About Alliance

Alliance is the leading crypto accelerator and founder community. Since early 2020, we've helped the top 1% of crypto founders start and grow their companies. We do so through a 12-week program that culminates in Demo Day, the most prestigious Web3 spotlight. Alliance Accelerator graduates gain entry to Alliance DAO, an alumni community of exceptional crypto founders.

Origin Story

Alliance started in early 2020 as the “DeFi Alliance” working with founders who were building the very first decentralized finance applications. By helping these early projects source liquidity from professional trading firms, they became market leaders with a combined valuation of over a billion dollars. Leveraging our early success, we broadened our mission and now offer best-in-class acceleration across all verticals in crypto.

Here they’ll find continued support from one another, from Alliance mentors, as well as access to exclusive tools including our community web app (”Space”), where they can connect with fellow founders and more.
