We’ve just submitted Powerblock to the NGI0 Commons Fund

— a European initiative supporting open-source and open-hardware projects that strengthen the digital commons.

Our proposal focuses on bringing Powerblock to a fully documented, manufacturable open-hardware design and preparing its public launch on Crowd Supply.

The NGI0 program, coordinated by NLnet Foundation, funds small to medium R&D projects that advance open, trustworthy, and sustainable technologies. If selected, the grant would help us accelerate development, testing, and community documentation.

In any case, we’ll continue to build in the open — all progress logs and design updates will remain visible here and on our GitHub.

Fingers crossed 🤞 and back to building!
