Cointelegraph Accelerator, a startup booster leveraging Cointelegraph’s capabilities as a media and strategic partner, has announced the launch of the application process for its upcoming cohort, inviting innovative Web3 startups to apply for the program. The application period runs from October 24, 2024, to January 31, 2025, with the cohort set to commence in the first quarter of 2025.
The program supports early-stage crypto and blockchain companies by providing them with the necessary resources to scale. Selected startups receive seed investments and benefit from Cointelegraph’s extensive media reach, marketing expertise, industry connections and mentorship from seasoned professionals, positioning them for accelerated growth and success in the competitive Web3 landscape.
Cointelegraph Accelerator’s program structure is crafted to offer much more than just funding. Participants receive:
The accelerator program is seeking applications from projects that are innovating within key verticals poised to shape the future of the blockchain industry:
Projects focusing on innovative payment technologies that facilitate seamless, secure and cost-effective transactions using crypto and blockchain rails. These solutions aim to enhance global commerce by making financial exchanges more accessible and efficient for individuals and businesses.
Projects developing infrastructure solutions that serve as the backbone of blockchain technology. This includes advancements in blockchain protocols, DePIN, scalability solutions, infrastructure layers supporting AI and interoperability frameworks that enable other projects to build and thrive upon these foundations.
Projects creating decentralized protocols and platforms that provide alternatives to conventional banking, lending and investment services. By leveraging blockchain technology, these solutions aim to democratize finance, reduce reliance on intermediaries and empower users with greater control over their assets.
Projects that bring tangible items — such as securities, real estate and commodities — onto the blockchain through real-world asset tokenization. This integration allows for fractional ownership, improved liquidity and broader investment opportunities, making markets more inclusive and efficient.
Projects that develop solutions in areas like digital identity management, loyalty and rewards programs, social media platforms and content delivery networks. These applications aim to simplify user experiences, enhance security and offer new value propositions to everyday users, thereby accelerating the integration of blockchain technology into daily life.
The Accelerator is a 12-week intensive program conducted entirely remotely, providing flexibility and accessibility to startups worldwide. Despite being remote, the program includes offline meetups and demo days, offering valuable face-to-face networking opportunities and the chance to present projects to potential investors and partners.
During and upon completion of the program, startups will benefit from a media campaign lasting up to a year, leveraging Cointelegraph’s global reach to maintain momentum, increase brand awareness, and engage continuously with the broader blockchain community.
Emphasizing the program’s commitment to fostering innovation in the industry, Paul Solntsev, managing director of Cointelegraph Accelerator, highlighted:
“We are excited to launch the application stage for the new cohort and support pioneering projects that will shape the future of the crypto and blockchain industry. Our accelerator is committed to providing the capital, as well as the resources, network, and mentorship necessary for these projects to thrive.”
Cointelegraph’s CEO, Yana Prikhodchenko, highlighted the profound impact of the accelerator program, saying:
“At Cointelegraph, we’re redefining the role of media in the blockchain industry by actively participating in its growth. Through our accelerator program, we go beyond traditional media business and nurture groundbreaking projects. This initiative allows us to provide tangible value to the community of founders and investors to empower the next generation of blockchain pioneers.”
