Boson Protocol Ecosystem Grants

About the program

Boson Protocol’s $5 million Grants Program is an initiative designed to reward innovation and to incentivize the thinkers and doers who will help us create an entirely new commerce ecosystem.

We are already equipped to empower a whole new generation of developers and entrepreneurs building on top of the Boson Protocol. We provide full developer documentation and we have also presented a film of an upcoming reference application to give an idea of the sort of dApps you can build using Boson.

Who can apply

Grants are available up to US$50,000 per project and we welcome applications from individuals, companies, teams and research institutions.

While we are happy to accept applications in all areas that will make it easier for future developers and teams to build on the core protocol, we are especially interested in projects working in the following areas:

• dCommerce applications & components
• Metaverse commerce
• Community and ecosystem
• Tooling, developer experience and more

How to apply

• Submit a grant application using this form

Please note that the maximum initial grant available for any project is $50,000 and would ideally be broken down into smaller milestones for delivery.

• All applications will be reviewed by a council of Boson stakeholders, composed of Foundation Board, tech and business teams, investors and advisors.

The council will conduct their decision on a set of criteria and objectives which are included in the questionnaire and are primarily based on:

• Ecosystem impact
• Team profiles and experience
• Needs and challenges
• Measurable milestones and outcomes
• Grant size

The council will make recommendations on the recipients of the ecosystem grants. The final decision on all grants will be approved individually by the Foundation Board.
