The program aims to invest in companies operating in verticals such as data ownership, Web3 privacy tools, NFTs, cryptocurrency platforms, blockchain technology, and DeFi.
According to McKinsey’s Web3 report, the financial-services industry has primarily adopted some of these nascent digital technologies and assets. At its peak, the daily volume of transactions processed on so-called decentralized finance exchanges exceeded $10 billion, with various market fluctuations felt in the last twelve months, providing entry and exit opportunities for investors and market participants.
Remittances, asset swaps, trade finance, and insurance have all begun to employ smart contracts to achieve automation efficiencies. At the same time, lending, a vertical we are interested in, may demonstrate one of the most effective implementations of Web3 to date.
Global Millennial Capital Ltd (“Global”), an emerging technology and digital assets investment manager, has established itself as a venture capital firm with a track record in investing in fintech and web3 companies since 2020. The recently launched initiative, Global Millennial Web3 Investment Program, aims to accelerate emerging companies to their full potential.
Andreea Danila, Founder, and General Partner at Global Millennial Capital Ltd., shared:
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of our investment program aimed at investing and accelerating visionary technology companies operating in the Web3, Defi, and blockchain verticals, with a specific emphasis on financial services applications, among others. In addition to the typical acceleration program benefits, which include mentorship, hackathons, regulatory sandbox conversations, and strategic ecosystem connections, Global will deploy its resources to enable Series A companies to access various markets across the Middle East and Africa, from the United Arab Emirates.”

An Inclusive and Sustainable Future in Venture Capital Using Data-Driven Investment Decisions
Various digital transformations have led to exponential growth in machine-readable information, or digital data, over the internet. Knowing the impact of the digital economy, Global adopts data models, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence tools to enhance the traditional investment process. Global believes that digitalization has encouraged new forms of collaboration among economic agents in the sharing economy, which has a disruptive impact on the role of conventional financial institutions. The investment style adopted by Global is highly inclusive, leading to improved socioeconomic outcomes through venture capital investments.
