DeFi Base Camp: Introducing Cohort 1
When we first announced our partnership with Outlier Ventures to create its first DeFi Accelerator Program on November 30, 2021, we stated our goal of launching 30–40 projects over the next two years. Today, we’re one step closer to that goal and we’re excited to finally announce our first Cohort of projects!
Cohort 1 includes Obey, Sumeria, Diversifi, Lazy Trade, Bright Union, and IdentDeFi.
What is DeFi Base Camp?
DeFi Base Camp is a bi-annual Accelerator Program created in collaboration with Outlier Ventures, the leading Web3 accelerator. This partnership aims to amplify DeFi innovation by leveraging both ours and Outlier Venture’s existing network of builders, investors, and smart contract developers to help launch a new breed of next-generation DeFi applications.
