Who can use Polimec, and who is the target group?

Polimec brings together all stakeholders required for sustainable project funding and aligns their multifaceted interests. Polimec’s decentralized and permissionless approach welcomes and grants access to everybody. Nevertheless, to perform various actions, such as evaluation, participation, staking, and governance, network participants must complete a KYC/AML process executed by a trusted third party to ensure regulatory compliance. The following network participants are involved in funding rounds on Polimec:

• Issuers who raise funds
• Evaluators who evaluate projects
• Participants who participate in funding rounds

All the network participants contributing to a funding round require attested credentials to interact with the network. Credentials are created and issued by trusted third parties who provide the required KYC/AML services.
