is the pilot version running already on the blockchain?

Procivis (the company behind VALID) has a pilot project of a government accredited eID+ with the Swiss Canton of Schaffhausen up and running.

Procivis is ready to deliver the proof-of-existence of the data as a hash on the blockchain.

Our current client decided not to use this blockchain functionality currently for the pilot, since the project is in a very early stage. Data protection is a serious topic in Switzerland and therefore the client wanted to be able to control the pilot environment for now.

As with every new technology institutions first need to gather experience to gain confidence for next steps.

With VALID’s solution we are also working on a approach where the data stays on your device and the timestamped hash of it (as a claim of validity) is on the blockchain.
We have a proof-of-concept for our technology rady and are realizing a decentralized solution for VALID.

For further reference I suggest our technical whitepaper (work in progress) on github: https://github.com/valid-global/white-paper

Basically, your service offers an app that contain and keep our detailed personal data like full name, mother's maiden name, DoB, address, social ID, and other records securely so we can use them more conveniently, like autofill, while wandering around the internet? Plus it also act as an identity verifier (I'm trying to say, you act as an intermediary who state 'yes, the data this user just filled is correct and official') for sites that needs ID verification like (since we're discussing this in cryptoworld) bittrex exchanges' account, or paypal, etc?

The VALID platform will consist of a mobile wallet (VALiD Wallet) for users to manage their personal data as well as a web application (VALID marketplace) for data consumers to buy and access that data. Users and data consumers, who together form the “stakeholders”, will be able to add data, request data from third parties, get their data verified, manage their privacy settings, buy services and finally share and monetize their data in a fully user-controlled fashion.

So this is a new ecosystem where you can collect all your personal Data, like from Facebook or Google, Healthcare and more and make it your one so you can monetize from your one data.


So technically, instead of involuntarily let Facebook sell our ID and preferences to third party marketers, we just sell them ourselves and gain something from it?

I'm really curious here, and I believe there will be a lot of other people out there wanting to know about this too, so your answer will helps them understand: who would interested with my details, anyway?

Yes that's correct.
The marketplace is one of the aspects and it's optional to monetize your own data.

Through the GDPR regulation the services also have to provide your data in a machine readable format.
Which will make it easier in the future i.e. to import your collected data to your VALID wallet.

For further reading our legal analyst Krzysztof Adam Gorski has written an interesting piece about "the winners and losers of GDPR": https://blog.valid.global/the-winners-and-losers-of-gdpr-be86f2179cac

The other two aspects of VALID wallet are:
1) Authentication (as stated correctly in your first statement)
and 2) Safeguard: The state-of-the-art encryption to protect your data. 

Regarding "who would be interested":
There are several use cases. As Krzysztof writes in his very first sentence "Personal data is the commodity of the 21st century." or as the World Economic Forum calls it "a new asset class" (source (http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_ITTC_PersonalDataNewAsset_Report_2011.pdf)) you can think of how much our data is valued by i.e. marketers.
Another use case could also be your anonymized data for surveys and research.
With all your data that you create every second of the day and you as the beneficiary if this data gets used, there might even be the case of a "digital basic income" in the future: https://blog.valid.global/claim-your-digital-basic-income-cdf3f1d84c7

NEWS: Lykke to support VALID ITO

https://www.lykke.com/company/news/Procivis

Quote
Lykke, a Swiss FinTech company building a global marketplace on the blockchain, will provide support for the VALID token sale.

VALID is the latest project of Procivis AG, a blockchain-based provider of government-trusted electronic ID solutions from Switzerland.

The Initial Token Offering (ITO) will help to fund VALID, a new type of digital wallet that enables users to manage and monetize their personal data in a fully secure and controlled environment.

“Lykke was the clear choice for us from the beginning,” said Daniel Gasteiger, Procivis co-founder and CEO. “They are one of the most renown companies in the blockchain ecosystem, (...)

The same CEO that accompanied the Modum project in the early stage?

This smells like a great investment opportunity to me. Will definitely invest some bucks into this project.

We are grateful to have Malik El Bay - the co-founder and former CEO of modum.io - on our advisory board.

I'm trying to understand, what makes you different than Datawallet who is also launching their ico very soon.

We are based in Switzerland, where data protection standards were always held high.

