Fascinating project! I'm curious what's the business model? it's listed on Crunchbase that you raised 12M$ so I'm assuming you do have plans to make money?

Curious as well. Searching around I found this documentation on their ecosystem [0], which may shed some light on the organization structure. It may be they are organized as a DAO? From the intro:

> Radworks is a community dedicated to cultivating internet freedom.

They do not shy away from cryptocurrency technology, though AFAICS that is not directly applied to the Radicle project. Another project of Radworks is Drips [1], to help fund open source.
