支持斯坦福的區塊鏈生態系統及其他

A venture fund operating out of Stanford University's blockchain community has completed the raise of its inaugural fund.

一家在斯坦福大學區塊鏈社區運營的風險基金已經完成了其就職基金的加薪。

Blockchain Builders, which focuses on pre-seed and seed investments in startups emerging from Stanford and other top-tier institutions, has closed its first fund at $28 million.

區塊鏈建築商的重點是從斯坦福大學和其他頂級機構出現的初創公司的預種植和種子投資，該公司已將其第一筆基金收入為2800萬美元。

The fund, which is led by Stanford graduate students Gil Rosen, Kun Peng, and Steven Willinger, has already invested more than $16 million into 40 startups.

該基金由斯坦福大學研究生Gil Rosen，Kun Peng和Steven Willinger領導，已經為40家創業公司投資了超過1600萬美元。

The portfolio spans sectors such as decentralized finance, artificial intelligence, payments, and decentralized infrastructure. Some of the startups in the portfolio include modular AI blockchain 0G, distributed computing firm Nexus Labs, open-access AI cloud platform Hyperbolic, and Layer-1 protocol Pod.

投資組合跨越了分散的金融，人工智能，支付和分散基礎設施等部門。投資組合中的某些初創公司包括模塊化AI區塊鏈0G，分佈式計算公司Nexus Labs，開放訪問AI雲平台雙曲線和1層協議POD。

The team is aiming to deploy the remaining capital by the end of the year, with several portfolio companies preparing for their token generation events.

該團隊的目標是在今年年底之前部署剩餘的資金，其中幾家投資組合公司為其代幣發電活動做準備。

Blending academia with hands-on venture capital

將學術界與動手風險投資融合

Blockchain Builders Fund is deeply integrated with Stanford's blockchain initiatives. The team is behind the university's Blockchain Accelerator, the MS&E 447 course on blockchain entrepreneurship, and the Blockchain Application Stanford Summit (BASS) conference series. These efforts have helped over 200 founders and 400 students while drawing nearly 5,000 attendees cumulatively.
