BIP-6: Education DAO

Authors: Jonathan Allen from Magnus Ventures and Jocelyn Weber from UC Berkeley RDI

Universities are an amazing place for untapped talent and a small amount of support, guidance, and funding can have a profound effect on the innovators of the future. We have already seen numerous founders and projects spin out of university groups and we believe this trend will not only continue but greatly increase. Faculty and University Centers are beginning to take interest in this burgeoning space and supporting academic research and enabling professors to begin focusing more time on solving fundamental problems will benefit everyone.

This proposal ensures that universities know BitDAO is fully supportive of their endeavors as well as aligns BitDAO to sponsor first time founders, their projects, and future autonomous entities. In addition, one of the main issues BitDAO currently faces is a lack of critical engagement and feedback from the community. This proposal is a way of quickly engaging some of the brightest minds and bringing them into the BitDAO community to focus on exactly that.
