What would success look like in the next 6 weeks?

A prototype built? A trip taken? A plan in motion? A feature made?

What do you hope this project/idea/opportunity helps you build or unlock long-term?

Where is this going? What kind of trajectory are you on?

What size grant are you applying for (up to €1,000)?

We would encourage you to apply only for as much funding as you need! If you apply now for less than €1000, you can re-apply later for additional funding up to a total of €1000.

How will you use the grant money?

What do you plan to buy? What are the expected expenses? How much money will you allocate to each aspect? Feel free to include links to specific things you plan to buy.

What else do you most need help with?

Mentorship, feedback, introductions - let us know!
