Colosseum seamlessly integrates three pillars: Hackathon, Accelerator, and Venture Fund.
Colosseum runs online hackathons to grow crypto’s grassroots startup ecosystem. We believe these competitions are the best mechanism for attracting and discovering the most talented builders globally. Our four-week hackathons provide founding teams a level playing field to showcase their potential to build startups that substantially increase onchain activity.
Our accelerator program is hybrid, with two weeks in-person at our office in San Francisco, and the other six weeks online. The program is designed for hackathon and Eternal winners to become embedded in the crypto ecosystem, join an exclusive founder community, and receive 1:1 mentorship to generate breakout momentum.
Founding teams accepted into the accelerator will receive an upfront investment of $250,000 from Colosseum’s venture fund. The accelerator program culminates with a private Demo Day where founders pitch their products to top VCs.
