Group Mentorship: Founders meet weekly to share progress and challenges. Founders help each other identify solutions and potential challenges with support from Cryptan Labs.

Demo Day: 6 weeks into the program companies start working on their demo day presentations. Then, on week 8, startups present to our network and graduate from the program capped with an in person event typically at a major conference.

We currently have >1% acceptance rate.

Founders are sometimes selected on their 2nd or 3rd application so we encourage you to apply again if you’re not selected.
