Description
Summary
Create a new endpoint to get all DPGs or DPG nominees created by a UNICEF Venture Fund company.
Background
The UNICEF Venture Fund website is being reworked. As part of this rework, we want to better show which UNICEF Venture Fund companies have gone on to either become a DPG or a DPG nominee. This would be shown in a company profile with other information about the company and their work.
Currently, there is no automated way to discover whether a DPG or DPG nominee is a Venture Fund company. To get this data, a Venture Fund portfolio manager or mentor must manually crawl through the list and identify Venture Fund companies from the Registry. This is prone to error and some companies may be missed if their product is not tracked by the Venture Fund.
So, there should be an easier way to discover which DPGs and DPG nominees come from UNICEF Venture Fund companies.
Details
I see the following steps as successfully implementing this task:
- Create a new boolean data point in
organizationsobject of a DPG or nominee, e.g.organizations.unicef_venture_companyastrueorfalse - Add a new question to the DPG Submission Form to inquire whether the company/organization behind the project received funding from the UNICEF Venture Fund
- Create new endpoint to list all DPG + Venture Fund companies:
GET /dpgs/unicef-venture/ - Create new endpoint to list all DPG nominee + Venture Fund companies:
GET /nominees/unicef-venture/
Outcome
Easier to discover what DPG and DPG nominees are connected to the UNICEF Venture Fund, and to use this data automatically for the new Fund website to cross-promote our work with DPGs
