Keyrock and Tenity create accelerator programs for Web3 and fintech startups

The program is open for applications and will conclude with a Demo Day event in December 2023 where startups will compete for investments of up to €100k from Keyrock.

“Keyrock exists to empower tokenized economies. For the past 5 years, we have worked closely with partners at all stages of their development to increase the usefulness of digital assets to end users. The next logical step is to support them from the very beginning, to ensure that the best players have all the support they need to maximize their chances of success We are very pleased to be working with Tenity and are keen to put Brussels at the center of digital asset innovation, at a time when the EU is positioning itself as a leader with the MiCA framework, says Kevin de Patoul, CEO and co-founder of Keyrock.

The accelerator program’s mission is to equip startups, especially web3 natives, with the essential tools to flourish, as this industry does not have the same standard of investors, infrastructure and funding as other industries. Fintech’s native innovators will gain a unique insight into what the Web3 world can offer and how companies operating on the edge of both sectors can maximize their opportunities.

The 4-month program is now open for applications and will start in early September 2023 in Belgium. During the program, startups will benefit from a well-structured program, including masterclasses facilitated by industry experts, personal coaching and mentorship. From technical prototyping and scaling to finance, sales and marketing. Keyrock and Tentity will also open up their network of global partners to help startups build relevant connections outside their respective industries.

“I am incredibly excited about this partnership between Keyrock and Tenity, especially as Keyrock was part of the 2020 Tenity program. This collaboration is a testament to our shared commitment to nurturing the next generation of innovators, and I am confident that together, we will have a lasting impact on the web3 and fintech landscape.” said Marc Hauser, head of Tenity Switzerland.

Keyrock and Tenity will identify and admit web3 and fintech startups to the program focusing on core technology areas such as financial infrastructure, decentralized finance, asset tokenization and data tools.

Applications for the Keyrock Accelerator Program are now open, and interested startups are encouraged to apply. Keyrock will cover travel and accommodation expenses for those who participate.
