sqrDAO

sqrDAO is a private community of founders, investors and builders working on Web3 projects from Vietnam and the wider Southeast Asia region. Its investing activity is community-driven: it backs projects founded by its own members at the pre-seed and seed stages, alongside practical support, curated connections and collaboration between technical and non-technical builders. The group does not operate as a conventional venture fund; the investment function sits within a membership structure that also carries mentorship, networks and resources intended to help teams ship products.

Alongside investing, sqrDAO runs structured accelerator programmes for early-stage Web3 startups. Its principal programme, sqrBUIDL, is designed to help promising founders build production-ready teams. The group also operates sqrNODE, validator infrastructure, and sqrAI, a set of AI tools. Physical and convening assets include the Da Nang Blockchain Hub, a space for Web3 founders and developers, and the Web3 Builders' Summit, an annual gathering of builders organised by sqrDAO.

The community reports more than 100 active members, over 4,400 builder attendees, 300-plus local events hosted, 40-plus co-hosts and partners, and 50-plus speakers and mentors. Technical domains span Web3 development, blockchain, validator infrastructure, AI tooling and startup acceleration. Geographic focus is concentrated on Vietnam and Southeast Asia, with Da Nang as a physical anchor.
