TEA Partners Tribe Accelerator to Drive Education
Token Economy Association has partnered with Tribe Accelerator to educate startups on fintech and blockchain programmes in Singapore.
Singapore-based Token Economy Association (TEA) has partnered with government-backed blockchain accelerator Tribe Accelerator to drive education of both fintech and blockchain programmes for startups, and to act as another catalyst for the mass adoption of blockchain in Singapore.
«As Singapore’s first government-backed blockchain accelerator, the expertise that they bring to the program will be very beneficial to developing the knowledge and expertise of our students,» said Chia Hock Lai (pictured left), Chairman of TEA Singapore, said in a media release.
Next Generation of Start-Ups
As part of Trive Ventures – a Southeast Asia focused Venture Capital (VC) firm based in Singapore – the partnership will see Tribe Accelerator share their expertise on venture capitalism as part of the programmes. The training programmes will run from February this year.
Members of Tribe Accelerator will serve as mentors, and sit on the judging panel for assessment projects, as well as for a hackathon, which marks the culmination of the Fintech Fundamentals Programmes.
Opportunity to Advance
Promising projects from the hackathon will get an opportunity to advance on to the Tribe Accelerator, Singapore’s first government-backed blockchain accelerator, which was recently launched by Trive in December 2018.
