Wanchain and Chain Accelerator Establish Collaboration in France
We are excited to begin a collaboration with Chain Accelerator which will provide a unique opportunity to work with upcoming, innovative blockchain startups that have set to revolutionize the way finance works. Wanchain will be able to provide the blockchain infrastructure for the projects to unleash their full potential utilizing cross-chain technology.
In addition, Wanchain entering Station F (which houses Chain Accelerator) will allow us to have a new European office in the heart of the Paris startup scene. This office will be located a few steps away from Station F’s onsite startup programs. We will also gain access to speaking opportunities at local events (like our recent presentation at PwC’s blockchain event in Paris) where we’ll be able to explain our technology and our vision to an array of passionate entrepreneurs.
We believe this collaboration will be key to fostering new innovation and we are excited to work with our newfound partners so that together we can help shape the new decentralized financial system.
Chain Accelerator and Station F
Chain Accelerator is the biggest blockchain accelerator in Europe. It provides end to end support for blockchain startups with services such as technical support, mentorship or marketing. Chain Accelerator is partnering with PwC, Havas, as well as universities around the world. Chain Accelerator is located in the prestigious Station F campus, the world’s biggest incubator. This innovation hub is the home of startup programs from companies such as Facebook, Microsoft, Ubisoft, France’s biggest bank BNP Paribas.
“Chain Accelerator is proud to work with Wanchain in France, hosting another blockchain inside our accelerator reinforces our unique positioning in Europe as we become the place where startups, corporates, blockchains and universities work together to make the world more safe, transparent and connected by using blockchain technologies,” says Chain Accelerator’s co-founder Nicolas Cantu.
Wanchain’s Vision and Upcoming Product Launch
Wanchain’s vision is to connect and empower communities. We believe this can be achieved by providing key infrastructure that will allow for a new digital economy to form. This system will be based on key pillars such as financial inclusion, transparency and decentralization. At its core, Wanchain is a blockchain platform that enables decentralized transfer of value between blockchains. Wanchain currently enables cross-chain transactions with Ethereum, and our next product launch in December 2018 will enable the same functionalities with Bitcoin and ERC20 Tokens (e.g. MakerDAO’s Dai). Going forward, we will continue to bridge blockchains and bring cross-chain finance functionality to companies in the industry. Wanchain has employees globally with offices in Beijing (China), Austin (USA), and London (UK).
