UAE Agora and X Ventures launch Blockchain competition

X Ventures, German Venture Studio Fund X Ventures, and UAE Agora have launched a Blockchain competition for startups called the X Competition. The X Competition will give blockchain entrepreneurs the chance to win up to $2 million in funding, a business strategy workshop with renowned experts in Berlin, and exposure to over 50 VCs at the Agora 9th Edition Global Blockchain Congress, an invitation-only blockchain conference in Dubai on February 21-22, 2022.

Dehnadi, one of X Ventures' four partners, is “excited to partner with Agora to find, support and celebrate changemakers who dare to challenge the status quo”. Application deadline for participating at the X Competitio is February 7th 2022.

The X Competition is an online and on-stage pitch event aimed at global blockchain startups. "Within 5 phases, we aim to find the most promising teams and prepare them for future success," Dehnadi said.

Project teams are invited to send their pitch decks to participate@theXCompetition.io.

The top 10 projects will pitch during the online finals and compete for 5 VIP team tickets to the Global Blockchain Congress by Agora. The winner will also receive a free trip to the Congress for the entire team and dozens of 1:1 meetings with VCs. On the last day of the Congress, all 5 teams will be drilled on stage by a panel of experts, and the top 3 projects will be invited to a 3-day workshop in Berlin.

Dehnadi affirms, "At this point, you have attracted the interest of many investors, and you probably have a choice of whom to work with." The training is tailored to each of the projects and covers topics such as scaling companies, building business models and value propositions, customer journey mapping, fundraising and pitching, but is not limited to these.
