Monad MFR plans to debut in Asia: focusing on user rise, registration channel is now open.

The Monad Foundry "NYC 2.2" event has just concluded in New York, and the Monad Foundation has swiftly taken its ecological construction efforts into the Asian market with a brand new incubation program tailored specifically for early encryption teams — the Monad Founder Residency: Growth (hereinafter referred to as MFR) officially launched in Singapore.

As one of the major global support programs launched by the Monad Foundation, MFR focuses on the theme of "Growth" and aims to provide early-stage encryption startup teams with a high-intensity, comprehensive growth platform. During the event, participants will be able to initiate real user activities and quickly respond to optimize product narratives based on activity feedback, ultimately showcasing project results to top encryption investors on Demo Day.

At the same time, participants throughout the event will receive intensive guidance from top Web3 experts to achieve breakthrough rise from prototype to mature business. It is reported that the Monad Foundation will invite more than 200 investors to participate in this program, assisting startup teams in rapid growth through this deep connection, and creating innovative projects with strong market potential.

The event will be conducted in two batches, with 10 outstanding projects selected from global applicants in each batch to gather at the Network School in Forest City, Malaysia. The registration channel is now open, and we welcome developers who have joined the Monad ecosystem or are interested in building based on the Monad ecosystem to read the full article for more information about the event.

An island, two batches, three weeks.

Who can sign up to participate in this event?

Monad welcomes all founders who are seriously building products to register and participate; all ecosystems can participate.

As long as your product has a certain level of user activity (even if it's just in the initial stage), your product has been deployed or intends to be deployed based on Monad, and you are willing to seize this opportunity to quickly enhance your skills in a results-oriented environment, you can submit an application.

However, it is important to note that this program is specifically designed for product teams that can rapidly develop, test, and iterate. Designers, developers, and product managers can all participate, but please ensure that they possess efficient execution capabilities to better adapt to the fast growth pace.

Event content

Participants can initiate 2 - 3 real user acquisition activities, connecting users, communities, and projects through the activities, building feedback loops, rise metrics, and optimizing user retention.

During this process, participants will interact daily with top Web3 rise mentors, establish deep connections with technical founders in the Monad ecosystem, and join a long-term community composed of founders, operators, and investors to continuously optimize product narrative capabilities, content output capabilities, product updating capabilities, and user retention conversion.

On the last day of the event, Demo Day, participants will have the opportunity to present their projects to 200 selected Web3 investors, gain valuable advice from a first-level perspective, and have the chance for potential funding.
