Outlier Ventures is scaling the largest multi-chain ecosystem of founders, investors, and experts in Web3. The Polygon (MATIC/USD) ecosystem emerged in 2021 as a core hub to scale apps based on Ethereum (ETH/USD). The value locked in the ecosystem exceeds $10 billion.
Outlier announces Polygon x Base Camp Accelerator
Outlier’s Polygon x Base Camp Accelerator, its third ecosystem cohort after the Polkadot (DOT/USD) and Filecoin (FIL/USD) Base Camp accelerators, is now open for applications. The intensive program will be launched at the start of next year. It will accept as many as eight teams.
The program aims to support founders with token design and implementation, fundraising, community growth, governance, business model innovation, and more.
The accelerator will also help founders who are developing their projects within the framework of Outlier Ventures’ Open Metaverse thesis with a toolkit for user-centered design alternatives based on the principle of sovereignty of data, identity, and funds.
Jamie Burke, founder and CEO of Outlier Ventures, commented on the collaboration:
Polygon have helped take the Ethereum ecosystem to the next level, making entirely new use cases possible that require ultra-low fee and high throughput transactions, so it was a natural partner for us to help accelerate the Web3 ecosystem.
Sandeep Nailwal, cofounder of Polygon, added:
As the leading solution for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development, It is vital to support and encourage development on Polygon as the network becomes essential for broader Web 3 growth. As such, we’re delighted that Polygon has been chosen for Outlier’s latest Accelerator program.
