0xEssential enables digital asset ownership through portability and offers tools and platforms that help create NFTs. The company was founded in 2021 and is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, United States.

At 3Box Labs, we are on a mission to usher in a new era for the web, where data is secure, interactions are trustworthy, and relationships are the basis of connection. Our first product, Ceramic, is the building block for composable data on the web and is powering thousands of the world's most ambitious applications. We're backed by the best investors in the space (USV, Placeholder, Variant, Multicoin) who have deep conviction in our mission. We are a lean, voraciously curious team from across the globe. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We cannot succeed in our mission without it. People that identify with groups traditionally underrepresented in tech are particularly encouraged to apply.

Afterparty is a creator community platform. We give the most innovative creators, artists, and builders in Web3 the tools for delivering world-class experiences to their biggest fans. For the first time ever, fans get to participate in the success of their favorite artists and creators.

Agoric is committed to making strong security easier to achieve. Creating secure smart contracts using today’s technology is inherently difficult. That difficulty has limited both the number of applications created and the number of programmers qualified to create them. We are developing an open, JavaScript-based, Object-Capability (OCAP) programming layer to address both issues. The Agoric OCAP layer will include robust security properties beyond anything available today, and it will provide that security across substrates, from local machines to global blockchains.

🌐 Akave: Bringing Humanity's Datasets On-Chain 🌐 At Akave, we're pioneering the future of data management as the first Layer 2 storage chain that enables on-chain data lakes. Verified by zk-proofs and built on Filecoin, our mission is to bring humanity's datasets on-chain by simplifying and securing decentralized data storage. We're bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3 and making scalable, decentralized AI a reality.

Anjuna created the first universal confidential computing platform to run applications in any cloud with complete data security and privacy. Anjuna Seaglass isolates workloads in a hardware-assisted environment that intrinsically secures data in every state to create a zero trust environment for code and data. Anjuna Seaglass empowers enterprises to directly control application-level trust policies, ensuring that only trusted code can access sensitive data. Anjuna works with enterprises around the globe in industries such as financial services, government, and blockchain.

We believe decentralized infrastructure is an opportunity north of a trillion dollars. However, there is an extremely narrow set of conditions by which this outcome is realized. We view this as an opportunity to create substantial amounts of value. If you’re a capital allocator looking to get a pulse on decentralized infrastructure, reach out. We spend our time working with builders across the stack (storage, retrieval, compute, DA layers, etc.) - we’d love to share what we know and what we’re seeing. If you’re a builder or ecosystem working on decentralizing the cloud, we’d love to chat. We’re here to help accelerate roadmaps, make connections, amplify great projects, and drive awareness.

We're building a radically improved, local-first tool for people who value their data. Use Anytype to make dashboards, projects, and knowledge graphs - all without sacrificing your privacy. Anytype is proudly: E2E encrypted Local-first No code P2P synced Open source

Public goods are essential for thriving communities and a sustainable planet. But so far, we haven't really had a fair, reliable, community-owned model for funding them at scale. We're changing that with the Artizen Fund - a Web3-based system connecting grant-makers, donors, and creators to fund the projects and causes that matter most to our communities.

Audius' mission is to create a fully decentralized community of artists, developers, and listeners collaborating to share and defend the world’s music. To find out more, please visit: https://audius.org and https://audius.co Artists deserve more.

Āut is an extendable protocol designed to power the next generation of human coordination. The DAOs 2.0, if you like, or a DAO renaissance. It does so by "expanding" any standard DAO contract - with custom membership modules on top. Āut is a protocol that expands any DAO’s legacy contract (i.e.: a Moloch DAO), bringing expandable, customizable membership and governance modules at contract level for Web3 communities. At its core, it adds the native concept of role and interaction at contract level - so that each member of a community is represented in a much more multidimensional, richer way - other than a flat 0x… address. Currently, together with the protocol, the Āut suite has a few products available: - Āut Expander: to integrate Āut, add roles and expand DAO membership. - DĀUT: a decentralized authentication system for DAOs. - Āutboard: a DAO OS, to manage members, tasks and community modules. - (My) ĀutID: a public profile and portfolio for self-sovereign, non-transferable NFT.
