Welcome to the Hatchery – A one year program for Hackathon projects created by women and youth to incubate or ‘hatch’ where participating projects receive full support from mentors, educators, business leaders and entrepreneurs and get the opportunity to launch their projects as real businesses.
CryptoChicks are taking projects beyond the hackathon and putting them into a mentorship program to help develop them. Incubation will include mentorship from the best blockchain, AI and IT businesses, critique and feedback from judges, and investor outreach. In addition, the team to complete all program milestones and achieve the highest score will win a sustainability prize of $3000.
Throughout the year, Hatchery participants will work closely with
business mentors and participate in many business and development focused events.
