To be eligible for funding, companies should be generating real-time data that is publicly accessible and can be measured. If real-time data is not currently being collected, the application will be evaluated based on the proposed plan to set up, collect, display, and analyze such data during the project's implementation. This plan must be clearly stated in the Expression of Interest.
If the funding request involves the development of new technology, real-time data will be required to track the progress of the project. If the project seeks support for the application or piloting of a solution, the real-time data should demonstrate progress in that area.
This data will help share the company's progress and experiences with UNICEF and other companies working in similar fields. The data will be displayed on a publicly accessible real-time reporting website, showcasing the Fund's performance, each portfolio's status, and information about each company or project that has received investment. The website will also present stories about each project.
