BNB Chain is officially extending the application deadline for the European Innovation Incubator. With hundreds of applicants and overwhelming interest in participation within the region, we want to give you every opportunity to become a part of our incubator.

Applications will now be accepted until October 30th, apply today.

Crafting Your Pitch or Application

A must for any entrepreneur or developer at the beginning of their exciting journey, is the ability to tell a story through their product. This is relevant to both applications for exciting programs and exchanges with prospective investors.

While we’ll have plenty of exciting VCs at all of European Innovation Incubator events, we understand that they will have had their fair share of projects approaching them with a novel idea. This means that they operate quickly and decisively. What should be clear for you then is an ability to make your relevant project pitch crystal clear within minutes.  

Mission Minded

Before listing all the exciting features of your project you need to be able to articulate your mission in a coherent and concise sentence. The strength of this mission will speak volumes to interested investors who will immediately recognize not only your determination but also a sense of direction.

Problem Solvers

What problem is your project directly addressing? The term ‘problem’ can be versatile here, whether you’re finalizing a gaming product that allows players to unshackle themselves from traditional models and begin earning, or even an infra project that will make user experience more seamless. The key is to be clear in what you are addressing. Identify why your project offers an alternative that is not currently available on the market.

Solution

That magic moment when your idea first came to pass will be key here. What is it about your value proposition that makes your project an unmissable one. Think about the impact you intend to have on the market here, and how you will get there.

The Time is Now

What makes this the prime moment for your project to receive expert support and investment. Consider the journey you have been on so far and what has led you to this moment. Why has there not been previous similar efforts and what is it about the market that makes this the right time to strike.

Industry trends are important here, but more than that it is your ability to position yourself as primed to impact Web3.

Market Size & Competition

We can consider market size here and think a little more about your target audience. Are you looking to tussle for market share with particular projects? What are you offering that will equip you with the means to acquire a healthy market share? These are questions you must be clear on as you continue to work on and grow your exciting project.

Consider your direct and indirect competitors here. Think of the business models that have performed well and offer a framework as to how you will be able to combat these competitors. This is about your ability to know your competitor and distinguish yourself.

Sustainable Business Model

How exactly do you intend to grow and make money? Think of the different avenues that you are exploring and point out how they will be sustainable into the future. Including key metrics here such as current userbase and prospective TVL potential will be important.

Team

While there is no ‘I’ in team there are certainly a lot of eyes on your team. The people you have around your project are some of the most important indicators for prospective investors. Consider why the team you have put together is exactly what is needed to help your project thrive.

You will want to highlight specific skill sets and experiences here that distinguish the strength of your particular team. For all you know this may not be the last project you produce that garners investment from the organizations you are pitching to.  

Good Luck!

We want to wish you all the very best with your application and we look forward to working alongside you throughout the duration of the BNB Chain European Innovation Incubator. Make sure you take your chance to help your project reach its full potential by applying here.
