Meet the Projects Accelerating Web3 Adoption

TL;DR:

The IOTA Tenity RWA Accelerator Program is a Singapore-based initiative aimed at nurturing entrepreneurial talent in the IOTA EVM ecosystem. It has now selected six final participants who will deploy on the IOTA EVM with solutions including Real World Asset tokenization, Digital Product Passports, and Digital Identity. In the Accelerator, each project will receive a $50,000 grant, expert guidance, and networking opportunities, culminating in September in a Demo Day at Token2049.

After a successful application phase, six projects have been chosen for the IOTA Tenity RWA Accelerator Program, an initiative by the IOTA Ecosystem DLT Foundation and Tenity, a global innovation ecosystem and early-stage investor located in Singapore.

The projects will all deploy on IOTA EVM, the fully EVM-compatible Layer 2 solution for the IOTA network, where they are set to drive Real World Asset tokenization, digital product passports, and digital identity solutions targeting governments, educational institutions, enterprises, and retail users.

The startups will be guided through the Accelerator Program by a combination of online and in-person sessions. The six teams will receive grants of $50,000 each, mentorship, and support to meet each startup’s needs, including their go-to-market strategy, fundraising, and networking opportunities. The Accelerator culminates on September 17th in a Demo Day ahead of Token2049, where they will present their projects to venture capital funds and the Web3 community. With the support of experienced members and the collaborative spirit of the cohort, an environment has been established where growth and success are fostered equally.

So let’s introduce the six finalists. Not only are they pushing the boundaries of RWA tokenization, Digital Product Passports, and Digital Identity, but, by deploying on IOTA EVM, they’re accelerating the utilization of IOTA EVM and the mass adoption of Web3 technology.

BlackFrog

The renewable energy transition will increase the demand for critical minerals like copper and cobalt by up to 300% by 2030. Industrial mines can’t meet this demand alone, necessitating small-scale mining to fill the supply gap. However, small-scale miners lack access to international financial markets. BlackFrog – a new IotaOrigin project – addresses this by providing pre-financing through loans, bonds, and commodity-backed yield-bearing stablecoins via its RWA launchpad. It enables retail investors to enter the critical minerals market by tokenizing these assets and offering interest on held commodities. BlackFrog has a first-mover advantage in financing small-scale mines through the RWA launchpad, while the IOTA EVM ecosystem benefits from tradable yield-bearing stablecoins backed by commodities.

Orobo
