“Fundraising for effective charities: In 2022, we created a commercial coventure agreement to be used with companies and individuals in the gaming industry, and began negotiating with potential partners on this basis. We launched our website, began advertising online, and attended conferences on behalf of EGQ. We also identified a third charitable fund that we found to be highly effective in the longtermist charitable space and added this to the other two charitable funds we advocate for.”
