Network Partners

A W3 Network Partner is a leading infrastructure or service provider whose technology is integrated into W3.io’s modular ecosystem as a reusable ingredient. These partners enable verifiable workflows—called recipes—that address complex, cross-chain, enterprise-grade challenges such as identity verification, compliance, data storage, asset interoperability, AI compute, and more.

Why Become a W3 Network Partner

Joining the W3 Network offers clear and compelling benefits to infrastructure providers across the decentralized ecosystem. W3 expands your Total Addressable Market (TAM) and opens new customer acquisition channels that aren’t possible through isolated, direct-to-market efforts.

Core Value Proposition

Network Partners gain the ability to interoperate with other decentralized services, increasing composability and enabling bundled solutions that deliver more value to end users.

Many core services in Web3—like decentralized AI agents, GPU compute, and ZK-based validators for AI—are not currently interoperable. W3 makes this integration possible. When these resources can be composed together, every player in the stack benefits.

Economic Incentives for Network Partners

  • No Channel Fees for Decentralized Compute Providers

    • Compute providers earn the same margins through W3 as they would selling directly.

    • We eliminate disincentives and make protocol-based delivery economically neutral (or better).

  • Access to Bundled Service Opportunities

    • W3 enables partners to sell integrated packages of services.

    • Web3-native companies currently spend $500M–$1B annually on centralized IT services—W3 unlocks this spend for decentralized alternatives.

    • Bundling expands the TAM for each partner. For example: A data protocol can now bundle with compute, storage, or compliance services.

    • Edge and base compute can combine to serve broader enterprise needs.

  • W3 Grows the Market with Strategic Support

    • Treasury Subsidies: W3 will use its treasury to subsidize usage of decentralized compute services.

    • Segment Advocacy: We actively promote the benefits of decentralized infrastructure across the broader IT and enterprise landscape.

    • Ecosystem Activation: W3 demonstrates the real-world viability of decentralized stacks by building and showcasing production-grade applications.

W3 doesn’t just connect services—we connect opportunity.
