When you join the Zoom, please change your Zoom name to include which organization you represent. For example: Veshonte Brown - IndieSpace. You can do this by right-clicking your name in the Zoom window and selecting “Rename”.

During the Pay Your People Lottery Announcement

If you applied for a Pay Your People grant, PLEASE review this website to check to see if your name is on the list.

Did you fill out the application but do not see your name? Send us an email at hello@indiespace.org and we’ll look into. Please forward your receipt from Submittable as this will help expedite the review. 

Please pick ONE person (a CHOSEN REPRESENTATIVE) to represent your company in the event that your name is called during the grant pull.

Each company’s name will be called 3 TIMES at the in-person event and broadcast to the Zoom room. It will simultaneously be typed in the chat IN ALL CAPS. We ask that if your company’s name is called that your chosen representative types in the public chat, the company name and ACCEPT. For example: ABC THEATER ACCEPT. Only the CHOSEN REPRESENTATIVE of the company should type this in the chat.

The Zoom Coordinator will then type your company name and GOT IT to let you know that your acceptance has been noted and confirmed. For example: ABC THEATER GOT IT.

Once the lottery announcements begin, we ask that the chat is kept clear of other text aside from the recipients. Feel free to use emojis to celebrate, but no text so that we can keep the grant program moving.

If you receive one of the Pay Your People grants, you will be contacted on Tuesday, December 3, to receive your payout!
