Hello,
My name is Federico Cicciarella (https://www.linkedin.com/in/federicocicciarella/), and I have been a Microsoft .Net (C#) developer for about 20 years. In recent years, my passion has shifted towards blockchain technology, specifically focusing on the Polkadot ecosystem. (you can find more information about me in the link below).
Recently, I received a grant https://grants.web3.foundation/applications/tracking_chain and this is a wiki https://github.com/TrackingChains/TrackingChain/wiki
Amount: 1000 DOT Around $4,500 (4,5$ for Dot is average of the last 3 months)
Description:
Having successfully completed the basic functionality of software development for "Tracking Chain," (Milestone 1-2-3 completed and last milestone 4 is in progress) I’m at a crucial phase where I aim to directly introduce our solution to potential clients. I want to demonstrate the tangible value it can bring to their operations. Currently, my target clientele primarily consists of companies in the supply chain and data/document certification sectors.
I have already scheduled a demonstration involving three Italian companies, one of which is in the final stages of agreement. This demo is scheduled to take place between October and December. Additionally, I am actively planning more demos with other Web2 companies that I have worked with over the past few years, with hopes of conducting them in early 2024. Moreover, I am exploring opportunities for participation in prominent blockchain and IT events that are regularly held in Italy.
The funds will be allocated to cover three essential aspects:
To provide an estimate, each demo is expected to require a minimum of six working days, encompassing travel, on-site client presentations, configuration, assistance, and software integration. This equates to approximately $1,500 per demo, based on a daily rate of $250 ($31.25 per hour, assuming an eight-hour workday). Please note that this calculation excludes travel expenses and server costs.
PS: These costs cannot be covered by a grant because: "The Web3 Foundation's Grants Program aims to fund software development and research activities that are beneficial for the ecosystem as a whole. As such, we don't usually fund tangential costs such as business-oriented activities (marketing, business planning), events or outreach, and—for non-infrastructure projects—deployment and hosting costs, maintenance or audits."
For those interested in delving into the architecture to be implemented or any other questions related to the demo or the Tracking Chain project, I am available to provide further clarification.
Thank you.
Sincerely, Federico Cicciarella
