We Prepare Startups For The World Of Blockchain at the Blockchain Accelerator Academy – London, England

Unlike typical accelerators and incubators, the collective is offering a lot more than just innovation branding at their programme and potential human resources for the future.

They are looking for corporate and government sponsors who want the following:

  1. Packaged corporate training program and shared market intelligence with our sponsoring partners – for example in a half or one-day seminar. Or live remote sessions with our pool of instructors and industry experts.
  2. Sharing protocol or platform within our accelerator programme to potentially help onboard new talent and new clients for you.
  3. We can offer you the opportunity to share intelligence via your own company resources to help educate our startups. 
  4. We can offer you cutting edge technology branding by participating.
  5. You can potentially onboard new talent or even acquire projects from our pool of innovators.

The Hardest Part Of Starting Up Is Starting Out

Blockchain is not easy – the technology is young, the knowledge is complex, the community is small. It’s not just about finance and technology but also includes elements of sociology, psychology, philosophy, game theory, and economics. For some, it’s not easy to learn, and there are few that can teach it. This is why Oracle hired us at Blockchain Partners three years ago – to solve that problem for them… we have been helping their staff globally understand Blockchain and it’s implications.

And the opportunities are massive.

The next-generation blockchain is potentially a viable platform for security, artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, e-government, and IoT, among many other applications.

  1. It’s a protocol that transcends many verticals and the Blockchain technology market is expected to increase by up to $2.3 Billion Dollars by the year 2021.
  2. And it has many use cases.

About Us

Blockchain Accelerator AcademyThe newly-formed Blockchain Accelerator Academy (BAA) is a European incubator and learning centre for Blockchain technology – created to help startups tap into blockchain technology for both technological and fundraising purposes. 

We help startups with the following:

  • Deep learning about Blockchain from some of the top educators and Ph.D.s associated with the industry.
  • Technology integration with existing startups that want to bring Blockchain into their project.
  • Teach startups how token sales (formerly known as Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) – or tokenised equity crowdfunding (some call them Security Token Offerings) can bring liquidity to both startups and investors.
  • Bring startups to traditional VC and Angel investors in our networks.
  • Give startups the rudimentary skills they need to grow a company.
  • We also offer advanced Token Architecture (utility tokens, security tokens, stable coins, and non-fungible tokens) for cutting-edge businesses and services.

Members of BAA have worked on over 100 Blockchain projects.

In a powerful collaboration, London’s The Accelerator Academy and The Accelerator Network – who have helped over 1000 startups over the years – have joined education company Blockchain Partners (Oracle partners), industry-leading Token.Agency, and media source Blockchain News (EST 2015) to build this programme.
