We brought together over 500 founders, builders, and investors during Devconnect, giving startups center stage and putting all investor eyes on them. Thanks to the massive support of TON, OKX, and X Layer, founders and builders are now positioned to reach their next milestones.

Special thanks to other event partners for making Startup Palacio a huge success during Devconnect: Protocol Labs, Peanut Trade, Perle Labs, Galaxy, PL Capital, and Supermoon Ventures. 

The event also featured in-depth discussions including how TON provides builders with access to billions of users led by Angela Brasington and Evgeniia Smelova. A followup panel, The future of TON mini apps, added Elias Enriquez (Houdini Swap) and Adam Adamov (TONCO) to the mix.

The founders rushed to watch a special investment panel that covered how founders can launch and not fail in the current fundraising climate. The panel was led by Jessie Xiao (Starknet) featuring Jules Nguyen (Galaxy Ventures), Lacey Wisdom (PL Capital), Shen Chen (X Layer), and Alex Momot (Peanut Trade). 

The event has culminated with the Rapid Fire Pitch Session, followed by networking reception where founders and builders had an opportunity to connect with leading ecosystems’ representatives, investors, and other established personas.
