Overview

The IOSG Ventures Entrepreneur in Residence (EIR) Program is an in-person founder program for very early Web3 builders. IOSG positions it as earlier than its Kickstarter Program: EIR is for individuals still refining ideas, researching markets, testing hypotheses, building an MVP, and forming a venture-scale product direction before a formal funding round. The official page describes a six-month program across Hong Kong, Shenzhen, New York, San Francisco, and Singapore. EIRs receive compensation during the program, weekly one-on-one mentorship from senior IOSG members, market and product thesis support, MVP prototyping support, and access to IOSG's global founder, investor, and partner network. Successful EIRs may later secure up to $100,000 through the IOSG Kickstarter Program.
