The Open Core Ventures (OCV) Catalyst Program aims to support open source maintainers in the growth or revitalization of their open source projects with potential for commercial viability. Projects including, but not limited to, developer tools, artificial intelligence enhancement/implementation, and data transformation will be considered for sponsorship and will receive support and mentorship from OCV team.
Participants in the program will collaborate with OCV to establish and work towards clear, measurable objectives over a three-month sponsorship period, focusing on metrics such as contributor growth, community expansion, or increased adoption. OCV is committed to advancing the growth of open source through providing the sponsorship resources and aims to amplify the impact of open-source projects and position them for long term success.
