Polkadot Head Ambassador Irina Karagyar has signed a MOU with the Founder Institute and is seeking the support of the community via Referendum #755 on the OpenGov Wish for Change track. The Founder Institute is the world’s largest pre-seed startup accelerator. Founder Institute Alumni have raised a total $1.75 billion in funding to create a portfolio of companies worth in excess of $30 billion. The MOU proposes a strategic collaboration with Polkadot for the inaugural Web3 cohort of their pre-seed acceleration Core Program. Web3 Startup founders in the cohort will be able to benefit from the mentorship of Polkadot ecosystem experts, while Polkadot gains the opportunity to showcase its technology to promising new projects and build its presence in the Founder Institute network.
