Tweed, a web3 digital payments startup, is powering a new event registration platform for Intel Ignite, Intel Corporation’s global startup accelerator program for early-stage deep tech startups. The integration, built on the Solana network, is designed to streamline Intel Ignite’s event processes – bringing a deep technological approach to in-person events by creating a bridge between the digital and physical worlds of Intel Ignite’s startup community programming.

The launch gives Intel Ignite the opportunity to have a fully integrated event registration platform on its website, without the need for external third party applications, allowing for Intel Ignite to fully own the data and user journey on its digital assets. Using this platform, Intel Ignite will further build and grow its community of startups, founders and mentors, and scale their events around the world, in its startup cohort locations of Israel, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe, as well as during global technology conferences.

For this new platform, Tweed’s embedded wallets and payment technology is used to tokenize each ticket as a unique non-fungible token that is certified on the blockchain. The platform is built exclusively on the Solana network, taking advantage of Solana’s reliability, scalability, and efficiency.
