Judging Criteria

Submissions will be evaluated based on the following:

- Ecosystem Impact: how significantly does the project contribute to the Solana ecosystem?

We're looking for projects that add real value and have a reason to exist on Solana specifically.

- Product-Market Fit: does the project address a genuine need for a defined user base?

Is the problem clear, and does the solution actually solve it?

- Technical Quality: how sound is the technical implementation on Solana?

Architecture, efficiency, and the quality of the build matter here.

- Growth Potential: what's the project's ability to attract users and scale adoption?

Is there a realistic distribution strategy, or just an idea without a path to users?

Who Should Apply

Early-stage founders, developers, engineers, students, and other operators. Anyone ready to build on Solana and move from idea to execution.

Our Role

Superteam Balkan provides:

- 1:1 mentorship from the ecosystem experts and Solana builders

- Post-program support for teams looking to raise or keep building
