We're here to meet our community! Whether you have been funded by Prototype Fund or want to get to know the people behind the fund, come say hi.
(If you have questions about your application, please attend our "Meet the funders" session at 3pm on Day 2.)
This session is intended as an informal meetup for past and future projects of the Prototype Fund and everyone who wants to discuss various aspects of Free and Open Source Software funding.
About us: The Prototype Fund is a funding program of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) that is managed and evaluated by the Open Knowledge Foundation Germany. Individuals and small teams (of freelance coders, hackers, UX designers and more) can receive funding in order to test their ideas and develop open source applications in the areas of IT Security and Software Infrastructure. We aim to keep innovation processes as well as infrastructures open and accessible.
