It is a good opportunity but I could not find answers for these questions: - Is it permitted to use these 30k to pay for hosting/cloud or they do not limit the use of the grant? - Is a person eligible if he is employed but works also on some other projects (startup, open source). - Do they fund teams? For example, can two persons apply for the grant? For example, one person is employed and works part-time while the other developer works full-time.

Your questions are partially answered in the FAQ: - From the german FAQ (the english is missing a sentence there): "What does the funding consist of? Each project will be funded for 6 months at most, and with a maximum amount of 30,000 €. Your work time on the project will be primarily funded. The amount of funding always equates to 60% of the overall project budget. The remaining 40% is your own contribution – meaning the time that you spend on pursuing the project." Though the "mainly" implies work time is not exclusively funded. You should probably contact them here: info@prototypefund.de - You need to be self-employed, but you don't need to work exclusively on your prototype: "The grant will be paid in instalments based on the work carried out at the beginning of each new quarter. Example: The eligibility period starts on 01.03.2017, therefore you can call for funds at the beginning of the new quarter (in this case, in April) proportionately to the work you performed." - "I am working on my project as part of a team, is there anything I should be aware of? As a rule, only individuals are eligible for funding. Whether several persons can apply for one project, or whether parts of the grant can be transferred, will be decided in each particular case, e.g. if there if there are distinct modules in the same project." http://prototypefund.de/en/faq/ http://prototypefund.de/en/faq/
