Cardano Project Catalyst Working Groups
What is Project Catalyst?
Project Catalyst is the world’s largest decentralised grant funding platform for solving real-world challenges. At the start of each funding round, the Cardano community proposes ideas to solve challenges within the blockchain ecosystem and the wider world.
The community then evaluates and votes on which technical, business, creative, and community projects will receive funding.
What are Catalyst Working Groups?
Catalyst Community Working Groups (CWG’s) are collaborative workshops taking place across the globe within the Cardano community focused on specific aspects of ecosystem development.
Community and grassroots innovation is at the heart of the workshops. The London UK workshop we will be focusing on Catalyst Strategic Funding Priorities. Discussing and identifying key innovation areas for funding, based on data-driven analysis of past initiatives and future needs.
