Applications are now open until April 17th, 2023.

PS. just a messenger on this!

WHO SHOULD APPLY?

The Variant Founder Fellowship is designed for emerging founders (pre-seed or earlier) who have an existing idea or prototype and need support bringing it to the next level.

We are looking for founders who are crypto-native and actively contributing to the web3 ecosystem. Fellows can be working on their projects full- or part-time, but with an eye toward jumping in full-time to bring their project to life.

PS. just a messenger on this!

Would someone like to apply for the Gitcoin “Web3 Community & Education” round on behalf of PA? Would be cool to have more funds in the treasury dedicated to education.

Applications completed by today are guaranteed to be reviewed before the round starts, but can be submitted as late as the 21st. Kinda short notice, so maybe this is just a heads-up to get the ball rolling for next time.

Berlin Builders residency (September 2023) - Sponsored by Gitcoin & Protocol labs

https://fundingthecommons.io/berlin-builder-residency-2023

GM everyone,

I came across this really neat residency in Berlin for anyone who’s interested in participating in research toward decentralized funding models. If anyone is interested, hit me up and I can help out with the application details. The requirements are the following:

The number of participants is limited, and applicants should have:

  • EITHER a solid technical background with experience in Web2 or Web3 projects
  • OR a robust generalist technical background (math/CS/engineering) with a keen interest in understanding and working on public goods infrastructure
  • Reviewed a list of potential projects and focus areas for the residency, which includes public goods funding infrastructure, impact evaluators, impact certification systems, and other elements of a public goods funding stack.

Residency Details

To support our attendees, room and board will be covered for the entire duration of the residency. Additionally, scholarships for flight costs will be available based on need through an application process.

Dates

1-30 September 2023. Residents should plan to be in Berlin for the full duration of the residency.

Location

Berlin, Germany. The residency will take place in a comfortable environment conducive to creativity and productivity. We are still in process of securing the venue for the residency. Check back for updates!

Funding

We will cover room and board. Scholarships for flight costs are also available based on need and through an application process.

Areas of Focus

We welcome projects in, but not limited to, the following areas:

  • Public goods funding infrastructure (Quadratic Funding, Retroactive Funding, etc.)
  • Impact evaluators
  • Impact certification systems

Structure

Over the course of the month, we will host a series of workshops, lightning talks, and collaboration sessions designed to facilitate knowledge sharing and foster a sense of community. Expect to leave the residency with a rich network of contacts, profound insights, and meaningful contributions to the public goods funding ecosystem.

Outputs

Residents are expected to contribute to the public goods funding ecosystem through their projects. The output should ideally include an open-source software tool, library, or system, along with a well-documented repository. We also encourage participants to share their knowledge through blog posts or presentations at future Funding the Commons events.

Interested in participating? Apply now as space is limited! Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with priority given to early submissions. Join us and be part of the movement to build a more equitable and sustainable world!
