Foundation Prospects
Projects we are researching · Nothing here has been bought
These are the projects we are looking at right now, with where we have got to on each. We publish what we are researching — including what we turn down and why. A foundation that only tells you about the wins is a promoter.

Sending us your project
We read everything sent to us and answer what we can. We do not take payment to look at a project, we do not sell coverage, and we do not announce positions we have not taken. Anyone offering us those gets logged and declined — see LOT 11 above.
