​​CollabTech Gitcoin Round in GG21

Looking for funding?

RnDAO is organizing a Quadratic Funding round for CollabTech projects in partnership with Gitcoin!

Apply before August 5th to have your project considered for match funding with $30k available in USDC on Arbitrum.

What’s CollabTech?

Organizations on-chain, the evolution of B2B SaaS, and building the future of work:

  • Projects advancing reputation
  • Governance & decision making
  • Operations (accounting, sales automation, inventory management, talent, etc.)
  • Community and contributor tooling

Each project accepted into the round will be able to raise donations from their community and be eligible for match funding from our $30k pool, provided they meet their β€œThreshold”.

How do Thresholds work?

Akin to Kickstarter, projects need to declare the minimum amount of funding they’ll need to deliver value, and those not meeting the threshold will only receive donations (no match funding).

How to apply? Applications will be open from 24th July to 5th August for guaranteed review before the round starts. Apply here.

The donation period will be open from 7th to 20th of August.

Join the RnDAO discord to ask any questions you might have.

A New Apps Landscape

As organizations are dealing with increasing amounts of data and complexity, selecting the right tools is crucial to process this information and facilitate productive discussion.

Coming out of last month's research, we’re excited to present our second comprehensive apps landscape showcasing top tools for Sensemaking and Deliberation!

Last month we shared our first apps landscape featuring communication & knowledge-sharing apps. Check it out if you missed it!
