Arcanum Ventures is Backing Brinc
Many “crypto natives” speak of adoption and its effect on the industry, the technology, and their holdings. True adoption, however, comes from legacy businesses using blockchain to improve aspects such as logistics, data analytics, user acquisition, and engagement.
These integrations drive real industry adoption as they come with demand from real business use cases. Brinc, a global accelerator, is diving deeper into the world of cryptocurrency for these reasons, and Arcanum Ventures is happy to be along for the journey.
What is Brinc?
Brinc is a venture capital investment fund and accelerator firm, supporting startups that aim to address global challenges using innovative technology. The company has supported more than 1,000 startups in over 100 accelerator cohorts. Brinc focuses on companies across several impact-driven industries such as healthcare, climate technology, gaming, artificial intelligence, web3, and other sectors.
The company is based in Hong Kong and operates more than fifteen multidisciplinary accelerator programs across seven countries, providing investment, mentorship, and strategic networking opportunities to startups. Brinc’s primary focus is to empower companies, people, and products they regard as “game-changing.”
Brinc’s Web3 Involvement
Brinc has had a significant impact in the web3 industry by crafting key partnerships with Animoca Brands, The Sandbox, and other key innovators. They have launched numerous accelerator programs designed to promote growth in specific ecosystems such as Aurora, Boba Network, XDC Network, and more.
The company recognizes the need for greater connectivity and improved access to resources within the emerging industry of Web3 technologies. They are wholly dedicated to embracing blockchain technologies and digital assets to support both founders and investors in their network.
Arcanum Ventures Advisory Support
Arcanum Ventures was previously supporting Brinc across its accelerator program cohorts. The two organizations are now closely collaborating across several key focus areas, most notably tokenomics and strategic advisory. The advisory firm is working closely with the Brinc team to conceptualize and model the digital asset use cases behind their Brinc Ecosystem token.
Additionally, the firm is actively working with the Brinc team to support other aspects of the business, such as marketing strategy, business development, fundraising, and product strategy. The following are some specific examples of support being provided:
- Token Economy Design: Arcanum Ventures is conceptualizing and modeling Brinc’s unique digital asset economy. Token use cases focus on startup and investor onboarding into Brinc’s network, where these users can access incredible products and services.
- Business Development: The advisory firm is actively connecting the Brinc team with industry experts and professionals to aid in their digital asset launch timeline. Additionally, the firm is onboarding investors who recognize Brinc’s future impact across the web3 industry.
- Strategic Advisory: Arcanum Ventures is also supporting Brinc across marketing strategy, product development, and other aspects that tie into the digital asset economy. The firm’s support focuses on user experience, sustainability, and achieving Brinc’s company objectives.
Manav Gupta, Founder and CEO of Brinc, had this to say about the partnership…
“Working with Sasha and Carmelo from Arcanum Ventures has been a truly rewarding experience. Their deep insight and hands-on expertise in Web3 perfectly complemented Brinc’s global platform for early-stage innovation. They played a key role in helping us shape the tokenomics for $BRQ, the token that will power our upcoming VentureVerse platform. This collaboration felt natural from the start, and together, we’re pushing the boundaries of how digital assets can drive real value across ecosystems.”
Sasha Asheghi, Founding Partner of Arcanum Ventures, is quoted as saying…
“Brinc has a strong legacy in the startup acceleration sphere. They have a proven track record and major staying power. This incredible team is a pleasure to work with; their professionalism is refreshing. Especially, when compared to the lack of execution and enterprise focus that we’ve seen frequently within the web3 and blockchain industries.“
