As desirable as getting a leg amputated before you get into starting
position in a race.
If you involve such organization and their funding you will be bogged down
in endless (and fruitless) discussions, waste your energy in a zillion of useless sub-committees, spend most of your funds on unproductive talkfests, and you have to tip-toe through minefields of political correctness where it

becomes impossible to tell idiots that they are idiots and instead you have to allow them to waste your time.

I think I have learnt a lot from past mistakes. What I think would work is a

small private investment buying software contractors's time to implement specific tasks within a specific time frame.
