+
+## Deliverables
+
+Ongoing meetups & workshops in our own venue (Sofia Bulgaria), then we plan to use https://bucharest.techhub.com/ (Bucharest) or  CITY College (Thessaloniki, Greece)
+Questions are approached technically from a computer science point of view, mathematically, or economically.
+Economics plays a big role and we invite economic experts to participate and speak.
+We also invite the most interesting companies within these fields to gather relevant experts and facilitate debates.
+
+## Development Roadmap
+
+- Tickets: $0. We don't plan to sell tickets for this community events.
+- Confirmed Venue (we confirm our venue in Sofia, it's owned by us)
+- Each meetup is recorded & photographed. if anyone doesn't want to appear in photos they can put a yellow sticker on their clothes.
+- We can handle 20-30 people easily
+- Funding: we will try to get the venues for free (the one in Sofia is free as it's ours)
+- Quality Pizza (not Dominos!) & quality beer will likely cost ~50-100 USD per event depending on how many people decide to participate
+- We can also make t-shirts with filecoin logo. A quality t-shirt with a printed logo is around $10, we can also get super-quality t-shirts with $15. for 20 participants that's $200 in budget.
+- $ for marketing the event until places are filled
+- we do it in a not for profit way, all the funds that remain will go into the next meetup budget.
