About Us

Who We Are

Founded in 2016, Nova Chain Ventures was established to identify, develop, and support high-impact blockchain initiatives with real-world utility. The firm operates at the intersection of capital, research, and execution — combining strategic investment with hands-on venture building.

Over the years, Nova Chain has deployed over $790,000 into internal ventures, pilot programs, and strategic initiatives across fintech, decentralized infrastructure, digital identity, and emerging market solutions. Our approach emphasizes long-term value creation, disciplined capital allocation, and deep technical understanding.

We partner closely with builders, researchers, and ecosystem participants to transform early ideas into scalable platforms — providing more than capital, but strategic guidance, network access, and operational insight.
