Target

The AIA Chain program aims to develop the AIA Chain ecosystem and empower founders and talented individuals who are committed to developing and launching transformative Dapps and products. AIA Chail is committed to unleashing the potential of candidates and assisting them in expanding the boundaries of the AIA Chain ecosystem. By the end of the program, candidates will not only have developed a comprehensive strategy, but will also be fully equipped to take innovative projects to the next level.

The AIA accelerator program is divided into three tracks

AIA Chain decentralized track

  • AIA Chain is driving AIA’s expansion in global strategic markets by recruiting visionary candidates. Candidates will be the cornerstones of growth, catalyzing the expansion of AIA Chain through venture capital-backed startups. The main goal is to increase the user base of AIA Chain and cultivate a prosperous local development community. Once a startup is ready to move to the next level, it's possible to attract a wider customer base and explore other venture capital opportunities.
  • Potential candidates are expected to develop and execute a strategic roadmap to increase AIA Chain’s influence. Performance will be measured against clearly defined key performance indicators (KPIs), with important key milestones triggering token incentives and competitive remuneration. After achieving major achievements, candidates may also have the opportunity to lead their projects within AIA Chain's expanding network.

AIA Chain Incubation Program

  • AIA Chain Labs and the AIA Chain Foundation have a few ideas that they would like to see come to fruition, however, every idea has a missing piece: a founder to drive it forward.
  • Designed to accelerate projects from initial stages to readiness for release, the AIA Accelerator Program provides candidates with a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in a range of projects with the potential for improvement. Potential candidates are expected to develop go-to-market strategies, organizational management strategies, technology development, product and fundraising from a business or technical perspective to realize projects that spark their passion and align with their expertise.

AIA Launchpad Program

  • In many cases, founders have already begun planning their projects. AIA Launchpad serves as a forging ground for consumer-facing applications, transforming early-stage projects into outstanding blockchain solutions. Candidates propose and develop DApps or products that target consumer needs. The idea will be evaluated from multiple perspectives including innovation, market adaptability, potential user needs, and ability to solve real problems. Candidate will need to outline a detailed project plan or engineering build and assemble a dedicated team
  • Achieving key milestones can expand the scope of the initiative. AIA provides comprehensive support to bring talent together into teams that can hone their skills and develop competitive, outstanding applications. Reaching these key milestones will trigger a financial infusion from the AIA Foundation, which includes capital investments, token grants, and audit assistance, while ensuring the project has a strategic stake in future wins through protocol tokens or equity participation.
