Greetings from the ICON Team

Tokyo, May 8, 2018 — ICON announced a strategic partnership with Japan’s first crypto fund, B Cryptos (representative Hiroyuki Motoyoshi) to revitalize the blockchain ecosystem in Japan and abroad.

B Cryptos is Japan’s first crypto fund supported by one of Japan’s top venture capital funds, B Dash Ventures(representative Hiroyuki Watanabe), and also by Japan’s leading cryptocurrency exchange QUOINE, which will invest in various ICOs and cryptocurrencies.

Following the strategic partnership last month with Deblock (Co-CEO Jun Hong and Hyun-suk Oh), ICON’s strategic partnership with B Cryptos is to further expand our support for blockchain projects and to build a worldwide hyperconnected blockchain ecosystem.

ICON and B Cryptos will co-host hackathons, demo days, and conferences, as well as operate incubation programs to support blockchain projects.

JH Kim, council member of ICON, will become a member of the Crypto Fund Investment Committee. Also, Hiroyuki Watanabe, CEO of B Dash Ventures, will become an advisor for ICON. ICON is also considering making investments in B Crypto’s Fund as a limited partner.
