The core mission of the DAOLationships Guild is to facilitate and coordinate relationships between external organizations and BanklessDAO. When other guilds in the bDAO need support from external organizations, they come to DAOLationships to help understand and navigate the personal connections we have. When other orgs want to establish a connection with bDAO, the DAOLationships Guild helps to coordinate those efforts for maximum mutual benefit.

Late in Season 1, we established a governance framework, multisig, and two permanent roles to guide the guild: Guild Coordinator, held by Viking as incumbent, and Governance Coordinator, to which Bo was elected.

During Season 2 we began our operations in earnest. Early wins included the establishment of clarified Notion pages including mission and practices; attempted establishing a CRM with simple, effective functionality; several successful collaborations with major DAOs like UMA and Polygon Ecosystem; and continued proliferation of relationships at powerhouse DAOs across Web3. The most important achievements for the DAOLationships Guild have been raising awareness of BanklessDAO across Web3 and promoting revenue opportunities for various guilds across the DAO.

In Season 3 we intend to refine the process of DAO-to-DAO relationship building through a rigorous process that culminates in value-added information sessions that we host within BanklessDAO.

Our guild’s Gnosis Safe is forecast to retain 90,015 BANK at the end of Season 2. Our gross budgetary request for Season 3 has been defined as 373,000. Therefore we are requesting 282,985 BANK from the Grants Committee for our Season 3 allocation.
