NextOverview

Last updated 2 years ago

There are a number of issues with the current challenge setting process used in the Catalyst ecosystem. In this documentation you will find a break down of the current process, analysis on different ways to do categorisation, which attributes are preferable and more effective and suggestions towards an improved funding categorisation approach.

Contents

  • Approaches - Analysis looking at the different approaches for idea based funding categorisations and how they impact the funding process to determine which approaches are more desirable.

  • Advantages of Suggested Idea Categories - A list of all of the advantages of using the suggested idea funding categories.

  • Analysis - Analysing different factors, dynamics and approaches relevant for idea categorisations.

  • Experimental Categories Analysis - Analysis for understanding why a suggested experimental category can be introduced and what problems it could help solve.
