Matching funding

[Kevin Miller]

Yes, there is a substantial chunk coming from multiple government bodies
and some from other sources. The matching funding is very, very
significant for us in that it extends our original Kickstarter runway. The
  grants get spent on development and do not impose any repayment burden
on us in the future. Every dollar going to this campaign will be matched.
Mark is absolutely right here - you may be getting a discount but we are
getting around double. There is a minimum threshold for this to happen or
we get nothing.

Kind regards,

Kevin
