BitCoin Gold has announced that it is to be an official sponsor of the CaseIT Competition for this year. The 2018 edition is to take place at the Beedie School of Business in Vancouver between February 11th and 16th.

CaseIT has decided to celebrate its 15th anniversary by providing a platform for teams from across the world to compete, analyse and discuss innovations with an industry crowd. There will be six days of competition, asking teams to demonstrate knowledge, skills and flexibility across a number of rounds. Every year CaseIT brings together teams of top business students and professionals from the industry.

16 Universities from 9 countries will be present. One change this year is where BTG enters the fold. For the first time in its 15 years, the CaseIT competition will include two members of the Bitcoin Gold team as part of the judging and mentoring panel. BTG is hoping to utilise the experience of its own team to help the CaseIT participants to improve their own understanding of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, and how they can have a positive impact on modern business and industry.

With digital currency and blockchain, hope for a more secure and flexible future is possible, and Bitcoin Gold hopes that by sponsoring the CaseIT competition for 2018, they can have a say in shaping the thoughts of the next generation of students.