The backbone of VALID is Procivis AG, a company that is working on government-trusted digital identity solutions since 2016.
Providing real trusted identities has been our focus ever since.
That’s why the Swiss Canton of Schaffhausen is also running a pilot project with us (see in detail (http://procivis.ch/2017/12/04/procivis-and-the-canton-of-schaffhausen-present-eid-solution-at-the-egovernment-day-schaffhausen/)).

Furthermore, Procivis has a full pipeline of international projects that will be announced in due course.

The marketplace is only one aspect of the VALID ecosystem. Besides of being able to sell our aggregated data, you can also use VALID to securely and seamlessly authenticate yourself.

Another aspect is: With the GDPR regulation coming, every company that is active in the EU has to hand over all the data they collect of you in a machine-readable form, if requested to do so.
That means from May 2018 on every person in the EU can own and use their data in their own way. (in detail analysis of GDPR (https://blog.valid.global/the-winners-and-losers-of-gdpr-be86f2179cac))

VALID will provide the tool, with just a few clicks, for users to request their data from corporations that are processing and collecting it, thereby allowing them to resell onwards.

NEWS: VALID covered by Hackernoon

Quote
Identity, Blockchain, and You

Your online identity is a powerful tool for people who want to reach out to you. Advertisers, governments, corporations, public services, and many other organizations use online identities to deliver marketing programs, information, and tailored content. As the internet evolved, the use of cookies and advertising IDs expanded the scope of online identity. Today it’s easy to learn intimate details about an individual from their metadata alone. Despite the best efforts of privacy legislation and identity masking tools, most of us have bared all online without much protection over our data. Fraudsters, criminals, jilted lovers, and other nefarious characters can wreak havoc in the lives of their victims using deception and forgery to capture information online. As more of the world’s banking, communicating, commerce, and trade moves online, the temptation for theft and mischief has never been higher.
(...)
The VALID team wants to give users control over their data while they transact online. The platform allows custom control over authentication, data safeguards, and monetization of personal information. Users will regain their sovereignty over their data and their online wallet, safe from the prying eyes of marketers and fraudsters. Approved advertising and better targeting for the marketing effort will reward users for sharing select data points with the network. There are implications for the polling and market research industries as well as advertising. Users will earn VALID tokens for their participation if desired, more importantly, the technology will allow locked-down control of personal information, too.

VALID: Blockchain-Based Personal Data Management for the Digital Age
(...)
The Value of Personal Data

The VALID marketplace is a timely, promising concept for several reasons. As the digital advertising industry currently operates, the value of personal data lies less in a single data point or even a single data set, but rather in the assembled profiles of individuals that data brokers make available to brands and advertisers after themselves acquiring and merging datasets. This is because the reliability, and thus utility, of individual data points exists only insofar as the broader or more complete profile establishes a relatively trustworthy context for the data.

VALID profoundly alters that relationship. Because VALID users (after defining parameters of their participation) are able to share demographic information such as age, gender, income range, place of residence, and potentially additional information, advertisers will be able to work with fewer data points but nevertheless be confident that they are interacting with an appropriate demographic.

New Blogpost by European Parliament Member Eva Kaili: Blockchain and citizens’ data: challenges and opportunities


Quote
“The processing of personal data should be designed to serve mankind.” If that sounds like flowery, idealistic language, then the following might get your attention: That sentence introduces new legislation imposing fines on companies of up to 4% of their annual global turnover or €20 million (whichever is greater) if they fail to protect our personal data.

The reason why the European Union is leading the world in protecting its residents’ personal data in the digital age is because personal data protection is a human right according to Article 8 of the EU’s Charter of Fundamental Rights. For those who don’t know their Charter, this right is enshrined between “The right to life” (Article 2) and “Freedom of expression” (Article 11) — it is that fundamental.

As technology disrupts the existing order, we as law makers are being challenged to ensure that we strike the right balance. As we move from the old order to the new, we want innovation to flourish, while simultaneously protecting citizens’ rights. As a general principle, I apply the following test for new legislation in the technology space: Does it reduce transaction costs for ordinary people, while simultaneously enhancing their security?

One of the examples worth a closer look is distributed ledger technology, which is gaining in significance as an increasing number of entities discover ways of optimising their operations by utilising blockchain-based solutions. As the draftsperson of first text of the European Parliament focusing on distributed ledger technology, I have participated in several hearings on the potential benefits of blockchain as a revolutionary force within the public sector.

