How much money do you need?

$40,000 would be great for a seed fund. More than that would probably go towards a future larger workshops.

Estimate your probability of succeeding if you get the amount of money you asked for

If we don't come up with any interesting projects to seed fund at the workshop, we'll give the money back.

me, February 6:

Question- if we don’t use the money for regranting to boundaries projects that emerge from Conceptual Boundaries Workshop, may we use it for a second boundaries workshop? Davidad wants me to run Mathematical Boundaries Workshop in two months [link to planning doc]

Scott, February 8:

Yes, this is fine.
