A new blockchain-based city innovation is currently being planned by the municipal government of Moscow. This new platform will be used as an IT innovation cluster for the city and the goal will be to enable the participants to find potential business partners, as well to learn more about many topics, such as crypto equipment and products.
Moscow’s Head of the Department of Business and Innovation, Alexey Fursin, has affirmed that the people who join the platform will be even able to get financial support from the municipal government in some cases.
According to him, this new platform will be based on iMoscow, which is a navigation hub that was created by the municipal administration and it is state-supported. At the moment, iMoscow is also on the last stages of its development, so it is certain that this new IT innovation cluster will be one of the first big implementations that will put it to test.
