BNB Chain has unveiled 35 early-stage projects selected for the eighth season of its Most Valuable Builder (MVB) Accelerator Program. This 4-week program, in collaboration with Binance Labs and CMC Labs, aims to empower Web3 builders with the resources needed to thrive on BNB Chain and bring the next billion users to Web3.

MVB Season 8: Key Highlights

The program officially started on October 28 with a two-day offline event in Dubai during Binance Blockchain Week. This event provided participants with networking opportunities with peers, mentors, and guest speakers. Throughout the program, founders will access a tailored curriculum covering crucial topics, including tokenomics, fundraising, team building, and scaling strategies.

The MVB Demo Day is scheduled for November 7 from 3 PM to 5 PM UTC, with live streaming available globally. Participants will present their projects to potential investors, with Binance Labs set to offer funding to top-performing teams.
