Last week, we concluded our 2nd full cohort of our dWeb Fellowship with 68 participants. Over 6 weeks we had fellows participate from across the continent with in-person socials in Kenya, South Africa, and Nigeria. They worked in engineering, design, marketing, and operations. More than half of the cohort already worked in Web3 for companies like Consenys, Protocol Labs, Opera, and Luno.
Some examples include:
During the fellowship, we had:

Next cohort:
We started recruiting today for our next cohort, which will begin in early November. Because the fellowship isn't focused on networking, not technical training, we target people who are either 1) already working on Web3 or 2) senior enough to easily transition.
Applications are currently invite-only. If you’re interested, you can learn more about the fellowship and submit your interest here. We’ll reach out to schedule an intro call if it looks like a potential fit. We have a very small team and limited bandwidth, so my apologies in advance if we don’t reach out to schedule a call with you.
Our goal with the selection process is to curate a mix of participants that have aligned goals but also a diversity of expertise compared to those already accepted. Either way, we’ll keep you informed of awesome Web3 events, insights, and jobs.
Hope to see you at an upcoming event soon!
