Ecosystem Support Program Office Hours: Signups open now through July 4!

ESP is a branch of the Ethereum Foundation focused on providing grants and a variety of other support to open source projects that benefit Ethereum, particularly public goods such as infrastructure, research and dev tooling.

We've found that a casual conversation can be a surprisingly powerful tool to help clarify a project's vision, brainstorm next steps, or just provide a bit of feedback or perspective. Our standard inquiry process can feel overly formal if you just want to talk, so we're offering office hours as a more direct path.

We're excited to host our next round of calls next week, July 5-9, and we hope you'll join us! Signups are open at https://esp-office-hours.paperform.co/.

This is a chance to connect directly with a member of the EF's Ecosystem Support team for:

• Project feedback
• Guidance on submitting an inquiry or grant application
• Help navigating the Ethereum ecosystem
• Information about the Ecosystem Support Program

Guidelines

• Teams or individuals are welcome, regardless of the stage of your project.
  
• We’re happy to cover a wide range of topics, but please note that we can’t offer:
  • Financial or legal advice
  • Advice on creating, structuring, launching, selling, or doing pretty much anything else with a token
  • Help with transactions, wallets or exchanges
• Before submitting, please visit the Guide to ESP to familiarize yourself with what we do and the types of work we support. We also highly recommend visiting ethereum.org to explore the wide range of community-curated resources available there.
• An office hours session is an informal conversation; it is *not* an application for a grant or other formal support.
• We try to be as accommodating as possible, but we may contact you for clarification if your request appears to be out of scope.

If you’d like to chat with us, fill out the request form and we’ll get in touch with details. Submissions will remain open through this Sunday, July 4, or until all available time slots are filled. We look forward to hearing from you!

P.S. Although we love hearing from builders all over the world, at this time we’re only able to take calls in English.
