SEBA Bank supports Blockchain Nation Switzerland
SEBA Bank, a FINMA licenced Swiss Bank providing a seamless, secure, and easy-to-use bridge between digital and traditional assets, is proud to announce its partnership with the NTN Innovation Booster – Blockchain Nation Switzerland. The multi-year funding instrument is led by the Swiss Blockchain Federation and combines relevant actors from the industry and academia to promote a new generation of blockchain entrepreneurship. It is one of twelve different NTN Innovation Boosters 2021-2024, which are thematic networks initiated by the Swiss Innovation Agency, Innosuisse.
As a partner, SEBA Bank will play an active role in the implementation of this program. This year, the involvement occurs across two different formats, an ideation phase and a blockchain hackathon. The goal of the project is to generate novel and disruptive ideas across four different stages. After an initial ideation phase, ideas will be further developed in a hackathon, a corporate acceleration phase, and finally as part of a full-fledged incubation program. The target audience of potential participants includes students, startups, developers, and other interested individuals.
Guido Buehler, CEO of SEBA Bank summarized the partnership as follows:
“We are delighted to enter this strategic alliance with the NTN Innovation Booster – Blockchain Nation Switzerland. Together with our new partners, we actively support the blockchain ecosystem in Switzerland and contribute to progress and innovation within our industry. In doing so, we reaffirm our commitment to Switzerland as a business location by both directly and indirectly generating new jobs and talents. Watch this space for more exciting news in the coming months.”
