# DAO of the Week Notes, MetaPod

hybrid dao accelerator

accelerate and incubate at the same time

streamlineing resourse allocation for different projects that are already considered a dao or trying to dao up

designed on the realization that all the resources exist in the ecosystem

but there's no real guidance for projects to have access to the resources

create an event that brings in new projects
- give them resources
- info
- fireside chats
- workshops
- dao processes
- partnering projects

take sponsorships from the projects so they're pod projects

Also a public good
- free to projects selected

first event was a DAO pitch contest at eth denver
gave away $20K in grants
onboarded them into accelerator program

pilot program lasted 6 weeks

building out a resource hub
- compiling findings from research from pilot program
- creating case studies on participants
- demonstrate validation to create this on a grander scale

Mentorship

focused on DAO 2 DAO relations

projects are loot holders in the MetaPod DAO

Goal: DAO to DAO resource hub

metaPod is a DAO,
joint venture of MetaCartel and DAOhaus
sponsorship donated to dao treasury and got loot share
gnosis safe and cross chain gnosis safe on mainnet

Use Gnosis for Side Vaults for sponsorships
Use Gnosis for main chain

Use DAOhaus for governance
