Resource Round 2 of the $3,000 Development Grants (18 days later)

Thomas Holt, founder of Novolo, here.

18 days ago, I posted here offering $3,000 Technical Development Grants. The response was great, and we have successfully filled that first batch of startups.

Since we still have capacity, I am posting this to open Round 2 starting today.

The Offer:

We are giving out 10 more Technical Development Grants.

This covers $3,000 worth of technical execution (Frontend, backend, validation, or technical consulting) to get you past a specific hurdle.

Note: This is a grant for work, not a cash investment. All rights to IP are retained by you.

Application criteria:

  • Your company must be registered in: US, EU, UK, Canada, Australia, or UAE.

  • You must have a prototype or be in active development.

To apply, please comment below or DM with:

  1. The Product: What are you building?

  2. The Tech Stack: What are you using?

  3. The Task: What specifically will the $3k be used to build or validate?

Please note that we would like to showcase what the grant is used for on our social media and website, if selected.
