Æ Ventures – a blockchain-focused investment firm specialised in investing, providing acceleration and advices for startups – disclosed that the Starfleet Accelerator program reached $1.6M in investments, and is available to register for the 3rd round. 

Specifically, the 3rd round of Starfleet Accelerator program will be held in Malta, which will be bringing upon its registered member mentorship and investment chances, which can shoot up to $100,000. 

The program is reportedly planned to be rolled out somewhere in the beginning of November this year, and any blockchain-based startup wishes to enter is required to register by October 20.

The program will be kickstarted with a “Genesis Week” – the name that is used by the Starfleet Accelerator – which is a timeframe when “participating startups receive access to mentorship and support in areas such as business models, token economics, blockchain infrastructure, and æternity apps architecture, from the best experts in the industry.”

The firm further made public that its first program of next year will be taking place in India. 

“We are amazed at the growth of the Starfleet accelerator program from its start to now and we can’t wait to launch the third edition with new companies breaking blockchain barriers. […] Hosting the program in Malta and India presents new opportunities to engage the burgeoning blockchain culture in these regions and we’re proud to continue to foster global blockchain growth through these communities.” Æ Ventures CEO Nikola Stojanow remarked regarding the development.
