Intiva Health Takes the #Sandcastle18 Startups Challenge Grand Prize During the World Tokenomic Forum Annual Summit in Grand Cayman
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- World Tokenomic Forum held its inaugural Annual Summit of members last week in Grand Cayman and hosted 16 highly vetted early stage companies in its Sandcastle Startups Challenge competition on day one. Over a five hour span, the teams competed in high-velocity pitch challenges, side by side on stage, bracket-style, in front of four judges and the membership body of World Tokenomic Forum. In the final matchup Swytch.io and Intiva Health went head to head in an improv pitch battle featuring 30 second and 15 second bursts, and when all the votes were counted Intiva Health took the Grand Prize.
"Back in January the search for the best of the best began for the inaugural Sandcastle Startups Challenge Sweet 16. 137 challengers entered from over 17 countries, and the 16 finalists from a myriad of industry segments proved one thing through their efforts on stage this week to all in attendance. If you were wondering with blockchain technology 'If there is a there, there' the question is a resounding Yes!" said Chris J Snook, Chairman of World Tokenomic Forum.
The companies competing in the finals included:
Clear Foundation, Shoppers.shop, Vertalo, BCT.io, True Reply, Intiva Health, Datum, Centareum, HyperFIELD Technologies, Vinchain.io, Databroker DAO, Fan Token, Swytch.io, Mobile Bridge Momentum, rLoop, and Cryptyk.
"Sandcastle was intense, with stiff competition! I was humbled and honored to be a part of a group of such impactful projects and leaders. The win was sweet validation to all the hard work my team has put in," said John Hartigan of Intiva Health.
Alternate companies not making the final cut, but deserving honorable mentions included Emanate, Celsius, Hatch, TokenAI, Rev SEZC, and Science Root.
The hunt for the next group has already begun and interested early stage companies can opt-in at www.sandcastlechallenge.com for alerts on how to enter for 2019.
