Every Web3 project is fiercely competing for developer talent, but we’re not doing enough to expand the pool. Whether it’s exploring untapped geographies or onboarding talented Web2 developers, there’s a huge opportunity we’re missing. I recently spoke with Cecilia H., founder of Morph L2, about why her team is focusing on India and China for growth—and what other projects can learn from this approach.

We have so many early-stage Web3 builders in soonami.io GmbH cohorts, and I always give them this advice in our sessions when they are looking at growing in this crazy space: - Show up and speak up about your product whenever you get a chance. Ask a question, ask for feedback. Someone is always listening: a future user, investor, or partner. - When you enter a room, do as much research as possible about people there and have high-quality conversations. This is how people will remember you. - No one can substitute founder-led BD, sales, or marketing. Once you ace it, your team or next hire will ace it. You can't delegate it right away. - Your community will make or break your product. You cannot scale this growth in the early stages or even later, IMO. You have to spend time with them one-on-one. - Actions > Words. This is how you will attract the right partners, investors, and users. By the way, I follow all the above rules myself.

🤯 What a day of ideas! Yesterday's Pitch Your Ideas event showcased the talent of our Venturethon builders. Right off the bat, we saw some really cool Web3 and AI projects getting built! 🙏 Thanks to our mentors and judges - Diksha Dutta, Mark Findlater, Duncan Ross, Jens Hewald, Parry Sondhi, and Christian Sauer for providing invaluable feedback and insights, engaging in thought-provoking discussions with the participants 🌐 👏 Lastly, a big kudos to all the builders who pitched their ideas during the session. We are off to a great start! 📅 Missed out on pitching? Don't worry! Another session is scheduled for next week. Stay tuned for details!