New Blogpost: Token Sale Essentials — Token Distribution

https://blog.valid.global/token-sale-essentials-token-distribution-4344d83e6274


Quote
Following the successful completion of the presale, we have received questions from our community regarding the timeline for the minting of VALID tokens. The token minting process will be concluded in April 2018, at which point participants will receive the reserved tokens in their registered wallets. The token contract address will be announced simultaneously.

Why is the minting process done after the crowdsale?

Investments are allocated to the respective participants on the basis of the time of confirmation of transactions. By law, we are required to conclude the KYC process prior to crediting the allocated tokens to a participant’s wallet. The buffer period following the conclusion of the crowdsale permits for addressing allocation-related grievances (if any) before the minting of the tokens.

Besides these legal considerations, the minting process is also a superior way to allow contributions in multiple crypto currencies and fiat at the same time.

How are investments categorized into bonus tiers?

Investment allocations to bonus tiers are based on the time when the transaction is registered on the blockchain. Overflow transactions from one bonus tier will automatically be assigned to the next tier.

New Blogpost: VALID EXPLORES INTEGRATION OF NEO’S DIGITAL IDENTITY PROTOCOL & CONFIRMS KEY INVESTMENT FROM NEO COUNCIL

https://blog.valid.global/valid-explores-integration-of-neos-digital-identity-protocol-confirms-key-investment-from-neo-d79b0a4a1f0e


Quote
Procivis AG, the company behind the VALID project, is pleased to announce that it will seek to incorporate NEO’s native digital identity layer, NeoID, for the development of VALID’s agnostic e-Identity layer and is proud to confirm NEO Council as a key strategic investor in VALID.

With VALID, Procivis is taking personal data management to the next level. At the core is a user-controlled digital identity solution allowing people to transact online securely and seamlessly while safeguarding all their sensitive personal data. Furthermore, the VALID marketplace can directly connect users with data consumers such as product and service companies, brands, researchers and advertisers. With the VALID wallet, users can directly and easily start monetizing their personal data in a fully secure and controlled fashion on the VALID marketplace. In return, data consumers gain direct access to reliable, anonymized data in a compliant and cost-efficient way.

When asked about the decision to experiment with NEO’s digital identity protocol, VALID CTO Giorgio Zinetti said, “We believe that blockchain-enabled digital identity solutions need to become a public utility in the future. The underlying infrastructure needs to be able to handle an extensive number of transactions in a cost-efficient way and NEO is already achieving this. However, we need to build a standard that allows projects such as VALID to integrate easily with NEO. Therefore, we look forward to collaborating with the NEO community to establish a respective NEP standard.”

NEO’s blockchain infrastructure provides several advantages over existing platforms. For instance, NEO’s consensus protocol, Delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance currently permits the network to process up to 1,000 transactions per second with the potential to scale up to 10,000 transactions per second in an energy efficient manner.

VALID is continuously exploring new technologies that could support this vision. The number of blockchains that support smart contracts and are operational still remain limited. The VALID token is currently based on Ethereum’s ERC 20 standard and the identity layer would support Ethereum’s ERC725 and ERC 735 protocols. But VALID remains agnostic with regards to the identity protocols supported by its platform and the above reasons make NeoID a highly attractive proposition for VALID. As such, VALID is looking forward to exploring the potential to implement a NEO based identity smart contract, allowing VALID to expand its reach beyond the Ethereum world.

That is indeed an aspect that needs more attention.

The adoption of just a single government of this technology/concept would entail millions and millions of digital accounts of citizens. And in the case that happens, it probably won't end there.

The more projects are launched on the digital identity field, the more awareness is generated for this topic, the higher the chances for mainstream adoption.

Remme.io is working on identification for online services.
VALID is going a step further and implementing a full on data management system, through our VALID wallet.

We believe that blockchain-enabled digital identity solutions will become a public utility within 5-10 years and that there will only be a handful of protocols that will succeed.

Additionaly the VALID marketplace will be eID protocol agnostic:
While we are developing our own eID solution, we ultimately intend to also accommodate the most successful eID protocols via an agnostic platform (see our partnership with Sovrin), all compatible with our personal data marketplace, enabled by our VALID token.

