About Founders Lab
Most startups that go through the Polkadot Blockchain Academy are in the ideation or MVP stage; they struggle to frame their products from a business perspective. The Polkadot Blockchain Academy prepares founders technically, to build on Polkadot. However, most founders need follow-up support with fundraising and establishing product market fit.
​
This unique program helps new Polkadot founders build products that add value to the ecosystem and become investment-ready. And it is paid by the Treasury of Polkadot.

The Problem
Thanks to the Polkadot Blockchain Academy, people gain the technical knowledge to build on Polkadot. However, more than technical knowledge is required to build a successful product on Polkadot. Founders must articulate their value proposition, get early product traction, discover product market fit, etc. These skills often need to be improved in most startup teams. PolkaBiz focuses on all the business aspects that founders need to know.
Our Solution
As founders, we deeply understand the challenges and solitude of building a company. We personally relate to the hurdles you encounter, from securing funding to forging partnerships and scaling your business. Therefore, in close collaboration with the PBA, we will launch an initial test of the PolkaBiz program designed to prepare a select group of founders for “investment readiness” ahead of Polkadot Decoded in Brussels (July 2024).
During the investment night (July 11) organized by PolkaBiz, our participants will be significantly better equipped to engage investors with a polished elevator pitch. Leading up to the event, we will collaborate with founders to refine their pitch decks, fine-tune their lite papers, and co-develop their business value propositions, ensuring they present their ideas in the most compelling way possible.
