Recently, Generative Ventures launched a new investment fund and incubator aimed at the "Machine Economies" era, dedicated to building trustless networks and becoming the preferred partner for entrepreneurs in the value network and open intelligence fields.
Building a "trustless intermediary network" was the initial vision of early blockchain developers, and they attempted to ultimately achieve this through cryptography and decentralized technology. The community has gained a deeper understanding of the importance of this initial vision through multiple cycles of evolution (including the elimination of trusted intermediaries with excessive leverage and lack of supervision). The Generative Ventures team believes that the encrypted network does not need to redefine Internet applications, but should focus on redefining value and circulation efficiency, and can more bravely face the urgent need for open intelligence in the era of machine economy. Especially now, in the era of strong artificial intelligence, information decision-making processes and even the entire production and consumption process of humanity are handed over to billions of computing devices and automated robots. This will not only lead to a leap in productivity, but also bring about huge changes in production relations, and involve how to face and manage machine networks in an open and controllable manner.
With the digitalization and intelligence penetration of various industries, humans are taking big steps into a new economic paradigm driven by machines, which is manifested in disruptive changes in business models, capital markets, and legal supervision. Generative Ventures is committed to exploring the following four themes (new economy, new finance, new culture, new paradigm) together with builders and multinational corporations.
1. How to enable the next billion-level users to enjoy competitive products and services of trustless digital assets and digital finance?
2. How to participate in and build a global collaborative model based on builder co-construction, and unleash productivity far beyond existing collaboration methods?
3. How to define and lead the cultural direction of the next generation of digital original consumers, and create a brand new creator economy system?
4. How to actively embrace the productivity and changes in production relationships brought about by the era of strong artificial intelligence within a trust-free framework?
Generative Ventures was established with investment from the largest media group in Europe and several Asian internet entrepreneurs. It has completed a first round of funding of tens of millions of dollars and has begun actively exploring the large-scale implementation of digital assets and real-world scenarios in collaboration with the largest financial and retail groups in Europe and Asia, such as in the exploration of RWA and prediction markets.
In terms of project investment and incubation, AegisWeb3 is the first project split by Peckshield and led by Generative Ventures (incubation). It aims to become the preferred security plug-in for hundreds of millions of on-chain asset traders. Since its launch, it has been used by more than 200,000 core trading users, solving the basic security problems of the machine economy era. Furthermore, Generative Ventures will launch an ecological entrepreneurship support plan jointly supported by the Ethereum Layer 2 network Taiko, actively promoting the innovation and development of multiple mainstream Layer 2 applications, especially in the fields of global payment networks, high-frequency financial trading platforms, and game consumption, solving the efficiency problems of information and value circulation in the machine economy era.
In supporting entrepreneurs' financing needs, "Web3 Connect" is a Eurasian Demo Day financing platform created by the Generative Ventures team. Its first event in 2022 attracted 20 high-quality projects from Eurasia, with over 1,200 investors participating online. Recently, the team has also organized various activities for builders, such as the Hacker House during EthCC.
The founding team of Generative Ventures has over 10 years of experience in internet investment and management of crypto unicorns. They have invested in over 40 internet and industry unicorns, with a total managed asset size of over 3 billion US dollars. The fields involved include social networks, digital finance, artificial intelligence, and enterprise services, among others.
