Little more than a week ago, Radix Tokens (Jersey) proudly announced the six projects that would be participating in the pilot launch of the Radix Grants Program. After a week of celebrations and preparation, the selected candidates are ready to kick things off.
What’s Coming Up?
Inspired by Y Combinator, the 12-week program is designed to support projects across a number of areas and help entrepreneurs in maturing and developing their ideas into successful in-market products. Expanding focus from just financial support, the Radix Grants Program shares the collective experience and know-how of senior members of the RDX Works team, both in and out of the crypto space, and is ultimately set on supporting great dApps getting to market on Radix.
As part of the program, the team will be on-hand to offer support, guidance, and direction for successful projects to make the most out of the opportunities presented through DeFi and Web3.
This week, the teams behind the selected projects will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the program and have introductions with key executives from RDX Works. During week 2, the teams will partake in a 1-week in-person boot camp in the stunning surrounds of Austria, where they’ll be accompanied by executive and core members of the RDX Works team, and have the opportunity to meet each other in person too.
Following week 2, the teams will have regular weekly sessions – including masterclasses, 1-1’s, access to office hours with the RDX Works teams, collaborative group sessions, and help with user testing. To round off their 12-week progression, each of the six teams will have the ultimate final experience of taking their projects center stage alongside Radix at one of the world’s biggest crypto events, Consensus 2023, in Austin, Texas, from April 26-28. To find out more about the event, head here.
The teams will also each receive 30,000 USD in XRD tokens in support of their project and extensive promotion to the wider Radix community via official Radix channels.
