BreakablePersonally I believe for something good to happen in this area a person has to lead the outreach to government, non-profit and commercial organisations. Unfortunately there is no one doing that (seriously) at the moment as far as I know. It is a catch 22 as neither FFS or LPP has funding for a dedicated resource. I have only time to help with website and community maintenance. I got in touch with X-Prize foundation, and they were certainly interested, but am not able to persistently push any efforts in this area just due to lack of time. I am working full-time in biotech startup, studying in university for masters, have some business to manage as well as well as a large family and kids with disabilities. There is a huge opportunity for personal involvement and growth here which can benefit FFS, LPP and the rest of Fusion Community, which if not developed in full will go to waste.
