As part of Waves’ plans to expand its platform and ecosystem over the coming year, we are proud to launch the Waves Lab : a blockchain technology incubator that will focus on pre-ICO startups and teams who are creating disruptive solutions to real-world problems using the Waves Platform’s infrastructure.
Comprehensive assistance
We will be providing full support for businesses and entrepreneurs who meet our requirements, ensuring that their projects get off to a flying start. This help will include:
- Seed funding
- Legal support
- Advice
- Resources
- PR & Marketing
Funding
Ensuring that a project is well-funded is critical for its long-term success. Additionally, securing early funding is a strong indicator to the market that a project is worth backing with additional tranches of investment at its public sale. Waves Lab will provide seed funding of up to $300,000 for the right initiatives.
Legal Support
In the fast-moving regulatory environment crypto currently occupies, it is imperative that blockchain projects are fully up-to-date with compliance requirements. Additionally, Waves is committed to maintaining best practice for the ICOs held on its platform wherever possible.
Waves Lab will provide extensive assistance in this area, including the token model and its legal implications, as well as the content/language of the white paper and website landing page; a full set of legal documents including Token Purchase Agreement, Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy; and finally consultation on any relevant legal aspects of the project by external attorneys with experience of supporting ICOs.
Advisory
Regulatory compliance is only one element of ensuring the success of an ICO project. Waves Lab will also provide a series of advisory services covering elements of the business case, such as:
- Technical architecture review
- Product market fit
- Token economics
- ICO advisory
- Exchange listing advisory
Additional resources
As one of the foremost blockchain platforms, Waves has a wide range of contacts and considerable influence within the wider crypto industry. We will leverage these connections to help projects expand their reach in the blockchain world.
PR & Marketing
Lastly, we will help with the activity required to communicate and promote your project to the grassroots crypto community, including:
- Devising your PR & Marketing strategy.
- Carrying out niche forum PR activities.
- Undertaking complex ICO community management with SMM.
- Establishing personal connections with key opinion leaders, trend setters, influencers and other advisors.
- Linking you with 50+ ICO tracking websites, with no waiting list.
