Outlier Ventures Welcomes Seven Teams to Real World Assets Base Camp
London, United Kingdom, November 26th, 2024, Chainwire
- Outlier Ventures launches the second RWA Base Camp Accelerator program to support early-stage founders. The RWA Base Camp will double down on startups building infrastructure, applications, and products that will fuel the mainstream adoption of tokenized real-world assets (RWA) across industries.
- The RWA Base Camp, in collaboration with Singularity Finance, will support startups that are building the required infrastructure, applications, and products to fuel the mainstream adoption of tokenized RWA across industries.
- The 12-week virtual accelerator program will include workshops with subject matter experts from Outlier Ventures and Singularity Finance and mentorship from industry experts.
Outlier Ventures is pleased to announce the seven teams participating in the RWA Base Camp accelerator program. Over twelve weeks, the cohort will receive hands-on support from Outlier Ventures’ top-tier experts across various areas, including marketing, advisory, token design, engineering, investment, fundraising, and more, along with guidance and investment from Venture Partner, Singularity Finance.
As major banking players make strides into the RWA blockchain space, tokenizing RWAs continues to explore novel methods to bridge the gap between crypto and traditional financial markets. This innovation is set to transform industries as blockchain technology becomes increasingly integrated into society over the next decade. A recent study projects the RWA tokenization market will grow from $118 billion to $10 trillion by 2030. In 2023, we articulated our vision for RWA in our thesis “Tokenization Of RWAs: Beyond The Hype”, followed by a hugely successful first cohort. Outlier Ventures remains bullish on building infrastructure, applications, and products to fuel the mainstream adoption of tokenized RWA across industries.
Katie Lundie, RWA Base Camp Accelerator Lead, Outlier Ventures, said “We’re excited to announce the launch of our second RWA Base Camp, aimed at accelerating the adoption of tokenized real-world assets across industries. In partnership with Singularity Finance, this program offers expert support in areas like legal frameworks, token design, community building, tokenomics, fundraising, pitch decks, and mentorship. The selected teams were chosen with founders representing some of the most promising early-stage startups pioneering the next generation of RWA solutions, including tokenized commodities, NFTs, digital identities, and more.”
Cloris Chen, CEO, Singularity Finance, said: “We are excited to support the Real World Assets Base Camp with Outlier Ventures and guide the founders through Outlier Ventures’ second accelerator program. As real-world assets continue to gain momentum and recognition within both the Web3 startup ecosystem and mainstream markets, we are eager to back the talented founders who have joined this program.”
Mario Casiraghi, Co-Founder of Singularity Finance, stated: “Our partnership with Outlier Ventures for the RWA Base Camp is a testament to our commitment to advancing the tokenisation of real-world assets. By supporting these talented founders, we aim to drive meaningful innovation at the intersection of blockchain, AI, and traditional finance, paving the way for the widespread adoption of tokenised assets across industries.”
