Ready to turn your business idea into the next big thing?

 

Block Dojo is a 12-week, in-person programme that helps evolve your business from an idea into an incorporated company that is revenue-generating. We are the UK’s top blockchain incubator having secured 24% of all UK blockchain funding rounds in 2022 (Beauhurst).

 

No idea about Blockchain Technology? We’ve got you covered!

 

Startups are considered “disruptors” not only because they displace products offered by traditional businesses, but because they change the way products or services are supplied. The versatility of blockchain technology is remarkable, making it suitable for a wide range of industries and use cases. Whether your business idea falls under finance, supply chain, healthcare, or energy; startups can leverage blockchain to create innovative solutions, tackle industry challenges, and drive positive change.

 

But building a startup is hard, this is why The Dojo surrounds you with a team of successful and seasoned entrepreneurs to help you avoid the many pitfalls and barriers to success. We also provide access to our ecosystem of 4,000+ angel and venture capital investors, 150+ mentors, and 200+ venture capital partners. We have delivered 5 x 12-week programmes, providing 600+ training sessions and raised over £10M investment for our startups.

 

If you have a strong business proposal, the Block Dojo will help you:

· Company Setup and Investment Preparation: We'll guide you through the process of setting up your company and preparing for investment. Our experts will provide the necessary support and resources to help you achieve your initial milestones, paving the way for future growth and scalability.

· Designers and developers for Prototype or MVP: Our team will work alongside you to build a high-quality prototype or Minimum Viable Product (MVP). This will enable you to showcase your product and attract early customers or investors, setting you on the path to success.

· R&D Partners for Market Feedback: We understand the importance of real-world market feedback. That's why we connect you with research and development partners who can act as your early clients and customers. Their

insights and input will help you refine and improve your product right from the start.

· Experienced Mentors and Advisors: Gain valuable guidance from mentors and advisors who have years of experience in your industry. They will provide you with expert advice, share their insights, and help you navigate the challenges specific to the problem you're solving.
