On August 8, a new batch of 60 free and open source projects was selected for the NGI Zero Commons Fund.
We want to thank these project teams for working on the digital commons and contributing to open, secure and trustworthy digital infrastructure for all.
This brings the total of grantees within the programme to 494 projects. There are still two more calls currently under evaluation for the program.
Meet the projects! https://nlnet.nl/news/2026/20260808-60-new-projects.html

The Prototype Fund is growing!
With “Resilience,” we’re now funding not only data security and software infrastructure but also alternatives to tech giants and their centralized ecosystems.
Under “Up and Coming,” we aim to specifically support people who are new(ish) to the #FOSS world.In total, this means up to 19 million euros in additional funding for software developed by the civil society! 🎉
