Global venture capital firm specializing in blockchain, Gate Ventures, announced the establishment of a $20 million fund aimed at driving innovation in the Web3 sector in collaboration with Movement Labs, a network of modular Move-based blockchains, and Boon Ventures, an investor specializing in emerging technology startups. This strategic partnership is set to invest in forward-thinking projects, accelerating the development of blockchain technologies built on the Move programming language and contributing to the ongoing evolution of decentralized ecosystems.
“This $20 million fund marks a significant milestone in our mission to drive forward-thinking solutions in the Web3 ecosystem,” said Kevin Yang, Managing Partner at Gate Ventures, in a written statement. “By collaborating with Movement Labs and other visionary projects, we’re paving the way for the future of decentralized technology,” he added.
The fund will prioritize four main areas: accelerating the adoption of Move-based blockchain solutions, improving security and performance in decentralized networks, supporting projects that bridge Move and Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) ecosystems, and fostering innovation in Web3 infrastructure and applications.
New Fund To Focus On Organizing Global Hackathons, Establishing Mentorship Programs, And Offering Research Grants