The presentation focused primarily on the future of blockchain based digital identity. Yves explained that VALID may be seen as a natural successor to Procivis’ eID+ government solution, putting the company on course to achieving its vision of empowering users with fully self-sovereign digital identities. Enabled by blockchain, VALID would make it possible for users to construct a digital identity and have their claims attested by trusted third parties such as NGOs, supranational organisations, or even social media platforms. This marks a paradigm shift from the status quo, eliminating the dependence of users on governments to obtain a recognised identity(...)

With the VALID ITO, Procivis AG seeks to contribute to the development of ITOs as a powerful tool to drive future innovation by building a supporter base of early adopters as well as enabling the allocation of capital for the development of an independent and publicly available platform.

ITOs have ushered in an era of unprecedented access to capital for innovation. With a well-articulated vision, entrepreneurs can now transcend geographical barriers to reach a global base of supporters. On the other hand, easy access to capital has also made the system prone to abuse with a host of questionable projects raising astronomical sums of money by defrauding unsuspecting individuals. In this post, we seek to inform the VALID community about our efforts to comply with the highest standards of regulation, the rationale behind launching the VALID token, as well as the utility and economics of the token.

HARD CAP 25,000,000 USD

Verdict
VALID is a non-profit working to give you control over your digital identity. The platform includes a wallet for you to manage your identity and personal data as well as a marketplace where you can sell your information and activity to digital marketers.

The team is filled with blockchain experts and has already formed partnerships with the Swiss government. Although VALID is yet available, it’s a piece of the already established product, Procivis.

Risks
    Unclear revenue model. As a non-profit, VALID is not motivated to make a significant amount of money or increase the token value. In fact, part of the token allocations is slotted to keep prices under control. (-4)
    Empty Github. The Github repository has barely any commits with the last bit of activity almost two weeks ago. The project should have more active development. (-2)
    No product yet. Any project without a working product and users is inherently risky. (-2)

Growth Potential
    Strong team. The team is 24 members and advisors strong with expertise in a range of relevant fields. (+5)
    Sold out pre-sale. Selling out the pre-sale is a solid sign that there are others that stand by the vision of the project and believe in the team. (+4)
    Government partnerships. If the VALID team can capitalize on their government partnerships and provide digital identity solutions to citizens, the implication could be huge. (+6)

Disposition
VALID receives an average score of 7 out of 10. Even though the idea seems valuable, as a non-profit, it doesn’t look as if the team is motivated to increase the value of the token. The partnerships with the Swiss government entities are important, but the project is first focusing on personal data sales to digital marketers, not government digital identities.

This is a good rating from hacked.com.

Token Sale Essentials — Soft Cap, Hard Cap, Strategy and Values

https://blog.valid.global/token-sale-essentials-soft-cap-hard-cap-strategy-and-values-7e4b3116c09d


Quote

As we approach the end of the first week of the crowdsale, we would like to give our community a quick update. With USD 10.5 million raised, less than a week into the crowdsale, the VALID team is thoroughly pleased. This marks an important milestone in the VALID journey and takes us one step closer to delivering our vision. As a community driven project, we would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to all our supporters. In this blogpost, we seek to inform our community about the crowdsale milestones, strategic tools and the values which shape VALID.

In an era marked by eroding privacy standards, VALID is driven by the end objective of restoring control over personal data in the cyberspace, back to the user. We operate in a dynamic industry marked by changing regulatory regimes, shifting public opinion and accelerating pace of innovation. On the regulatory front, the EU GDPR is set to disrupt the existing order and empower users with greater control over their personal data. In 2017, a survey by the International Data Corporation (IDC) found that 70% of US consumers felt that their concern regarding privacy is greater today than just a few years ago. [1] And on the technological front, our data collection and processing capabilities have expanded exponentially over the past few years with 2015 and 2016 generating 90% of all the data ever collected in history. [2]

With the sand shifting under our feet at a rapid pace, it is vital that VALID adopts an agile approach which permits it to move in line with an evolving reality. It is natural human tendency to get fixated on solutions, thus getting disconnected from reality. This is termed as the Einstellung Effect and has been recognized by the Lean Startup Co. as one of the biggest mistakes that an entrepreneur can make. Instead the lean startup approach recommends “falling in love with the problem” and making it the guiding light (the north star) through the course of building a product.

