Description
ValleyDAO is a global and open community that funds and collectively incubates academic and independent research projects in synthetic biology. We help researchers maximize the impact of their work through our incentivised expert community that helps in taking your research results beyond the bench and into the real world. We offer between 50-250k in funding for translational academic and independent research projects.
Our vision is to accelerate the development and adoption of climate-oriented synthetic biology research by utilizing collective intelligence - or in other words - by harnessing the expertise and network of our community members. One of the primary reasons of creating ValleyDAO’s community is to support the research projects that apply for funding. The skilled community members are paired with individual projects depending on the members’ expertise and the needs of the projects. For instance, a business developer may be paired with a research project in need of commercialization assessment and market research. Applying researchers can also get connected with industry professionals directly and collaborate with other researchers in the community. (Learn more here.)
