Current draft of the **Incubator DAO** mandate is:  
**Traction:** Drive dapps to reach 10K MAU. Target products that accelerate crypto adoption.  
**Talent:** Identify & connect talent to projects. Support talented founders.  
**Treasury:** Guide best practices in fundraising. Introduce projects to network of investors.

Still a little bit of a work in progress - but we seem to be getting good feedback on it.

> 1. **500 Launches ($20M).** Applications of each launch must have prototyped a feature-full product. Harmony helps incubate these founding teams with product development, fundraising, and talent recruit. We recommend a $50K equity-free contribution each: $10K after launching a feature-complete product on our testnet, $10K after mainnet launch, $10K after forming a DAO with its community, and $20K for after 10K users.

Will Incubator DAO manage these 500 releases? or will it be another demand?

correct @Biosensei @Adonis , that was a “proposed” link and dates  
“all dates and links were hypothetical to help the initial team to set up the Incubator DAO.”

let´s wait for feedback from the team involved in bootstrap the incubator DAO

Few questions

1. how much funding does the Incubator DAO have?
2. what is the primary tool for conversations? This forum? Discord?
3. when will the DAO be on Aragon?
4. how are tasks coordinated? Any tool?
5. How are meeting scheduled? And when?
6. What are roles and responsibilities (beyond “governor” or “advisor”)?

The Discord channel for the Incubator DAO within Harmony’s Discord is not active; nor is this subforum. Where can one get updates? Who should I be directly reaching out to just to get information?

this a good point, we must have an all DAO meeting and ensure that WE are utilizing funds accordingly and after all the purpose is to have a positive effect on Harmony Protocol, in a sense we have to police ourselves and back to your point @Candor i have been on a DAO for 3 months and have not heard or seen this group… @Maffaz @frwrdslosh

Similar tumbleweeds here [Incubator DAO Formation](https://talk.harmony.one/t/incubator-dao-formation/5807)

Strange thing is they have been paid for something completely unknown…

All I see is no replies and empty timesheets.

Also no reply to the offer of funding.

Anyhow, doesn’t look like this dao is involved in harmony anymore and from what I can see, apart from the 2 posts here and on twitter, never have been…
