Introduction to XRP Asia
On October 4, Ripple and the XRP Ledger Foundation announced the formation of XRP Asia, a new organization focused on promoting the adoption of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Led by Sabrina Tachdjian, a former vice president at the Hedera Foundation, XRP Asia is based in Singapore.
Community Development and Resources
XRP Asia will build on the foundations established by XRPL Korea and XRPL Japan, while also supporting the creation of new communities in major Asian cities and development hubs. The organization plans to develop scalable learning resources aimed at easing the process for developers to acquire the skills necessary to build on the XRPL.
Expanding Training and Support Initiatives
In addition to educational resources, XRP Asia will introduce a new system integrator (SI) partner program to extend training to system integrators and development institutions. The organization will also host and support various hackathons, providing new developers with hands-on opportunities to apply their skills.
Support for Startups
XRP Asia will assist startups building products on the XRPL by providing marketing support and connecting founders with XRPL infrastructure and service providers. This initiative aims to foster partnerships and facilitate access to broader incubation projects and funding opportunities within the XRPL ecosystem. As startups grow, XRP Asia intends to help share their founders' entrepreneurial stories, support co-hosted events, and connect them with relevant investors.
