CoinAgenda Caribbean – San Juan, Puerto Rico

Since 2014, CoinAgenda has hosted events in Europe, Asia, Las Vegas, and is excited for its fourth annual return to Puerto Rico following event partner Puerto Rico Investors Conference (PRICON).

For 2020, CoinAgenda will host a cocktail party on Wednesday (February 26) in Old San Juan. Full access CoinAgenda conference attendees are invited.

On Thursday (February 27), CoinAgenda Caribbean will discuss legal, regulatory and jurisdictional issues involved with starting and investing in blockchain companies, and discuss institutional investors with a special focus on the Caribbean. In between the day’s content and in partnership with BitAngels, up to 20 companies (a mix of angel and VC investments as well as tokens trading on exchanges) will pitch in a Demo Day environment, then the day will conclude with a cocktail party at an exclusive rooftop venue.

There is no cost to apply to pitch and if selected, the company will receive one complimentary pass to the day sessions on Thursday (excluding the closing party). Full CoinAgenda passes are available to selected companies at a discounted rate to attend Wednesday and Thursday sessions and parties.
