Grant Budget Structure & Milestones

Each project must present a structured grant budget and define four (4) key milestones, each with clear deliverables, measurable success criteria, and an allocated budget. This ensures transparency, accountability, and effective resource allocation. A typical grant structure includes an upfront payment of up to 20%, provided at the start of the project to cover initial development costs, while the remaining grant amount is tied to the successful completion of quantifiable milestones with well- defined KPIs and deliverables. Success metrics may include user adoption, performance improvements, developer engagement, or technical development milestones, depending on the project's stage. By aligning payments with measurable outcomes, this structure ensures efficient fund distribution, project accountability, and long-term success.

Milestone Format (Upto 4)

  • Milestone Name: A short, clear title describing the milestone's focus (e.g. Smart Contract Development & Initial Audit).
  • Description: A summary of the key activities and goals for the milestone (e.g. Develop, test, and audit).
  • Deliverables & Success Metrics/KPIs: Tangible outputs that demonstrate milestone completion and measurable indicators that define a successful milestone.
  • Estimated Completion Date: The expected completion date for the milestone.
  • Amount Requested: The grant amount that is needed to for this milestone.
