Transparency and Funding

Funding

We are immensely proud to announce that our organisation is self-funded by our main partners Rufo Guerreschi and Alexandre Hovarth, underscoring our own deep commitment to the Initiative. The dedication and volunteer efforts of our world-renowned experts have enabled us to achieve critical milestones and advance our projects significantly. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for the generous financial support from the following entities: EIT Digital, ECSEL-JU (two EU governmental agencies). Additionally, we are thankful for the invaluable non-financial assistance from three accelerator programs: Hardware.co (Berlin, 2016), Fintech Fusion (Geneva, 2019), MACH37 (McLean, 2021). This collective support not only fueled our progress but also reinforced the strength and dedication behind our mission.

As we forge ahead, the engagement and financial support of new partners are crucial to the continuation and expansion of our efforts. We invite new entities to join us in this transformative journey. Your support will play a pivotal role in enabling us to reach new heights and achieve broader impact. Partnering with us offers a unique opportunity to contribute directly to visionary initiatives led by top-tier experts. We are eager to welcome new supporters who are passionate about making a tangible difference in the world.

Transparency

Transparency is a fundamental value, embedded at the core of our organisation. We believe that openness in our operations and communications fosters trust and accountability, both essential for building and maintaining strong relationships with our partners and supporters. By clearly sharing our goals, processes, and outcomes, we ensure that all stakeholders are fully informed and can see the direct impact of their contributions. This commitment to transparency not only upholds our integrity but also enhances our collaborative efforts, enabling more effective and sustainable advancements in our initiatives.
