Other highlights of the event include a competition between different tech startups for pitch battle, to win the award for Best Startup and an additional surprise from event organizers. Some of the prominent startups to attend the event include Voltex, Mycro, CogniPet, and of course, Windmine.
Crypto Valley and its Significance
Currently, Zug has been heralded as the fastest-growing community for tech startups in Europe. Compared to other cities, Zug’s Crypto Valley comes out on top when it comes to comparisons of an annual number of attendees at blockchain-related meet up events.
Initially, Zug was home to industries and agriculture but in recent years, the city developed a reputation as a hotspot for pharmaceutical corporations. The reason for the city’s attraction is more than its scenic view. It’s actually the favorable corporate tax rate. Corporations are charged only a rate of 14 percent in this region. This policy makes Zug a business-friendly city that promotes innovative growth.
Crypto Valley hosts many events to welcome crypto enthusiast, experts, and even people who have close to no clue what blockchain is all about. Crypto Valley has goals for sustainability and has also put a code of conduct in place for its members.
This calls for new startups to follow a certain code when going through the ICO period. Some of the easy rules of this code are that startups should keep communities and investors thoroughly informed of what progress they’re achieving and if there are any risks associated with their platform.
Considering how other nations are still fussing over crypto security instead of leading actionable change, it’s refreshing to see the Crypto Valley Association taking action and addressing the problem.
