In CV Labs we combine blockchain startup incubation, coworking, a variety of events, and advisory activities to create a unique global blockchain ecosystem. CV Labs is the ecosystem business of CV VC.
For CV VC’s incubation investments, CV Labs run our own 12-week incubation program specifically tailored to blockchain startups. With access to the foremost thinkers in the sector, technologists, the wealthy, and a supportive infrastructure of service providers, startups leave the program ready to take on the world.
The CV Labs Coworking Space accommodates more than 130 of the leading blockchain projects in the industry. To meet your requirements, we are able to provide desk space, meeting rooms, whole office suites, or even your company’s very own headquarters here in Zug, also known as Crypto Valley.
CV Labs Locations
CV Labs is currently present in Zug inSwitzerland and in Vaduz in Liechtenstein.
Not only is Zug, Switzerland, the epicenter of blockchain innovation, it is also the birthplace of CV Labs.
We grew up on blockchain technology, just like our first-class network of investors, technologists, and entrepreneurs.
That is why we ask startups inducted into the 12-week CV Labs Incubator to make the move and join us where it all began. It is more than a community. It is a culture. From an excellent coworking space to industry-leading events and world-class lecture series, we have everything a passionate blockchain startup needs to succeed.
In October 2019, the CV Labs Coworking network announced the addition of our second location in Vaduz, Liechtenstein.
Like Zug, teams from all over the world are offered first-in-class office space to brainstorm, collaborate, and interact with CV Lab’s thriving network of blockchain enthusiasts.
Projects established in Vaduz are also welcome to use our Zug location.

CV VC
In 1989, the World Wide Web was invented in Geneva. However, there is currently no Swiss-based Internet company on a similar global scale. 30 years later, Switzerland is again at the core of technology with the potential to boost growth over the decades: blockchain.
CV VC (Crypto Valley Venture Capital) is an investment company that invests in young companies (start-ups). CV VC differs from other investors in two ways: firstly, the company operates an additional operational business, i.e. its own ecosystem of co-working spaces, consulting, and events, which is run under the CV Labs brand. On the other hand, CV VC invests exclusively in companies that develop products and services based on blockchain technology.
CV VC is an early-stage venture capital investor with a focus on startups that build on blockchain technology. In addition to the venture capital investments, we operate an ecosystem business under the CV Labs brand, consisting of workspaces, advisory, and events.
