Nodo +58 - Collaborative Space inside of Fundacion La Salle, Caracas, VE

Hello @jlwaugh

Thanks for being interested :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:, I lost track of this doing another tasks, and we are already using our own brewery space as a coworking space right now to fill the need of it.

Answering:

  • I am the financial advisor of the Fundación La Salle, and there is a need for more engagement there within La Salle collaborators, so the upper management find the proposal a good one and approve it, but they can only collaborate with the space and not the refurbishing.

  • The timeline for renovation is around 2 months.

  • About the lease agreement, it is done as a concession of the space for 3 years.

  • About the space being repurposed, we can setup there some video cameras, but basically I will be taking care personally.

  • The people on our team has being growing exponentially, we already have a discord where we start this year working all our own initiatives together so we can do the cross collaboration even better. So, on Telegram we are about 400 members now, but the real team is on Discord with 50+ members, and we are running 5 DiR right now, so our development team is also growing.

Also I was waiting to have more NCD L1 Developers from Universidad Metropolitana before we continue with this project of a coworking space for crypto enthusiast into NEAR.

We belive than in order to be self sustainable we need:

  1. A space for coworking (yeah, here a lot of people dont have good internet at home, so there is a need to fill)
  2. Several project with dApps like NEAR P2P / MarketPlace Blockjobs / 4MyFuture where if there is a profit it we can receive a funding from them
  3. Different business where the finances are going to be made using DeFi, so we can help with the launching and also receive part of the profit or the main product is directly related with NEAR doing then NEAR Marketing within its own business process like this example
  4. Teaching Blockchain related courses using the coworking space for online and in place student groups
  5. Advising and consulting enterprises regarding blockchain opportunities

We are going to keep developing further the financial plan to be sustainable so in the long run there will not be need for funding from the NF, and we will still be having the resources to keep doing marketing/developing/teaching and supporting the community
