Proposed structure. Partner participation, the grant package and operating terms are agreed before launch.

Why this matters

Give builders a reason to show up.
Give them a reason to keep building.

Some teams have already engaged with Avalanche and need a practical next step. Others have a useful product and need an entry point into the ecosystem.

01 / VISIBILITY

A stage for the product

Demo Day brings founder stories, product demos and support requests to investors, co-hosts and media audiences.

02 / CONTEXT

A joint view of the work

Inspira’s screening and manual review combine with Team1’s ecosystem knowledge to establish what exists and what comes next.

03 / CONTINUITY

Support tied to progress

The founder knows what to deliver, how it will be checked and which resource follows the result.

The programme

Four phases. One connected path.

Demo Day is the core event. Preparation makes the stage useful; Milestone Desk turns the momentum into continued work.

Phase 01

Recruitment & preparation

Open applications and show the full opportunity around Demo Day.

What this produces

A project pool, partner contributions and clear application materials.

The support plan is agreed with the KPIs. Founders know the result, evidence and support conditions before starting the work.

Who participates

Reconnect existing builders.
Open the door to new teams.

The same quality criteria apply to both groups. Previous grant recipients receive priority in review; each team still needs to earn its place on the stage.

Proposed finalist allocation
70–80%

Existing Avalanche pipeline

Previously funded, reviewed or considered for support, including teams that need help finding their next step.

20–30%

New teams

A credible product and a practical Avalanche integration or deployment plan. Prior work on Avalanche is not required.

Allocation applies to finalist places. Suitable teams from either group can join Milestone Desk.

Joint admission criteria

A practical next result

  • Product or verifiable work appropriate to the current stage
  • Clear relevance to Avalanche and Team1 priorities
  • A committed team and realistic delivery plan
  • Evidence, previous commitments and material issues reviewed
  • Willingness to agree KPIs and provide completion evidence
What the application captures

Product, team, stage, working demo and technical links; previous Avalanche interactions, grants and commitments; work completed, blockers, support needed and the next product result.

New teams also explain why Avalanche, what will be integrated and who will deliver it.

Every application gets a review outcome.

The engine proposes findings. Inspira and Team1 review them manually.

01 / INSPIRA ENGINEGather context & test claims

Team, product, technical work, activity and Avalanche fit.

02 / INSPIRA REVIEWCheck findings & resolve gaps

Founder questions, evidence review and a recommendation.

03 / TEAM1 REVIEWConfirm the support path

Ecosystem context, previous commitments and selection.

Demo Day finalist

Stage + active Desk

Presentation preparation, public exposure and an individual KPI plan with attached rewards or support.

Suitable outside the lineup

An active support path

Review feedback and a Milestone Desk plan agreed with Team1 around achievable results.

Gaps or unsuitable now

A recorded decision

Clear reasons and, where gaps can be addressed, the information or conditions needed for reconsideration.

All applications are registered. Active KPI plans cover every finalist and other applicants meeting the shared criteria.

Make the screening work visible

Explain the screening harness, its stages, evidence and questions, and the manual contributions of both teams. An approved example shows the path from project information to a finding and a KPI plan.

Public materials describe the actual work performed and use information approved for sharing.

Founder announcement = participation

Every admitted team agrees its KPI plan and publishes a post or short video: what it is building, how it will work on Avalanche and the next result it intends to achieve.

This applies to finalists and other admitted applicants. Technical completion is checked separately through the agreed evidence.

Phase 03 / The core event

Put the product on the stage.

An online Demo Day in the 10X Founders format. Prepared founders show what they have built, explain their place on Avalanche and ask for the support needed next.

How the winner is selected

Hosts select one winner using criteria published before the event: product quality, ability to execute, Avalanche relevance, demonstrated progress and fit with the available support.

The acceleration scope identifies working sessions, deliverables and the result the winner should leave with.

Phase 04 / Continued support

Milestone Desk.
Progress with a defined next step.

A milestone is the result. A KPI defines completion. Evidence demonstrates it. The support plan explains what follows.
