Task 275 · Group 14

New Frontiers Digital Layer

New Frontiers Digital Layer helps the founder or programme team complete a focused intervention on New Frontiers-style programme application, commitment and readiness requirements. Within Public Agency & Ecosystem Infrastructure, it turns a broad or uncertain area of the venture into a concrete Bertie work product that can be reviewed, improved and reused. The task is intentionally discrete: it should produce a specific artefact, decision, evidence item or risk signal rather than general learning notes.

Objective

Complete a focused intervention that advances New Frontiers Digital Layer. The objective is to remove ambiguity around New Frontiers-style programme application, commitment and readiness requirements, give the founder a decision-ready output, and make it clear whether the venture should progress, repeat the task with stronger evidence, escalate to expert support, or move into a linked stage.

When this task is assigned

Bertie or a programme manager assigns New Frontiers Digital Layer when the venture needs a decision-ready output for this group. Typical triggers include group-gate reviews, evidence gaps identified by the co-pilot or founder request.

Dependencies & prerequisites

ecosystem objective; programme inventory; founder intake data; partner network; reporting requirements; specific context for New Frontiers-style programme application, commitment and readiness requirements.

Actions in this task
6 actions
  1. Establish the precise parameters of the New Frontiers digital layer assessment for your venture. Map out how your current development stage aligns with the specific regional public agency entry thresholds and phase requirements.

    Objective

    Clarifying the task purpose establishes a focused baseline for evaluating programme compatibility and commitment requirements. This prevents wasted effort on misaligned application criteria and ensures subsequent work directly supports a high-conviction submission.

    What's expected

    Produce a clear alignment brief detailing the venture's target New Frontiers phase, key selection criteria, and strategic rationale for applying. The output must explicitly highlight known gaps between current venture maturity and public agency expectations.

    Consultant stress-test · 5 questions
    1. 1.What specific regional agency criteria confirm that New Frontiers is the optimal funding and support route for this venture today?
    2. 2.How does your current venture phase map against the formal commitment expectations of the programme?
    3. 3.Why have you chosen to target this specific New Frontiers intake rather than building further commercial traction first?
    4. 4.Where are the primary misalignments between your venture's current timeline and the programme's key milestones?
    5. 5.How will securing a place on this programme tangibly de-risk your core venture hypothesis compared to alternative non-dilutive routes?

Expected outputs
  • A data-room asset titled New Frontiers Digital Layer
  • A clear task output, updated venture DNA and recommended next action
  • It should update the venture DNA with specific evidence or decisions about New Frontiers-style programme application, commitment and readiness requirements, create a visible milestone in the founder journey, and generate one or more recommended next tasks
AI co-pilot support

Bertie co-pilot analyses intake, routing, eligibility, programme and ecosystem data, then recommends support pathways and management interventions. For this task, it should focus on New Frontiers-style programme application, commitment and readiness requirements, prompt the founder for missing inputs, draft or improve the output, flag weak assumptions, and record the result back into the relevant data-room section.

Advisor / human support

A mentor or evaluator can review the output at the group gate. Programme managers can require an advisor checkpoint before Bertie moves the venture forward.
