Additionally, projects will receive comprehensive advice on revenue projection, fundraising strategies, and developing a sustainable tokenomics model, all aimed at building a strong financial foundation.

“Through AEVOLVE Labs, we want to provide a conducive avenue for projects to innovate within the blockchain space. This requires close collaboration between our team and the projects, and the incubator is structured to help these projects address specific pain points while providing strategic support. We are confident that AEVOLVE Labs will empower these projects to lead, enhance, and develop Web3 use cases that will benefit the entire ecosystem,” said Hazel Zhang, Head of Investment at aelf.

AEVOLVE Labs welcomes projects from diverse sectors, and applicants will be evaluated against predefined criteria to assess their potential value.
