Empowering
Innovators

The
Community
Grants
Program
is
designed
to
empower
passionate
builders
who
are
keen
to
explore
the
frontiers
of
innovation
and
contribute
to
Worldcoin’s
mission
of
building
the
world’s
largest
human
network.
This
initiative
aims
to
improve
trust
online
and
enhance
access
to
the
global
economy.

The
17
awarded
projects
in
Wave1
span
across
various
domains,
including
novel
governance

Secure
Multi-party

and

to
play
a
significant

Continued
Support
for
Wave0
Grantees

In
addition
to
the
new
grantees
in
Wave1,
the
program
also
includes
follow-on
support
for
some
of
the
Wave0
grantees.
Among
them
is
TACEO,
which
has
made
significant
strides
in
biometric
template
protection
and
facilitated
the
secure
deletion
of

previous
iris
code
system.
TACEO
will
continue
to
work
on
newer
iterations
of
SMPC

of
