YZi Labs (Prev. Binance Labs)

YZi Labs, formerly Binance Labs, is a high-conviction venture and incubation firm investing across Web3, AI, and biotech. Backed by the family office of Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao, YZi Labs backs projects with strong fundamentals and the potential to create long-term, transformational impact. The firm targets ventures that sit at the intersection of emerging technologies, focusing on sectors poised to redefine digital infrastructure, intelligence, and health.

Led by Ella Zhang, YZi Labs offers more than capital. Its chain-agnostic Incubation Program delivers hands-on mentorship, go-to-market strategy, and seed funding to early-stage founders through a 12-week immersive residency. YZi Labs maintains a rigorous selection process and partners with only the most visionary and execution-focused teams.

With a mission to catalyze innovation across markets, YZi Labs combines the agility of a founder-led structure with the resources of a global ecosystem. Its rebranding in 2025 marks a shift toward greater independence and broader focus—while staying deeply committed to advancing the future of Web3 and frontier tech.
