More Information

 

CV VC looks forward to welcoming you since this event is part of the CV VC Friends & Family Day.

 

The financial markets are volatile and, despite recent short-term recovery, investors continue to face uncertain times in the medium-term, also in macro-economic and geopolitical terms. Venture capital and technology investments are also not unaffected and have lost some ground in this context. Volatility will continue to be a major issue in the future.

However, the great potential of blockchain technology and crypto assets remains undisputed among experts, and not only in the areas of finance and trade. Blockchain technology is seen by renowned investors as a "catalyst technology", i.e. a technology that will positively influence many other megatrends, such as Machine Learning, AI, Industry 4.0, Personalised Health, etc., as a so-called "technology enabler".

The event will feature a panel of experts from startups and VC investors on the topic, as well as some use cases of startups leveraging blockchain technology, both in Europe and Africa.
