The Growth Engine of the Crypto Economy
Colosseum is an organization that integrates three pillars: Hackathon, Accelerator, and Venture Fund.
Colosseum runs online hackathons (and now the Eternal challenge) for the Solana Foundation and the broader ecosystem. We believe these competitions are the best mechanism for attracting and discovering the most talented crypto builders globally. Our five-week hackathon provides founding teams a level playing field to showcase their potential to build crypto startups that will substantially increase onchain activity.
Our accelerator is hybrid, with two weeks in-person in San Francisco, and the other six weeks online. The program is designed for hackathon and Eternal winners to become embedded in the Solana ecosystem, join an elite founder community, and receive 1:1 mentorship to reach breakout momentum with their startups.
Founding teams accepted into the accelerator will receive an upfront investment of $250,000 from Colosseum. The accelerator program culminates with a private Demo Day where founders will pitch their products to top VCs.
