However, the biggest roadblock in the adoption and success of these applications have most often been the lack of knowledge and support beyond the global fintech community. Binance is one such brand that aims to develop an ecosystem of Blockchain and cryptocurrency around the world.
The two new wings under Binance that aims to carry the torch of Blockchain around the world are Binance Lab and Binance Academy.
Binance Labs: BUIDLing The Ecosystem of Blockchain Start-ups
The Binance Labs is a venture subsidiary of Binance that aims to incubate, fund and empower Blockchain and cryptocurrency based start-ups. The biggest problems that even the best of the ideas and teams face during the early phases of a start-up is funding and proper mentorship.
Binance is focused on solving the most critical problems facing the blockchain industry by putting an emphasis on mentorship, guidance, and education. $500k for a 10% stake is most often a good deal for both parties.
Currently, two batches of around 8-10 start-ups have been incubated by the Binance Labs. Ella Zhang has been appointed as the CEO of Binance Lab. Contentos, Nym Technologies, Decore, and SafePal are some of the top projects currently working with Binance Labs.
These are classified under the accelerator programs that help the start-ups during their early phases. Binance Labs also announced a fellowship grant of $15,000 to three open-source Fellowship projects on 12th April 2019. The start-ups which received the grant are Ironbelly, HOPR and Kitsune Wallet.
