Pitango First announced on Tuesday the launch of its Venture Lab called ‘First Labs’, aiming to build bridges between Web 2.0 and Web 3.0. Pitango plans for First Labs to serve as a hub for knowledge sharing, creating projects, and gaining exposure to the hottest trends and latest news of the industry. Its community will play a pivotal role in advancing the developments of ideas and concepts around the projects using a DAO, the first one in Israel to be founded by a traditional VC.

Powered by an evolving spectrum of funding mechanisms, the First-DAO combines traditional venture capital with a spirit of community through open governance. The DAO will be led by Aviv Barzilay of Pitango First, and the DAO Council which will include: Tomer Wiess, Amit Peled, Oren De-lange, Elad Mor and Itai Elizur.
