  [IMPACT] How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

The cardaLABS Integrator project represents the initial step towards achieving our long-term goals. Our current focus is on talent sourcing/outsourcing, team building, and specializing in industrial applications - initially focused on self-sovereign identity applications (SSI) within the Cardano ecosystem. As we lay the foundation for the project, our primary objective is to assemble a highly skilled DevOps team and establish the necessary expertise to deliver comprehensive Web 3.0 solutions tailored for industrial use cases.

While our project's success metrics will primarily revolve around talent acquisition, team collaboration, and specialization in industrial SSI applications, we recognize that these efforts serve as the building blocks for our long-term ambitions. By talent sourcing/outsourcing and assembling a specialized team, we aim to foster collaboration, innovation, and industry-focused development within Cardano.

As the project progresses, we will continue to refine our approach and measure success based on the following factors:

• Team Building and Talent Acquisition:

• Assess the successful recruitment of specialized architects, business analysts, and DevOps professionals to form a diverse and skilled international team.

• Evaluate the team's ability to collaborate effectively and leverage their expertise in industrial SSI applications.

• Initial Specialization in Industrial SSI Applications:

• Measure the team's proficiency in developing and deploying industrial-grade applications utilizing self-sovereign identity.

• Evaluate the impact of these applications on real-world industrial use cases, showcasing the potential of Cardano within the industry.

• Industrial Collaboration and Partnerships:
