Talent Protocol is a web3 talent-tech platform founded in May 2021 in Lisbon that enables individuals to launch 'Talent Tokens'—tokenized stakes in a person's career that pay dividends to both talent and early supporters. Users can buy tokens within minutes using crypto or a credit card to back up-and-coming leaders and access exclusive perks and weekly rewards. The platform launched its beta and issued 50+ Talent Tokens in the first month while distributing invites to a waitlist of more than 5,000 users. Example tokenized profiles include a political hopeful and a climate activist, illustrating the platform's broad creator types. The startup emphasizes blockchain-recorded bonds to align financial, social, and emotional incentives between talent and supporters. With €1.5M in new funding, the company plans to grow its team by hiring developers and a designer to build a more inclusive and seamless user experience.
