INN has received a $50,000 grant from the Open Society Foundation to assist INN members who wish to migrate onto our hosted Largo CMS platform.
INN cannot guarantee we will be able to cover the full cost of migration for all members who are interested in the platform, however we hope to be able to help as many members as possible so that cost to migrate will be less of a barrier to organizations who want to make the switch.
Please fill out the following survey if you wish to apply for funds to help assist your organization in migrating to the platform.
Criteria for evaluation:
- Existing website technology, additional needs and suitability for the Largo platform
- Ease and cost of performing the migration
- Availability (where applicable) of additional funds that a member can commit to migrating to and launching a site using Largo
- Proposed timeline for completing the migration
Final determination of how the funds will be distributed rests with INN.
Please note that free hosting and limited assistance in migration and customization of a Largo-powered site is available to any INN member regardless of the outcome of this funding opportunity.
If you want to learn more about Project Largo please visit: largoproject.org or e-mail Adam Schweigert, INN Director of Technology, at adam@investigativenewsnetwork.org to arrange a demo.
The initial deadline for submitting a request for subsidy is June 1st, 2013.
