Applications Are Now Closed. Thank you to all of the applicants!

Blockchain and the Metaverse are rethinking the ways we do business. From new patterns of consumer behavior to a talent migration for the ages, it’s clear that the present applications of these new technologies are only scratching the surface—from DAOS to social media platforms and social wallets. Philly Startup Leaders is excited to apply its Founded in Philly framework to this emerging sector, and welcome not only new founders, but thought leaders in the space to be speakers, mentors and evaluators and ensure our founders are on the right path to success.

This focused, 12-week program equips growth-stage founders with the knowledge, network, and agility they need to grow their businesses, while offering funding channels and partnership opportunities for future growth. Most importantly, our program seeks to promote equitable entrepreneurship in this emerging industry through access and visibility.

The program includes weekly sessions, office hours, extracurricular activities, and access to opportunities to promote your business at PSL events and through channel partnerships secured through our organization.

The details: 10 startups selected | September 27 through December 14 | Tuesday Evenings | 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM | $25 to apply | $350 - $700 sliding scale participation fee per startup; payment plans available
