Immersion Investing
The blockchain ecosystem is highly autonomous and for a startup to grow in such uncertain conditions, funding is not the “do-all.” Blockchain startups need much more than just money - they need the resources, tools, and knowledge necessary to execute plans and strategies. This is where the role of SevenX comes into play.

SevenX doesn’t just provide blockchain startups with the bucks, but also strategic consulting services. The entrepreneurs get an opportunity to understand the industry as an omniscient spectator - an external view. Furthermore, SevenX attempts to understand the problems and challenges that the entrepreneurs face, thereby finding solutions and opportunities accordingly. And that’s where SevenX provides all-around help and why SevenX has come up with an “immersion investing” strategy.

The team’s bid to provide growth opportunities and foster entrepreneurs has helped shape its “immersion investing” strategy. Take DODO as an example, a decentralized exchange platform powered by the Proactive Market Maker (PMM) algorithm. As the angel and private round investor, SevenX has provided DODO with consulting services, including strategy, community, fundraising, and token economic design, making the 1-year-old product one of the top digital assets DEX globally. SevenX also assisted Mask.io in the global market, connected with leading crypto funds; helped Darwinia reposition as “Polkadot‘s Golden Gate Bridge” to enhance market awareness.

Looking forward
The rise of any industry is due to the efforts of countless entrepreneurs, and SevenX Ventures will further capitalize on the next wave of crypto innovators and entrepreneurs. In doing so, SevenX Ventures appreciates the efforts of all and welcomes more and more entrepreneurs to join the SevenX family and be a part of the miraculous change that the world is witnessing at the moment.
