Thank you for the feedback, Thomas. Last year was our pilot cohort and we've been working hard to improve all aspects of the program (targeted promotion, selection process, pre-program, program content, engagement with funders throughout the process, program evaluation, post-program support, etc). Our graduates from last year have secured around $500,000 in funding so far and we do offer regular mentoring calls to all of them. The goal of this Manifund project is for us to be able to provide direct seed funding so that graduates are less dependent on quickly securing funding from other sources.
