The founding partners of the collaboration are Aave, Sushi, Curve, 0x, PoolTogether, Valora, UMA, Moola Market, and Ubeswap. The collaboration is built on Celo. Alongside, the infrastructure partners are RabbitHole, Chainlink,  Wrapped.com, and The Graph. Reportedly, $100 million will be contributed for grants, education initiatives, and incentives. 

As per the reports, the fully integrated products with Sushi, PoolTogether, Moola Market, Valora, and Ubeswap are now available. A few more would be launched soon.
