Canton Bern joins the Swiss Blockchain Federation<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Canton Bern, a growing hub of the Swiss blockchain industry with strong roots in consulting and education, has become a member of the Swiss Blockchain Federation (SBF) this year. Together, we aim to further strengthen Switzerland\u2019s position as a globally leading blockchain location.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Bern, 8 December 2025<\/strong> \u2013 Today, Canton Bern ranks among the ten most active blockchain regions in Switzerland. According to the latest CV VC Crypto Valley Company & Industry Report, 41 blockchain companies are active in Bern; the region\u2019s profile is particularly strong in Consulting & Advisory as well as Community & Education. This makes Bern a substantial contributor to the diversity of the ecosystem and complements the industrial and financial focus of other cantons.<\/p>\n

Bern\u2019s strength in consulting and educational initiatives is reflected in the active transfer of knowledge between universities, business, and public administration. In addition to private-sector players, educational institutions such as the University of Bern regularly engage in blockchain research, continuing education programmes, and knowledge transfer.<\/p>\n

Shaping tax frameworks<\/strong><\/p>\n

The initiative for Bern\u2019s membership came from the cantonal tax administration. Its specialists are already active in SBF\u2019s Tax Working Group, where they exchange views on cryptocurrencies with other experts. Beyond professional exchange, Canton Bern values access to current developments and the opportunity to actively help shape tax frameworks in the blockchain and crypto space.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are delighted that Bern is committed to further strengthening Switzerland as a blockchain hub and is now a member of the Swiss Blockchain Federation. This sends a clear signal about the attractiveness of our country. As Switzerland\u2019s political centre, Bern is an important hub for the industry and makes a significant contribution to positioning Switzerland as a leading blockchain hub,\u201d said Heinz T\u00e4nnler, President of the Swiss Blockchain Federation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4390,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en-2"],"yoast_head":"\nCanton Bern joins the Swiss Blockchain Federation - Swiss Blockchain Federation<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Der Kanton Bern, ein wachsender Standort der Schweizer Blockchain-Industrie mit starker Verankerung in Beratung und Bildung, ist seit diesem Jahr Mitglied der Swiss Blockchain Federation.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/blockchainfederation.ch\/en\/kanton-bern\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Kanton Bern tritt der Swiss Blockchain Federation bei\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Der Kanton Bern, ein wachsender Standort der Schweizer Blockchain-Industrie mit starker Verankerung in Beratung und Bildung, ist seit diesem Jahr Mitglied der Swiss Blockchain Federation (SBF).
