1 Fellowship & 1 Bootcamp

don't sleep on these

Hey there, it’s been a while (I know). We’ve been heads down building out the club & its various projects, so we haven’t been as community-facing as we would’ve wanted to :(

But, we plan to host a community event for students, founders, & professors in the space (keep an eye out). With that being said, here are 2 cool opportunities:

Variant Founder Fellowship

Our favorite web3 VC fund announced their inaugural Variant Founder Fellowship for emerging crypto founders (pre-seed or earlier) who have an existing idea or prototype and need support bringing it to the next level.

Applications are now open! You can find more information here.

If you apply, tell them you came from the Illini Blockchain community ;)

buildspace Bootcamp

For those of you who want to bring an idea you to life, sign up for Buildspace’s 6-week bootcamp. Get a structure, access to top mentors, IRL events, and all the support you need to build. Ends with a 3-day trip to Dubai or LA.

BTW, it doesn’t matter the scope or industry of the idea. All that matters is that you want to build.

Sign up here (applications due 3/31)

That’s all I got. See you soon.
