Last week was spent finalizing service agreements and scheduling kick-off calls with the various teams and individuals who received Q2 funding from the ICF. This is the first quarter that utilized our newly reformulated funding program, including participation of the inaugural Technical Advisory Board. It was also the first batch of Funding approved by our recently expanded Foundation Council. In conjunction with this quarter’s funding announcement, we’re also excited to start publishing regular quarterly Financial Transparency Reports, which should give insight into the ICF’s holdings and funding capacity going forward.
Details are still being finalized for a handful of Q2 funding recipients, which will be announced imminently, so keep an eye out for follow-up posts detailing these exciting initiatives. The ICF Funding team is also drafting a post on its current ecosystem priorities as a public Request For Proposals to be released soon. And if you’re interested in submitting a proposal for the Q3 funding cycle, please do so before August 31st
