Cronos, the first EVM-compatible layer-1 blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK, announced today the nine participants selected for the first cohort of its flagship $100M-backed Cronos Accelerator Program.

The Cronos Accelerator is a 10-week program designed to accelerate the growth of top project teams building on the Cronos chain. The Cronos Accelerator Program is funded by the $100M Cronos Ecosystem Fund and will feature 3-4 accelerator cohorts per year.

Since the official announcement of the Cronos Accelerator Program in June, Cronos received over 300 applications across a variety of DeFi, web3 gaming, and infrastructure projects.

Applicants were assessed based on their market potential, product attractiveness, team experience, and the synergies they have with Cronos Chain.

After a rigorous selection process, Cronos Labs has selected the following nine participants for its inaugural accelerator cohort:

1. D.G.Pals (Web3 Gaming)

D.G.Pals is an interoperable multi-game, multi-genre NFT web3 Gaming Project across V-pet simulator, 5v5 auto-battler, Virtual town, Simulation SLG Tower Defense.

These nine participants will be matched with reputable industry mentors who will be providing them with dedicated mentorship. Furthermore, these participants will benefit from weekly workshops led by Cronos labs and external subject matter experts, covering key topics relating to early-stage protocol building.

“Cronos is dedicated to supporting a vibrant and growing ecosystem of dApps and users of DeFi, GameFi, SocialFi, and infrastructure analytics. Ultimately, this first cohort of the Cronos Accelerator Programme established a precedent for our program to champion projects that have the potential to lead the way in engaging and onboarding the next generation of web3 users. We are eager to be working closely with these exceptional participants to fast track their growth on Cronos and beyond.”
