08/12/2019

The Swiss start-up CogniPet™ has been accepted for state funding by Innosuisse and Venturelab for its blockchain and AI-based pet platform. Thus CogniPet™ will receive advisory support in the field of Initial Coaching and Business Growth.

CogniPet™, which was recently specified by the renowned tech magazine Cointelegraph under ‘10 Blockchain Ideas That Are Out OF This World, or May Change It‘, has also found honourable acknowledgement in its homeland. Acceptance by Innosuisse and Venturelab is almost considered a knighthood in the Swiss startup scene. “That’s a fantastic door opener; after all, we’re being recognized by a country that ranks first in the Global Innovation Index 2019,” says Vincenzo Vento, CEO of CogniPet™. In addition to coaching and workshops, CogniPet™ can also benefit from subsidies for international appearances, such as a presence in the Swiss Pavilion at CES in Las Vegas.
