ValleyDAO

ValleyDAO is a pioneering community venture dedicated to addressing critical climate and food challenges through the funding of academic research in the field of synthetic biology and industrial biotechnology ($250,000 funding). Founded in 2022 and headquartered in Switzerland, the organization believes in the power of collaboration and interdisciplinary efforts in the complex field of synthetic biology. ValleyDAO aims to dissolve academic silos and grant researchers access to an expert community for early-stage research development and funding. The startup offers research funding, intellectual property incubation, and an expert community network to support researchers in aligning their work with business objectives and ensuring viable commercial outcomes ($GROW tokens). Members of ValleyDAO are more than participants; they are co-owners, earning shares or digital tokens ($GROW) in the organization with voting rights, fostering deep engagement and active involvement in the collective mission. ValleyDAO's most recent venture round investment took place on 01 April 2023, with True Ventures participating as the investor. The startup encourages researchers to apply for funding and individuals interested in joining the community to sign up through their website. The unique mission and approach of ValleyDAO position it as an innovative player in the biotechnology, finance, and sustainability industries. Visit valleydao.bio/grow for more information.
