“With incubation, Binance Labs aims to connect projects with Binance’s network of resources, experts, and mentors to help them drive successful product development and growth. Binance Labs runs its Incubation Program regularly and is currently supporting its fourth cohort.

Early-stage venture investments include token and equity investments across all sectors of cryptocurrency and Web 3.0, including infrastructure, DeFi [decentralized finance], NFTs [non-fungible tokens], gaming, Metaverse, social, and crypto adoption platforms.

Late-state growth investments target more mature companies looking to scale or bridge into the Web 3.0 ecosystem with the Binane ecosystem as a solid strategic partner.”

As stated by the Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao,

“In a Web3 environment, the connection between values, people, and economies is essential, and if these three elements come together to build an ecosystem, that will accelerate the mass adoption of the blockchain technology and crypto.

The goal of the newly closed investment fund is to discover and support projects and founders with the potential to build and to lead Web3 across DeFi, NFTs, gaming, Metaverse, social, and more.”
