Development AG
Unlocking Funding Opportunities, Fostering Innovation
Q Development AG is revolutionizing the crypto grant landscape by introducing an investment-matching program tailored to projects seeking funding and professional investors. As of its launch, 25mn USD are already allocated for potential ecosystem investments.
True to the spirit of Web3, the Q Ecosystem Fund is set up as a collaborative platform: Professional investors can support Q Ecosystem projects in all stages of development via their respective funds. Qualifying investments are then matched in Q tokens by Q Development AG. Flexible structuring options ensure that capital is deployed in an optimal way with the goal of fostering sustainable growth of the Q ecosystem.

Why Are We Doing This?
A robust financial support system is paramount to foster innovation in bootstrap web3 ecosystems. Traditional grant models in the crypto space have faced challenges and have not lived up to expectations. Distributing "free money" has created a precedent for potential fund misuse. Grant hunters, attracted by the lure of tokens, often lacked a genuine commitment to the long-term development of the ecosystem. This has led to a dilution of the grant impact and a diversion of resources away from projects with a true dedication to fostering the Web3 ecosystem.
By partnering with professional investors, Q Development AG aims to avoid the pitfalls of direct token grants, while providing the highest level of value-add to projects that build on Q or use Q's governance features.
How Does It Work?
Matching Investments with Q Tokens
Q Development AG matches the investment of investment partners with Q tokens, adding a substantial layer of support. This mechanism boosts the investment impact and amplifies the growth potential of projects building with Q.
Investment Scale
Professional investors can obtain matching funds of up to ten times their average ticket size.
Equity Possibilities
Investors retain full discretion of their use of Q token. Q Development AG exercises no influence of how Q tokens are used.
