Who is involved

Active cast. Already in frame are "family offices," "existing patrons the fish in that sense," and "those web two organizations that are hosting these conferences that would like a presence of hitchhikers." The Hitchhikers are launching: "we're calling the web summit outreach... we're releasing the app and we're starting to agree we're launching and trying to sign up patron fish." Comparisons to existing committed investors are drawn — a patron should "get the same sort of deal in terms of capital terms" as "robbie" or "anyone who's investing ip." The anecdote about step-mom "noemi who's got this thing called a lot with little" illustrates the prestige/cachet value exchange.

Being invited or network activated. "We should have some local partners there that are organizing some events either the blockchain ones or the web two ones." "We should try and get ourselves on some of the conference and speakers sort of things" by "reaching out to those conference organizers event organizers... we'd like to be a speaker we'd like to present." Aspirationally, growing "the trust graph" by "getting these really cool amazing well respected people to become a vision fish pledge 42 hours," with patrons landing on "the hall of fame as one of the founding donors or investors."
