CoinAgenda Caribbean also includes a startup competition “highlighting top entrepreneurs developing real-world use cases for blockchain technology,” a release explained, adding that “Founders interested in pitching their projects (including security token offerings) are invited to apply here.”

The contest is judged by “prominent token investors, and winners will be awarded a complimentary exhibit at a future CoinAgenda event as well as tickets to partner conferences.
