Taking Hackuarium to the next level? Helping projects move forward? or?

c'était un peu le fin de la discussion du jeudi 6 juillet.
Pour plus d'information, voir ici

We started out explaining to Sam more background for the campaign and from the last meeting. 6 teams 2 workshops each, starting from beginning of 2018.

Olivier has the list of the first proposals.

Sam asks if we should mention the science booster matching funds or not... Luc told us about a kid who now has 11k for a trip to US (research related)...

Will need good brief descriptions (one short paragraph) of projects to make sure people want to support us!
Luc will make an example for everyone based around the Living Instruments project...

To note: we need some expensive rewards, to provide the opportunity for someone who wants to give big!

Preliminary list from lowest to highest:

thank you note and sticker for donation of 10chf
the above plus Tshirt or Tote bag for 30chf
participation in a simple workshop 75chf / 150chf for two people
participation in a complicated workshop 300chf
fully-sponsored minigrant to a certain project 500chf
participation in a workshop party for you and your 10 friends - 1500chf
Sam says: we could think about easy set ups of 3D printers, bioreactors, xy - making a personal DIY-lab for people
More ideas??
Joël says anything to do with food etc is popular. Maybe we can get Fred to do molecular cuisine?? (maybe for our 3rd bday party too?)
We could have donations that give membership (240chf for one year), says Luc P! ;)
put your idea here!!

On manque des idées de Beerdecoded, de BioDesign for the Real World, et de Hybridoa.

Teaser Video, Launch Video, Campaign 'spice' Video(s)

Who can help?
The film studios on the second floor may be able to help us. We need to talk to Leila in the renovated side, and to nice people in the HEC 'multimedia lab'.
Vanessa may be perfect as art director. Who else?
Scenarios?
