## Summary

Partnership definitions were established via Vision Partner criteria and the Daily Active User target was calculated.

Vision Partner Definition  
The team opted for the term Vision Partners over ambassadors or evangelists for Buddhist influencers who have a common vision, a large following, and an existing group routine. The primary goal is to secure 10 to 20 Vision Partners to transition existing large group routines to a hybrid format.

Partnership Strategy and DAU  
The North Star metric was defined as Daily Active Users, with a target of 40,000 DAU requiring 400,000 total users, demanding partners with a combined 1 million followers. Partnering with existing large groups, such as monastic institutions, was deemed the guaranteed low-risk strategy for user acquisition over starting new groups.

Partner Categories and Team Structure  
Partner categories were defined as Vision, Content, Text (publishers), and Tech Partners, with groups being considered a type of user for marketing purposes. Internal teams were structured into Tech, Text, and Partnership Teams to support the partner strategy.

## Suggested Next Steps

- Ngawang Trinley will send the resumes of new potential hires to the group.
- Menla Tsomo will check the reliability of the language translator fix.
- Norbu Tsering will look into the social media aspect and find a technically available person who can solve things.
- The group will check the accessible surroundings of the proposed location.
