Digital Assets promoting positive impact need to broaden their reach. They need ratings to establish trust, transparency, accountability, and integrity; to increase support for impact and validate this market.\n\n\u2018Sustainability\u2019 as a concept in impact investing is still finding its own harmony with corporate reporting and disclosure practices. Our framework and platform implementation serves to compliment this system by making digital assets the ideal asset class for measurable impact as well as auditable disclosure of relevant and material data, using Web3 and distributed ledger technologies for provenance of purported impact.\n\nSimbiotica\u2019s impact assessment framework has streamlined analyzing impact investing industry sectors and topical areas that evaluate tokens across any chain or consensus mechanism on what is relevant and material with regard to digital assets specifically.\n\nThe pillars of our framework are:\nImpact \ud83d\udd4a\ufe0f\nGovernance \u2696\ufe0f\nCyber-security \ud83d\udd10\n\nThe sectors digital assets are categorized in are:\n\ud83e\uddea Health & DeSci \n\ud83d\udcbbTechnology\n\u267b\ufe0fCircularity\n\u26a1Energy\n\ud83d\udcb8Finance\n\ud83c\udf31Nature\n\ud83e\udec2Social\n\ud83e\uddefCarbon\n\nOur aggregator platform serves as the insight infrastructure for the Regenerative Finance ecosystem and allows investors the real-time tools to accelerate investment in projects and assets whose intentions are to address climate change, advance clean technology, improve economic equity, and support societal welfare. We provide the necessary assessment parameters for developing and implementing a variety of investment strategies for impact digital assets. These parameters make our ratings not only meaningful for investors, but also effective for reputation building by organizations aiming to accelerate their digital asset adoption.\n\nAll Simbiotica\u2019s headline impact scores and summaries are made public on the platform website, and it is in the best interest of organizations looking to scale adoption to steer their actions toward more positive impact via transparent and traceable measures outlined in our framework.\n\nSupport from this grant round would go directly to continuing our R&D process to ensure our ratings provide the most harmonious, efficacious, and meaningful assessment of the hundreds of digital assets on our platform, and continue to streamline the on-ramping process to bring more digital assets under our review, as well as provide vetted non-Web3 organizations the means to build and deploy digital assets to bring financial inclusion to underrepresented communities.
