The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) plans to initiate the ICP Hub Accelerator Program in 2024, with the objective of assisting nascent blockchain enterprises in converting their ideas into solutions that are ready for the market.
The objective of this effort is to establish a strong and dynamic network of blockchain pioneers and promote technological progress within the ICP community.
The program serves as more than simply an accelerator; it provides comprehensive support to successful candidates throughout the entire process, starting from the first idea and culminating in the development of a fully functional solution on the Internet Computer.
The Waves3 Accelerator Program 2024 provides a systematic approach for blockchain initiatives, leading participants through the process of developing and expanding their technology.
The program commences with Phase 1, when the primary objective is to transform the user’s concept into a Minimum Viable Product (MVP). During a span of 90 days, individuals will participate in educational sessions, workshops, and mentorship opportunities with the goal of improving their ideas and initiating the development process.
The commencement of Phase 1 of the launch will be initiated by a hackathon conducted in collaboration with Open Internet Summer. Teams from many countries will take part in materializing their ideas, increasing their exposure, recruiting skilled blockchain developers, and maybe securing funding from DFINITY or investors like Lunar Capital.
Weekly feedback evaluations will offer vital input from peers and mentors, aiding in the refinement of the concept and strategy for each project.
Phase 1’s successful completion paves the way for Phase 2, which involves expanding the project and becoming ready to enter the market. This phase integrates both online and offline activity, providing sophisticated assistance for business development, tactics for market positioning, and preparation for a token launch.
The courses will provide detailed and comprehensive information on important subjects such as tokenomics, compliance, marketing tactics, and user experience design.
Community interaction will have a significant impact as initiatives receive input and backing from the ICP community, leading to final presentations and proposals for token launches on the Service Nervous System (SNS).
An outstanding characteristic of the ICP Hub Accelerator Program 2024 is its adaptability. Concurrent execution of Phase 1 and Phase 2 guarantees tailored support for each participant.
Projects that achieve success will be incorporated into the ICP ecosystem and will receive continual support and exposure from ICP Hub Portugal. This includes gaining access to a network of investors, forming strategic collaborations, and engaging with the community on an ongoing basis.
