Decentralized Impact Incubator 2018

The Decentralized Impact Incubator is a 6-week program to ideate and prototype blockchain-based solutions to global social and environmental challenges. During the period, participants from around the world will gather to form teams, design business models, draft proposals and code. Teams need to pass through weekly checkpoints and are guided by mentors throughout the process. Winning projects will receive grants to support continued development. The scope of these challenges includes early-stage ideas for a product/solution, innovative business models, a timeline for sustained development, and if possible, a prototype, but not continuations of projects that are already beyond testing phase. Decentralized Impact Incubator is supported by members of the Blockchain for Social Impact Coalition (BSIC) https://www.blockchainforsocialimpact.com/ __ Tracks for 2018 • Hardware • Democracy • Agriculture • Refugees __ Your Deliverables • Weekly checkpoints • White Paper (optional) • 5-min video demo, showing: - A description of your early stage idea: The challenge of your choice and the overview of your solution. - An explanation of your business model: How does your solution create value and be financially sustainable? - Prototype / Proof-of-concept: A minimum viable product that captures how your product functions. - A timeline for sustained development: Roadmap for project's growth beyond the scope of the incubator. __ For more details, please visit https://www.blockchainforsocialimpact.com/incubator
