Why Switzerland is a great place to be a fintech startup:
Switzerland is a great place for several reasons. Authorities have understood the importance of blockchain companies and are trying to regulate them in a intelligent way, by consulting with them what solutions are relevant. Swiss democratic/ political model is a blockchain before it in a way. Decentralised, democratic where every voice counts and where the level of meritocracy is really effective. People earn what they contribute. Finally Switzerland has since a long time ago this mantra of liberal stance on commercial exchanges with no tax zones, like bilateral treaties with the EU. All these elements are in a way the essence of blockchain and of SwissBorg, therefore Switzerland is a real great place to be in for a fintech startup.
