Via Connected Places Newsletter, very worth applying for this if you are doing good work on the Open Social Web:
“…Applications are open for the first Open Social Awards, and I want to make sure they’re on your radar. The awards, presented by New_ Public, PublicSpaces, and Waag Futurelab, are looking for projects built on open social protocols that are past the prototype stage and in active use. That includes applications, shared infrastructure, and tools built on any federation or interoperability protocol. The awards will grant €10,000 to a grand prize winner and €5,000 to two excellence award winners, sponsored by ZDF and Bluesky. If you’re building something on the open social web, or you know someone who is, this is worth applying for. The jury includes Audrey Tang, Mike Masnick, Johannes Ernst, Melanie Bartos, Robin Berjon, and myself. Applications are due by May 1st, and winners will be announced at the PublicSpaces Conference in Amsterdam on June 5th. You can apply here:
