"The Dojo experience, I cannot rave enough about the Dojo experience. The value that I think the Dojo gave this start-up is insane!"
Sefi Carmel
Sefi CarmelCEO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"Best value, best people. I felt like I went back to school. I've learned so much from financial modelling to just learning how to talk to people in suits. It's been brilliant, it's been absolutely amazing."
Joe Beedle
Joe BeedleCEO of Kulcho, Cohort Two
"I'm so grateful that they've helped us all this way, and will continue to support us as we grow our business. They gave us real world advice on how to make our business appealing and understandable, to not only investors but our customers. They honed our solution. They made us go after our customers and create real use cases to appeal to investors and they made us market ready."
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"Definitely. I don't know another accelerator program where you actually get developers and UX designers on-hand. For me, having wireframes that I could actually show potential investors or clients made such a massive difference. So definitely I would recommend it."
Hannah Nicholson
Hannah NicholsonCEO of MoveGenius, Cohort Two
"I would definitely recommend the Dojo incubator programme to other founders. Not only do they provide £10,000 in cash, they also provide incredible day-to-day, really insightful knowledge and experience and tips to every single founder on the course, and it's just been a fantastic experience."
Isaac Short
Isaac ShortCOO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"I'd recommend the incubator programme for anybody that wants to build a successful tech business and wants to scale it, and especially wants to grow as a founder. This is the place to be."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"100%! If you want a value for money and time accelerator, this is it! The staff are lovely, the cohort's been lovely, and you're going to be engaging with the space that's going to completely change the tech, media, you name it, whatever, landscape. So yeah, get onboard!"
Joe Beedle
Joe BeedleCEO of Kulcho, Cohort Two
"12 weeks ago, SphereTrax was an idea on a PDF, a good idea, but an idea, a back burner idea of one day I'm going to do this. Whereas now we formed a limited company, we are SEIS assured, we have an MVP, a working MVP, we have a working website, we have contacts with investors and warm talks with a VC. It would not have happened without the Dojo."
Sefi Carmel
Sefi CarmelCEO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"The Dojo experience has been one of the most involved learning experiences I've ever had in my life, from finances, to marketing, to development, every step of the way to building a product in 2022, you get from the Dojo, incredible."
Isaac Short
Isaac ShortCOO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"I think the dojo has been amazing, I'm very sad that it's over. We've had incredible developers, UX designers, who have brought our products to real life. It's been amazing."
Hannah Nicholson
Hannah NicholsonCEO of MoveGenius, Cohort Two
"I wouldn't be able to be where I am today without the Dojo. We might have been able to accomplish the things we have, but over a much longer period of time. This place has supercharged our growth so that after 12 weeks we're in a position we never thought we'd be in."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"I highly recommend the Dojo to other founders. They're an amazing team, more like a family of successful, down-to-earth, approachable people who will help you grow your business and you to become a success."
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"It was an incredible journey, it is a very intense programme, but you get a lot of stuff done. These 12 weeks I've got more things done than probably the last year."
Ole Andre Knutli
Ole Andre KnutliCEO of CoinSurvey, Cohort Two
"My message to Dojo would be make sure you deliver the exact same programme to the next group of founders, keep that momentum going, keep that energy level as high as it was for us because it has been incredible every step of the way."
Isaac Short
Isaac ShortCOO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"I wouldn't be where I am today without Dojo. I've just started the business but what I've learned here is what I havn’t learned in 2 years at university."
Mario Alla
Mario AllaCEO of Konecto, Cohort Two
"The Dojo far exceeded my expectations. I wasn't sure what I would be getting here as we're the second cohort ever., but every interaction has been phenomenal and productive and conducive to us running successful business."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"They know their stuff, they connected us with investors, solid business acumen, and knowledge of the blockchain, but also the surrounding business environment."
Sefi Carmel
Sefi CarmelCEO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"The vibe of the Dojo is fun, but professional. It's about getting stuff done, but not taking yourself too seriously, but taking what you do seriously."
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"They've done a phenomenal job of pushing us out of our comfort zones and make us more mature founders."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"Even if you want to try and build a company yourself., there's so many things you haven't thought about. I have even started a company before and still when I got here there were so many new things that I didn't know and which the Dojo like blew my mind on."
Ole Andre Knutli
Ole Andre KnutliCEO of CoinSurvey, Cohort Two
"I would highly recommend the dojo to other founders. Anybody that wants to run a successful tech business, whether it's in blockchain or otherwise, you can come here, learn how to be a tech founder, adapt to new technology in blockchain, and strengthen your product offering. I would highly recommend, ten out of ten."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"Thank you so much Dojo, you're an incredible asset to our start-up journey!"
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"I would absolutely recommend the Dojo to other founders."
Ørjan Knutli
Ørjan KnutliCOO of CoinSurvey, Cohort Two
"The 12-week incubator has been phenomenal. Every week I learn something new and gotten closer with 9 companies that I call lifelong friends now."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"Yes, I would recommend the Dojo to other founders. Last week I was pitching an event and there were six or seven teams there, and three of those were from the Dojo and of those seven teams, the best three were all Dojo teams. You can just see the difference in quality of pitching, in the completeness of the business idea."
Isaac Short
Isaac ShortCOO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"I have never met any other employees that are as motivated and in to what they do as the Dojo team."
Mario Alla
Mario AllaCEO of Konecto, Cohort Two
"Jay and James gave us real world practical advice. They've built companies, they've exited companies, they know what they're talking about. And they made us appealing to investors and to the larger ecosystem."
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"Wow! Make sure you've got 12 weeks off, make sure you don't have any other commitments. 100%. I don't think there's any other incubator programme that puts you through finding the right stakeholders, the marketing, the public speaking."
Dunja Rombouts
Dunja RomboutsCEO of PICKLE, Cohort Two
"With a tear in my eye, I have to say it is one of the best things I've ever done. I'm a solo founder, so everything from walking in the front door on the first day to what we have tonight, has been genuinely breath taking."
Mark Jennings
Mark JenningsCEO of Frenzi, Cohort Two
"The Dojo experience has been phenomenal. The support we got from the team, the other founders. One of the most exciting parts about all this is just being in a room full of high level achievers that are ambitious, and that drive that they bring every day pushes me forward to build a company that I want to scale globally."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"To be or not to be. This start-up would not be. Not that it wouldn't be where it is, it just wouldn't be without the Dojo. It's the critical mass of support that we got at the Dojo is just the difference between this happening and not happening."
Sefi Carmel
Sefi CarmelCEO of SphereTrax, Cohort Two
"I would highly recommend the dojo to founders in technology who have an interest in blockchain or Web3. It's a wonderful resource and incredible team and it'll just increase your chances of success."
Sashen Naicker
Sashen NaickerCEO of Mintelium, Cohort Two
"I looked at a number of other incubators, I also looked at accelerator programs, Y Combinator, Techstars, all those, and you know obviously they offer different things, but the experience we got at the Dojo, I think sets them apart and puts them right there at the top with all those world class organisations."
Timur Malik
Timur MalikCEO of Combat IQ, Cohort Two
"The incubator's helped with everything from the product market fit, competitor analysis, getting investors interested, development so far, we've had an MVP built for us. Every single point of the business has been helped in some way by the Dojo."

“I absolutely loved the 12-week program, I thought that the structure of it was amazing. It really showed us how to get a business from a concept, to looking at the problem, talking to the customers, to being able to package it to then sell it to investors and I wouldn't have been able to do it without the support of the staff and the other people in the Dojo. It was an outstanding experience I wish I could do it all again.”
Sam Gibbon
Sam GibbonCEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
“To say that we could have done the above without the support, expertise, guidance, advice and mentoring of the Satoshi Block Dojo would not only be incredibly unlikely but also would have meant we would have missed out what we believe to be the business opportunity we wish we had years ago!”
Charles Symons
Charles SymonsCEO - Buzzmint (Cohort One)
“The most useful sessions were all about investment. I didn't really know how an investment would work within a structured company and how it would look after.“
Sam Gibbon
Sam GibbonCEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
“As seasoned business owners when we initially attended the Block Dojo launch event, we asked ourselves what the program could provide us with that we didn't already know - but after 12 weeks of support we found out the answer to that question was not so much 'rather a lot actually' but more a case of we could not have shaped and advanced our start-up at anywhere near the pace that we did without the Dojo's support and guidance.”
Charles Symons
Charles SymonsCEO - Buzzmint (Cohort One)
“The Dojo has helped us tremendously, obviously they've opened up that big network of investors and found many more to come along to the pitch day events and Investor Lunches. We wouldn't have been able to do it without. It’s hard to get into the room, you might have the best idea in the world but unless you're meeting the right people it's not gonna go anywhere so it was invaluable.”
Sam Gibbon
Sam Gibbon CEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
“Putting to one side the superb practical help that took away all the hassle of starting a business, the excellent guidance from those who have 'been there and done it' and the invaluable mental support all new business owners need, we were also given access to a large number of business mentors - we cannot stress enough how totally invaluable this aspect of the Dojo was to our business.”
Charles Symons
Charles SymonsCEO - Buzzmint (Cohort One)
“Our journey in terms of us as Founders, we've progressed massively in 12 weeks, we're probably completely different people to when we came in and much better off for it.”
Sam Gibbon
Sam GibbonCEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
“Not only have we made excellent business connections, but we have most certainly gained some new friends who we talk to and receive counsel from on a daily basis.”
Charles Symons
Charles SymonsCEO - Buzzmint (Cohort One)
“100%, if you've got a start-up or you you've got an idea and you want to create something and utilise blockchain you should definitely get in touch with the Block Dojo. We wouldn't be anywhere near where we are today without them and it's changed my life for the better.”
Sam Gibbon
Sam GibbonCEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
“All in all, if you have a germ of a great idea that can utilise the enormous power of blockchain, but need guidance, help, advice, business expertise, funding and true friendship along your journey then I cannot recommend Satoshi Block Dojo enough - they have been truly superb and after many years working in business and running businesses my only regret is that they weren't there for us years ago.”
Charles Symons
Charles SymonsCEO - Buzzmint (Cohort One)
“The Craig Massey experience, it's eye-opening. Craig Massey doesn't mess around, he's very direct but he lights to fire up under you as well. You can tell why he's successful, because he the man is just go-go-go and I’ve learned so much from him. I’m really glad that I met him, and had the experience to work alongside him, even if it was just for 12 weeks.”
Sam Gibbon
Sam GibbonCEO - Sesire (Cohort One)
