VeChain

The team at VeChain says it’s launching an accelerator program designed to help developers and companies build on the platform.

“We want all parties in the VeChain ecosystem to become a self-sufficient business and this means there is a need for a lot more than initial funding support. Therefore, following the bounty program, the VeChain Accelerator Program aims to provide the support needed as projects progress to becoming a successful business built on the VeChainThor Blockchain.

The Accelerator Program not only includes a grant but more importantly it provides the accepted projects with exposure to the resources in the ecosystem, ranging from business leads, incubation, investment opportunities, market awareness, technical support, and professional services. VeChain Foundation is committed to working with its partners within the network to support the projects at various stages.”
