Solution

A Program where funded Proposers can be matched up with qualified Mentors. To Exchange Information and Experience

Problem:

Catalyst Newcomers can have a hard time on boarding and navigating the Cardano space, because the Ecosystem is complex and it is not always clear whom you should talk to.

[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.

A platform which matches up students and senior catalyst members.

[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.

By having access to a mentor, a student can solve certain problems faster. Also a Mentor helps to focus attention and keeps motivated.

[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?

Shortage of Mentors

I do not know how available Catalyst members are so it is hard to predict, if there will be enough people willing to volunteer as a Mentor.

I do not have a good solution yet. But I will conduct a small poll shortly.

Quality of Mentoring

Because the actual Mentoring sessions will be private there is little oversight.

My Solution is a scoring system for mentors and a set of rules to follow.

[FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed plan, including timeline and key milestones for delivering your proposal.

  • 2 Months Setting up a Framework to manage and match Students and Mentors

    [FEASIBILITY] Please provide a detailed budget breakdown.

[FEASIBILITY] If you are funded, will you return to Catalyst in a later round for further funding? Please explain why / why not.

Yes after the two test Iterations I will come back if there is demand and participation

[AUDITABILITY] Please describe what you will measure to track your project's progress, and how will you measure these?

  • Amount of participating Students and Mentors

  • Results of Feedback survey

    [AUDITABILITY] What does success for this project look like?

A thriving Community of Students and Mentors who inspire each other, get their projects done and maybe build frindships.

[AUDITABILITY] Please provide information on whether this proposal is a continuation of a previously funded project in Catalyst or an entirely new one.

A new one.
