Figure 2- Selection criteria
In the event that a particular theme emerges during the evaluation of the applications, it could be chosen to illustrate this experimentation session and influence the evaluation categories by taking into account the compatibility of the project with it.
The Sandkëscht team will review all files and projects and draw up a list of eligible projects with an opinion for the attention of the CNPD Board for confirmation of applications admitted to the regulatory sandbox.
