Cardano Partners + real world integrations will divide into 2 tracks, Enterprise & Growth. Enterprise will attract Tier1 integrations with industry leaders and Growth will target mainstream marketing and venture investment accelerators. A similar moderation to F12 will run to shortlist vote ballot.

1 Key performance metric will be required from all funded projects when forming Statement of Milestones.