While the lean startup approach offers vital lessons in operationalizing a project, it falls short when it comes to informing methods of managing resources. This leads us to Saraswathy’s theory of effectuation (2001). The theory of effectuation outlines decision making principles employed by expert entrepreneurs operating in contexts of uncertainty. This is in contrast to causal reasoning employed by large corporations which traditionally operate in a context of greater certainty than startups. *

A startup would be better advised to employ effectual reasoning which involves identifying the means available and then defining several feasible paths towards the end vision, given the means, on an ongoing basis. The truth is, no one really knows the ultimate solution which will be able to deliver our vision of restoring privacy to users. Thus, we believe that making the problem our north star and planning with the available resources, on an ongoing basis, places us in the best position to adapt to the evolving setting we operate in and ultimately deliver a product which is aligned with the user’s needs.

The Hard Cap, Soft Cap and the interstellar space in between

These theories which have now emerged as the holy grail of startup strategy, have informed our decisions on the hard cap, soft cap and the 3rd milestone between the two, USD 10 million. The soft cap marks the absolute minimum required to deliver an MVP with bare minimum. This would limit our ability to invest on building a community, which we believe will form the backbone of our project. The onus of taking the VALID vision forward would then be shifted to other innovators who may build upon the open source VALID platform which has been delivered.

We are fortunate that we have surpassed this important milestone and reached the next one, USD 10 million which places us in a strong position to deliver the full VALID vision. That brings us to the question about the hard cap. Any further progress from USD 10 million towards the hard cap would increase our financial power to invest on the following areas: 1. Local community development teams in strategic locations across the globe, 2. A fully centralized technical development team in the Zurich headquarters, 3. Broader humanitarian pilot projects to further VALID’s objective of inclusion and empowerment.

The VALID Vision and Values

If the history of technological innovation has shown us anything, it is that capital is one of the many factors which influence the success of a venture. Bill Gross, founder of the iconic startup studio, Idealab ranks funding as the 5th indicator of startup success, below timing, team, idea and business model. This is also reflected in Procivis’ own story, which is a bootstrapped venture and has now been ranked among Switzerland’s 50 startups to invest in by Bilan and is also a revenue generating enterprise with its eID+ product.

VALID marks the next step in Procivis’ vision, of empowering users with a fully self-sovereign digital identity, thus eliminating exclusive dependencies on governments for the issuance of identities. With privacy and control over personal data being an issue which affects virtually everyone, we believe that the success of VALID depends on fostering a healthy community with shared values and vision.

The crowdsale is thus, the first step in our journey of building a community and opening up the opportunity to participate in our vision. We believe that the values that we stand for must be ingrained in everything we do, our token sale included. As a result, we refrain from using marketing tools which diverge from what we stand for. Having reached our USD 10 million milestone, our efforts over the remaining period of the crowdsale will be focused on empowering our community members to advocate the VALID vision and share the opportunity to participate in the journey with their likeminded peers.

Footnote:

* Causal Reasoning refers to an approach adopted by corporate leaders where a specific end goal is defined following which the means required to achieve this end are identified. For example, Nestlé sets a target to achieve a 2% CAGR on revenues between 2017 and 2020. With this target defined, the company puts in place the means required to achieve it, which may include a large marketing team and budget. This works in situations where the organization has virtually unlimited means to achieve an end.

As financial transactions move online, the need for comprehensive online security is greater than ever [...]
VALID  is one such company that is creating a self-sovereign digital identity solution giving people complete ownership and control over their personal data, combining it with a secure and transparent marketplace to match identity owners with data consumers. This will allow identity owners to handle all personal information, stored in a wallet on the blockchain, and it may, one day, replace other forms of identity verification.

The Personal Data Experiment — Join the Movement!

Quote

The internet has brought in an era of connectivity that has never been seen before. Internet based services are so integrated into our everyday life that we hardly ever pause to think about the sheer depth and breadth of personal data we share with them. From pictures shared over messaging services to likes and dislikes shared over social media, every bit of data once transmitted over the internet may be eternally recorded by service providers subject to the hundreds of pages of terms and conditions that we never once paused to read.[...]

In response to requests from our community members, the VALID team launched a Personal Data Experiment. We identified 20 well recognized companies, known for their data-processing capabilities and exercised our right to request and obtain access to our personal data.

