Ticino Blockchain Technologies Association


Overview

The association acts as an aggregator of all new and existing initiatives within a unique innovation cluster based in Ticino / Switzerland, fostering the advancement of economic progress: more competitive products for companies, more prosperous careers for individuals and growth of swiss education system.
The association promotes and facilitates innovation and research, merging publicand private sectors, with the aim of promoting awareness and development of all technologies related to blockchain and decentralized applications (DLT).
The Ticino Blockchain Technologies Association is member of the Ticino Chamber of Commerce and Industry located in the city of Lugano, Switzerland.
The blockchain ecosystem links two main drivers of innovation: universities and research centers on the one hand, and private companies, which transform scientific knowledge into economic wealth, on the other. What will take place in Ticino is therefore a complex process of economic enhancement of education and scientific and technological research, which flows from universities and Research Institutes, which is then distributed (employees and research results) over the territory, while offering enterprises the ability to capitalize on the results of the research by showcasing and deploying marketable products.

Focus 1

A concentration of heterogeneous entities: universities, students, research centers, enterprises, public and private investment funds



Focus 2

Partners regardless of their nature, are united by the "sacred fire of innovation", and are engaged, with different roles, in producing economic value starting from scientific and technological research

Focus 3

Partners, while operating in the same economic arena and often in competition with one another, demonstrate high degrees of cooperation

La Ticino Blockchain Technologies Association saluta con piacere la nascita di #3Achain, la blockchain della città Lugano alla quale la Ticino Blockchain Technologies Association contribuisce assieme alle università locali University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland e USI Università della Svizzera italiana, le diverse aziende del settore e importanti istituzioni luganesi e ticinesi. Questa importante iniziativa nata all'interno di Lugano Living Lab vuole diventare la base per collaborare, facilitare la sperimentazione e portare sul mercato progetti e innovazione. Un iniziativa unica a livello svizzero che pone il Ticino e sopratutto Lugano all'avanguardia nel mondo della #blockchain, settore economico e tecnologico in forte crescita dal potenziale enorme e sul quale è importante investire.
