2 min read

Launchpool Labs, the first community-centric blockchain incubator that empowers all stakeholders in the crypto ecosystem to “be their own VC,” is announcing its first cohort of incubees, as per a release shared with CryptoSlate.

The chain-agnostic incubator for teams, builders, universities, dev hubs, and communities exists to help prepare founders for private fundraising and launch. Cohort1 includes five companies: NOWwhere, BrickTrade, MegaFans, Unicred, and Nifty Football, spanning NFTs, esports, real estate, and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) respectively.

“We are very excited to release our first cohort to the public. During the next three months, we will work closely with five hand-picked teams,”  said Roxana Nasoi, Managing Director at Launchpool Labs.

She added, “the Launchpool community is eager to be part of their journey, [and] we have amazing partners, advisors, and mentors ready to join and support each team with valuable technical, legal, operational, security, and marketing expertise.”

Launchpool Labs is aiming to incubate three to six projects each quarter, with four cohorts in the first year, starting with Cohort1. 

The Launchpool Labs incubator is part of the broader Launchpool Ecosystem, along with Launchpool’s pre-IDO guaranteed allocation platform and Launchpool Web3 Techstars Accelerator program with Alphabit Fund.

“This incubator meant a lot of work in the background, and we couldn’t have done it without the support of the entire Launchpool team and the agencies we work with,” explained Nasoi.
