Partisia Blockchain Foundation Grants Program

How to apply

The application process is simple. The challenging but rewarding part is to develop an idea that uses Partisia’s value proposition of privacy, interoperability, and scalability and tie that into a working business model.

If you need help with any of the questions, technical implementations, or brainstorming ideas, please get in touch with us on our Discord server using the
#dev-support ticket function, or review our development documentation on Medium and Gitlab.

Below are the details in the grant proposal we would expect to see. Please provide as much detail as possible. Once complete, submit your proposal by emailing us at build@partisiablockchain.com.
