Fund 12 is here! kicking off with a grand event in Barcelona on April 26,2024. The launch was attended by hundreds in person across different locations and online through 14 live streams with cake! With 50 million ada up for grabs, this round welcomes proposals for prototypes, moonshots, and everything in between.
