Purpose:

The Nym Community Grants Program is designed to provide financial support and resources to individuals and teams who are passionate about building privacy-focused solutions and want to leverage the Nym tech stack.

Whether you're an experienced developer, a creative designer, or an enthusiastic researcher, this program offers an opportunity for you to turn your ideas into reality and make a lasting impact on the Nym ecosystem.

Join us in building a more resilient and privacy-conscious world!

Focus:

During the initial program batches, we will introduce specific Request for Proposals (RFPs) that we encourage our community members to participate in as we will prioritize them for funding. Additionally, we will request grantees to prioritize content creation through our “Open Grants”, particularly in enhancing our documentation and contributing to the Shipyard Academy.

Program Structure:

Our grants program operates on a rolling basis, allowing for continuous submissions and review of grant applications throughout the year. We believe in providing flexibility and ongoing opportunities for individuals and teams to participate in the program.

Selection and evaluation criteria

As part of our grants program, we have, through the community grants application form, established specific criteria that will be thoroughly evaluated by our team for every application received. We are committed to conducting a comprehensive review of each submission to ensure fairness and impartiality.
