PRESS RELEASE: 17 July 2023

Fractional IP, an intellectual property consultancy firm, is announcing its strategic collaboration with Adaverse, a leading Web3 investor, and Cardano Accelerator in Africa and Asia. Adaverse supports blockchain founders in scaling their Web3 solutions by providing funding, mentorship, and essential tech infrastructure. Adaverse and Fractional IP, using their proprietary solution PMA Canvas will work together to develop and protect Web3 innovative solutions, ensuring their strategic commercialisation and long-term success.

As the internet evolves, Web3 is and will continue to revolutionise the digital landscape with its decentralised attributes and advanced technologies such as blockchain, virtual realities, machine learning, and general AI. It offers a decentralised and blockchain-based reality for many of our current value systems, enabling greater autonomy, security, and efficiency. Cryptocurrencies play a vital role in Web3 services, while AI empowers intelligent and adaptive web experiences.

Recognising the significance of Intellectual Property (IP) in this rapidly evolving space, Adaverse has partnered with Fractional IP to provide comprehensive support to Web3 startups. Protecting and managing IP rights is crucial for maintaining a competitive advantage and maximising the potential for success. By bridging the gap between ideation and final output, this collaboration will ensure qualitative and valuable research outcomes. This will cover not only IP protection and strategy building but also make the research fit for commercialisation by creating a research culture that veers away from reinventing the wheel. Fractional IP looks forward to working with Adaverse and its Startup School to assist innovators in bringing their ideas to market.

As the Web3 space continues to evolve, the collaboration between Adaverse and Fractional IP is poised to drive innovation, enable the protection of IP, and accelerate the growth of Web3 startups in Africa and Asia.
