Kick-Speed Your ICO- A Description of the First ICO Accelerator Program (Iconiq Lab)

Abstract

This paper describes the creation of Iconiq Lab, an Initial Coin Offer and Token Launch (“ICO”) accelerator program. Iconiq Lab sources, funds, develops and accelerates carefully selected crypto, blockchain and tokenizable startups to their own ICO. Iconiq Lab will further create the exclusive ICNQ Club whose members have exclusive presale rights on accelerator program graduates. Iconiq Lab will issue 15,000,000 ICNQ Club membership tokens (of a total of 20,000,000) in exchange for an estimated equivalent of €11,000,000 in ETH in a January 2018 presale and subsequent public token sale to launch and scale the Iconiq Lab accelerator, with the first accelerator batch beginning in February 2018.
