SideQuest, the UK’s largest gaming cafe brand and an online gaming platform of over 180k community members, has been selected for season 7 of the Most Valuable Builder (MVB) Accelerator Program by Binance. The brand is the only web3 social project in the competition.
The 10-week accelerator program supports early-stage Web3 builders to grow and will conclude with a Binance Labs investment based on Demo Day pitches and project performance throughout MVB.
“For us, being one of the selected projects means not only receiving vital support and guidance for our vision but also validating the importance of fostering inclusive and vibrant gaming communities. With 3.9 billion active video game players globally, we believe the need for community will only become more important in the coming years.
We are implementing major changes to our business model to reflect the way the industry is shifting and are very excited to be part of Binance’s programme ” said Zhaorong Chen, CEO of SideQuest
The accelerator program ranks among the blockchain industry’s most competitive, with Season 7 attracting over 700 applications. However, only 13 teams, constituting 1.8% of the total applicant pool, were admitted.
