Note to All Event Proposers Aiming to Utilize Funds from the DAO Events Budget
We have published the analysis of the Arbitrum DAO Events Survey results on the forum. The Events Survey (16 respondents) aimed to gauge stakeholder sentiment and gather feedback on what events should be organised or funded by the DAO.
As event organisers prepare to submit funding proposals, we want to provide them with guidance on what types of events they should propose. Additionally, the survey results can help potential events organisers understand which events are more likely to receive DAO funding.
For clarity, these results are not meant to provide strict guidelines but rather offer directional guidance to the community. The decision to fund any event ultimately rests with the DAO via governance / voting.
