We vote **50% for Steakhouse and 50% for Avantgarde.**

We chose Stakehouse because their extensive experience and track record stand out quite a bit. We believe the higher fee is justified with the outcomes that they should be able to bring.

We also chose Avantgarde because of their expertises and their balanced fee structure.

We believe both entities should be able to offer great services as the first Arbitrum STEP Program Manager.
