🦒 We Jia-raffes are excited to announce that Jia has been selected as a grantee in the The Arbitrum Foundation RWA Innovation Grants program! 🎉

This grant isn’t just about pushing the boundaries of blockchain technology — it’s about making a real difference for entrepreneurs in emerging markets who need access to capital to grow their businesses. At Jia, our mission is to provide that access, and this opportunity allows us to deepen our impact.

For us, it’s not about blockchain for the sake of tech; it’s about using this technology to support real businesses and real people. Whether it’s a small business like African Originals in Kenya securing funds to double their revenue or foodpanda mom-and-pop restaurants in the Philippines getting the boost to take their business to the next level, the work we’re doing is about more than innovation — it’s about economic empowerment.

This grant will help us continue to build and scale solutions that directly benefit entrepreneurs who are working tirelessly to make their visions a reality. These are the people who drive economic growth, create jobs, and build stronger communities. We’re proud to be part of a program that recognizes the importance of real-world impact.

Thank you to Arbitrum, Areta and the Expert Committee for believing in our mission. And a huge congratulations to our fellow grantees DoDAO, Frictionless Markets, PYOR - Power Your Own Research, Mystic Finance, Truflation, Infinity, and Backed Finance AG — together, we’re showing that blockchain can be a force for good, creating tangible benefits where they’re needed most.

Here’s to deepening capital markets and empowering entrepreneurs to achieve their dreams. Build on! 🚀

🙏 Colin Cunningham from ChainLink, Jonathan Espinosa from Securitize.io, Manuela Warnier and Sophia Shluger from PV01, Shrey Rastogi from Libre Capital, Eli Cohen from Centrifuge, and Adam Lawrence from RWA.xyz, Arbitrum News (Community Channel)