Announcement: VALID completes token sale, raises equivalent of USD 10.73 million!

https://blog.valid.global/announcement-valid-completes-token-sale-raises-equivalent-of-usd-10-73-million-2d360717f838


Quote

Swiss digital identity and personal data management platform VALID has announced the successful completion of its initial token offering. In total, the project has raised the equivalent of USD 10.73 million in Ether, Bitcoin and fiat.


The VALID crowd sale closed on 17th of March as planned, marking the end of the project’s initial token offering. In a next step, the tokens sold during the initial token offering will be minted and distributed to backers, provided they have completed the stringent KYC (“Know Your Customer”) vetting procedure VALID is required to conduct as a member of a self-regulatory organisation supervised by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA. VALID expects the distribution of tokens to sale participants within the coming four to eight weeks.

VALID has already announced the future listing of its token on the Lykke exchange and is in discussions with further crypto currency exchanges. The VALID token will trade under the symbol “VLD”. VALID expects to be listed on Lykke and possibly further exchanges within the next weeks.

The level of funds raised puts VALID in a strong position to deliver the project’s full vision. VALID founder and CEO Daniel Gasteiger said:

The ICO crowdsale was completed over a month ago. What are the next steps? As far as I know there hasn't been a token distribution yet. Unfortunately I missed the ICO and I would like to acquire some tokens after they hit an exchange. That's why I am interested when and where Valid is listed on an exchange.

The tokens have been distributed a couple of days ago and they are trading on ForkDelta and IDEX as well as Lykke. You can buy in at pretty much ICO price.

Dear Trung,
Thank you for reaching out. We apologize for the delay in processing your KYC. As we explained to you, it was due to a missing legal sign off from our auditor. Unfortunately, we are unable to allocate tokens before the auditor is able to verify your case. However, they are working on it with high priority and we expect a solution within the next week. Thank you very much for your patience and please don't hesitate to reach out to us any time via Telegram or email.
Kind regards,
Your VALID Team

Guys - As many would have faced this, Delta App only shows the IDEX price for VLD. When contacted and asked to list Lykke, so that we could monitor VLD's price and growth, they tweeted and asked for Lykke to get upvotes to be listed.

To be honest I don't think Lykke isn't much bigger than IDEX if at all. Trading will only really start when a bigger centralized exchange lists Valid.

Is there anyone there from admins may help for refund process which supposed to happen nearly a week ago. I am fed up with it.

And is there any way to buy the token already?
Yes, the token is already listed on Lykke and can be tradet on Etherdelta with the contract address.

It is not yet listed on Coinmarketcap so far.

I have received a queston regarding source of my investment. Do I have to reply to that? I do not really understand it, because tokens are already distributed?!?

Yes, we would be grateful if you do so. We require the information for our auditor.

Is there other thread or channel or media other than this thread? One that is more active than this. It's been too long that I even need to go back few pages to refresh my memory of what this project is about. And certainly addressing a question dated almost one month behind is not impressive

Do you mean they have other channels aside from this very quiet thread and telegram? I'd also like to know how active their telegram is. Anyone joined and can give a valid (pun intended) input?

The global channel has 3.7k members so it's on the smaller side. It has been renamed to VETRI in case you want to join. https://t.me/vetri_global
There are civil discussions going on but it is no spam fest with gifs and memes and lambo moons.
You'll get an answer to your questions there during the European business hours. They have a Community Manager.

Thank you very much, this is a very pertinent question. As you can see from our updated website, our tech team is constantly growing. Your point about testing results is particularly relevant. Over the past couple of months in fact, we have been doing just that, putting our proposition out to the public and testing reactions. The results from this testing phase will be released to the community on an ongoing basis over the coming months. The reactions overall have been very encouraging both from data consumers and data owners (users). At the same time, we have received very valuable feedback which will help inform the development of our MVP over the next few months. Stay tuned for updates and we remain at your disposal should you have further questions.

VALID is already working on pilot programs with foreign governments and supra-national organizations. With the strong team in place, i believe that the project has a good chance to execute on the vision and projections that it has made. The scope of the project is also fairly wide, including all kinds of data for companies conducting research, surveys or digital advertising campaigns. Therefore, should the project become successful, the upside potential is substantial.
