dlab was founded in 2018 to provide capital and resources to startups who are creating more open, transparent, and participatory systems using blockchains and other decentralization technologies. We provide up to $250k in venture funding to pre-seed and seed-stage startups across the globe through our fully-remote program and on-site venture studio in NYC.

In addition to providing capital, our team supports startups through a proven recipe of scheduled review and feedback sessions, mentor network interactions, and bespoke hands-on help in areas such as product architecture and design, UX, business development, and fundraising strategy.

As part of the SOSV accelerator family, founders have access to further follow-on funding opportunities from SOSV, a global alumni community network of over 2000 founders, and over $500k in perks from partners and leading infrastructure providers. SOSV also organizes frequent events to help you grow your product and business and identify and connect with syndicate investors.
