Yeah I can do! This is my first week on my own after starting the year with 11 staff so just getting my ducks in a row. I wonder if a really solid pitch here would be to focus on our existing successful placecal networks but kinda do it 1,2,3: 1 - TransDim will have expanded to Manchester by then and thats the "proof" 2 - Tipping Point have done a really successful pilot in the NE but now need their own custom frontend 3 - 1 more site that's just starting needs some help doing Y and isnt quite there yet (norwich?) We could even do 1 and 2 only but i think itd make sense to it this way? Does that make sense? I am not sure when I'm gonna find the time to write the application tho. Can anyone find the questions without signing up? kim On Wed, 6 Nov 2024 at 18:00, Joe Irving <joe@tippingpointuk.org> wrote:
Hey Kim,
Are you still thinking you might go for this one? If you are needing stats for scalability we could see if we could do a Tipping Point regional work + PlaceCal as a opportunity to scale across the UK?
Solidarity,
Joe

I think PlaceCal are a good candidate for this, and potentially so is Solidarity Tech <https://www.solidarity.tech/> who I'm speaking to later today. I'd argue Zetkin too, but I feel they've been quite conservative about how fast they want to roll out and not necessarily interested in mass usage — which is fine.
I feel like Mapped is still in the 'seeking product-market fit' stage with a lot of fruitful avenues to explore, but not firm enough yet to approach this kind of fund.

I might put in a bid for PlaceCal yeah and would be happy to look into a group one nearer the time?
Was also wondering if anyone else had anything this close to market?

This looks interesting, are you thinking of a bid just for PlaceCal as is or as a collaboration between groups?
