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.
