TON Accelerator Program’s First Cohort Participants
TON Foundation Demo Day
On June 14, 2023, 8 teams in the TON ecosystem were invited to demo their products to an audience of investors and strategic partners. These teams were selected for the demo day based on these key criteria:
Leverage the unique capabilities of the TON blockchain; Built a working MVP of their product; Aspire towards a commercial product that users want; and Exhibit the spirit and quality of TON ecosystem builders.
Now that the event is behind us, we recognize the demo day as a huge success. The participants had a unique opportunity to showcase their projects to an audience of investors and strategic partners while gaining valuable feedback, presentation experience, and visibility.
You can now rewatch the recording of our Demo Day on Youtube.
