Frequently Asked Questions
We are looking for highly determined and full-time founders.
You can either build a Web3-by-design solution or investigate how blockchain can change your business.
You deeply care about privacy, trust and governance to build a product that people want.
You have already built a MVP that people want.
Applications open from September 16th until October 20th 2023, EOD.
We don't charge any fee. The program is entirely free and we don't take equity.
In return, we expect founders to ensure they have the time and motivation to attend the sessions and work with mentors.
Full commitment during the program's 4 months is the key of success.
We don't make any equity deal.
If fundraising is part of your strategy, we help you connect with our network of investors - especially during Demo Day.
Our next batch starts on Nov 2nd, 2023.
The program relies on 5 pillards: 1:1 coaching, workshop, weekly mastermind, openclassroom and demo day.
→ 1:1 Coaching: startups receive 1:1 mentorship from iExec & H7 mentors. At times, this can also result in intros to experts in our extended network, depending on the problem at hand.
→ Workshop: twice a month, startups meet with dedicated iExec experts to share best practices on sales, monetization, product, legal and tech aspects.
→ Weekly Mastermind: founders meet weekly to share progress and challenges. Founders help each other identify solutions with support from iExec & H7 Team.
→ Openclassroom: we run 1 session per month where top-notch builders from our community share their stories and learnings as Web3 operators. This is typically followed by a Q&A.
→ Demo Day: get a chance to pitch at the end of the incubator in front of clients, potential partners or investors.
The program is mostly remote, with the exception of the launch party and the demoday, when we gather in-person in Lyon.
We also often host in-person social events with the help of H7 Community – where you have the opportunity to meet and connect with peers –, but these are optional.
Foreign founders welcome!
That being said, we look forward to your attendance at the launch party and Demo Day, both of which will be held at H7 in Lyon, France.
