Cardano provides several important components for real life applications, e.g. identity solutions (Atala Prism).

Germany is seeking to set up a decentralized education system. Identity wallets will be part of such a solution. I tried to get in contact with the Cardano Foundation to participate in the prototyping phase but they didn't react. However, it's exactly a use Case for Atala Prism.

I see massive potential for Cardano based solutions. Hopefully the companies behind Cardano scale up their partnership departments.

Most of their development is enabled via partnership. In-fact smart contact and new hard fork is result of partnership - https://iohk.io/en/blog/posts/2021/05/12/developers-add-musc...

Anyone here exactly building something with this platform?

I have the same question. It would be great to know some use cases and more insights into who are among those 1000 developers
