X by promulgating its trust framework and implementation through social media, blogs, podcasts, and events. They also educate others by hosting or participating in workshops, webinars, meetups, and conferences. Additionally, they contribute by providing feedback and suggestions to improve Gaia-X specifications and implementations.
