soonami Venturethon Edition 8 Winners
The eighth edition of soonami Venturethon brought together more than 500 builders from around the world with over 260 projects. During the 10-day program, participants developed new solutions in AI and Web3 technology, turning their concepts into working projects.
At soonami we believe exceptional builders exist everywhere - irrespective of the geographical background. That's why we conduct soonami Venturethon every 8-12 weeks. This startup launchpad creates opportunities for AI and Web3 projects in their earliest stages, connecting builders with the resources they need to succeed.
As we wrap our September Venturethon edition, we're excited to announce our winning teams. These selected projects now have the chance to join Cohort 8, alongside other selected projects to get $125k in funding from the soonami ecosystem [provided they stick with the program and make it post Investment Committee (IC)]
