SAN MATEO, Calif., May 25, 2022
SAN MATEO, Calif., May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- EvoNexus, California's premier non-profit technology incubator in San Diego and Silicon Valley, is seeking new applicants, following a successful two years since the launch of the Silicon Valley FinTech Incubator in San Mateo, with Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) and founding sponsor Franklin Templeton. Early-stage companies in the incubator have access to unprecedented collaboration opportunities and funding. Applications are evaluated on a rolling basis by key stakeholders at these entities.
EvoNexus, RBC, and Franklin Templeton seek early-stage fintech applicants for Silicon Valley FinTech Incubator.
Since the EvoNexus FinTech Incubator launched in 2019, 17 FinTech startups have benefited from directly involvement with Franklin Templeton and/or RBC experts. In 2021, EvoNexus portfolio companies, raised over $530 million and saw $1 billion across 7 exits. 15% of companies that join EvoNexus exit via merger or acquisition, and 85% achieve venture capital funding.
Alongside EvoNexus, Franklin Templeton and RBC consider startups, focused on, but not limited to, the broad applications of cryptocurrency (from storage to payments to asset tokenization), the NFT landscape, driving ESG-minded investment decisions, democratizing access to traditionally hard-to-enter asset classes, protecting assets through innovative cybersecurity measures, and utilizing AI to make smarter and more timely investment decisions.
"Our 3-year partnership launching the fintech incubation program with Franklin Templeton and EvoNexus in California, has yielded significant value through introductions to early-stage ventures that would have otherwise not appeared on our radar screen," states Eddy Ortiz, VP of Innovation & Solution Acceleration at RBC. "The EvoNexus incubation program provides startups with the tools they need to engage with RBC in areas of interest that matter to us."
"Startups benefit from Franklin Templeton's expertise in running and scaling a global asset management business. Additionally, they can learn a lot from our experience with the regulatory environment," said Joe Boerio, EVP, Chief Risk & Transformation Officer at Franklin Templeton. "Conversely, we learn from the startups, gaining understanding of their new methods, techniques and abilities to approach a market in a very different way."
The Silicon Valley FinTech Incubator sits on the San Mateo campus of Franklin Templeton. Franklin Templeton provides startups in this incubator a minimum of $150,000 (SAFE) in seed funding.
