Ecosystem Success Weekly Update - 08/13/2021

Brief Summary:

  • Building the framework for a highly detailed community-driven NEAR official ecosystem map and an accompanying web app
  • Actively working on codifying the handoff criteria and process
  • Fleshing out an ES Landing Page - What we do, our mission/vision, how to work with us
  • Developing a process to get the current sentiment around building on NEAR, accept ecosystem feedback & understanding areas to improve (NPS)

Challenges & Blockers:

  • Handoff - getting random entities dumped without any structure or leading info
    • ES Landing Page will cover our criteria & how to work with us in detail
    • With the project lifecycle pipeline framework built out this should dwindle
  • Locating and parsing information from disparate ecosystem data sources and NEARians with the institutional knowledge.

Action Items:
