TORONTO, CANADA, SEPTEMBER 14 2023 — SettleMint, the Blockchain Transformation Company, today announced its exclusive €50,000 Proof-of-Value contest for attendees of Sibos 2023, the premier financial services event organized by Swift.

This exclusive Proof-of-Value contest is just one of the ways SettleMint is ‘bringing Blockchain Transformation to Sibos’, with other initiatives including talks and workshops that are specifically designed to help banks and financial institutions accelerate value creation with blockchain. 

There will be $3.1 trillion of new business value created by blockchain by 2030, yet 85% of blockchain projects get stuck and fail to cross the blockchain complexity chasm. Blockchain Transformation in banking and finance will only occur if organizations can move their use cases, Proof-of-Concepts or Minimum-Viable-Products into full production, which is exactly what this contest is designed to help them do,” said Matthew Van Niekerk, Co-founder & CEO at SettleMint.

The exclusive contest gives attendees the chance to put their organization forward for full access to SettleMint's Blockchain Transformation Platform, along with Value Discovery sessions for business and IT teams, and €50,000 in SettleMint platform credits*. SettleMint will also provide comprehensive assistance with setup and be ready to support end-to-end migration from the winning organization’s existing blockchain solution.

The contest officially kicks off on Monday, September 18th, which is the opening day of Sibos 2023. To enter the contest, attendees should visit SettleMint's booth at Sibos (DISM 21) or attend the talks and workshops covering Blockchain Transformation for banks and financial institutions that SettleMint has scheduled throughout the event.

Applications will be accepted until Friday, September 29th (23:59 CET), with the highly anticipated winner announced on October 6th. For more information about the contest, as well as terms and conditions, click here or visit https://content.settlemint.com/50k-sibos-competition
