Swisstech , an initiative to disseminate Swiss innovation supported by Swissnex and other institutions in the Swiss innovation ecosystem, will be present at Web Summit Rio , which takes place between April 27th and 30th. With its own booth ( number E423 in pavilion 4 swisstech will present various solutions developed by Swiss startups . Among the cutting-edge technologies, a highlight is the software , represented by Veezoo , created by two Brazilians, which offers a platform for applying Artificial Intelligence to business data analysis, and Nym Technologies , a developer of technologies focused on digital security and privacy based on blockchain.
Switzerland leads the ranking of the most innovative countries in the world, having been crowned champion for the 14th consecutive time in 2024, according to the Global Innovation Index developed by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Swissnex in Brazil strengthens bilateral exchanges, connecting entrepreneurs from both countries, fostering new partnerships, and assisting in the entry of products and solutions into the Brazilian market.
One of the case studies that will be presented at Web Summit Rio is that of Veezoo, which developed a business intelligence platform based on generative artificial intelligence. The solution allows users without technical knowledge to analyze corporate data quickly and intuitively through a conversational interface. The solution utilizes the client company's internal databases, without the data leaving its servers. The company holds SOC 2 Type I security certification and is finalizing SOC 2 Type II certification, both globally recognized as a standard of excellence in data security and privacy.
Founded by two Brazilian brothers and a Swiss co-founder, Veezoo has thousands of active users and operates in countries such as Switzerland, Germany, the USA, Brazil, and India. In Brazil, Veezoo has ongoing business deals with Bayer, Caixa Consórcios, Santa Lolla, and Algar Telecom. The company demonstrates great interest in the Brazilian market due to the high demand for intuitive data analytics solutions. For Marcos Monteiro, CEO and co-founder of Veezoo, the idea is to democratize access to corporate data, enabling valuable insights that do not depend on high technical qualifications.
Our mission is to facilitate the analysis of large volumes of internal data with a user-friendly interface; the name Veezoo comes from this, presenting information in a more visual way. Brazil has great market potential and growing demand for business intelligence solutions, making it a strategic focus for us, in addition to the pleasure of bringing our innovation to our country.
NYM Technologies is a startup focused on digital security and privacy. The company has built a solution based on the Cosmos blockchain, with a focus on privacy. The solution has three components: NYM Mixnet, a network that anonymizes users' online activities by routing data packets through a series of mixnodes; NYM Token, a utility token for the network used to decentralize the mixnet by rewarding nodes for network usage; and NYM Credentials, which allow users to partially or fully reveal their data as needed for authentication in applications. The main product, NYM VPN, was launched in May 2025 and already has over a thousand clients in just a few weeks since its debut. Currently, there are more than 500 operating nodes on the network.
Nym VPN is fundamentally different from most VPNs on the market because it can provide genuine anonymity for users. While most VPNs are centralized and vulnerable to network surveillance and data leaks, this one is built on a decentralized, zero-knowledge network operated by independent nodes. Nym has no control over the servers, which are globally distributed and managed by a global community of privacy-focused activists. For Daniel Vazquez, NYM's LATAM growth director, in an increasingly connected world, data privacy is paramount:
Our technology offers a layer of anonymity for online activities, protecting users from surveillance and ensuring greater security in their digital interactions. We see Brazil as an important market for the dissemination of solutions focused on online privacy.
Swisstech's participation in Web Summit Rio 2025, through Swissnex, aims not only to showcase the excellence of Swiss technology, but also to strengthen collaboration with Brazil in the search for solutions for a more innovative and collaborative future. In addition to Veezoo and NYM, Swissnex is also presenting Treeles, Kido Dynamics, Assaia, Herby, RTDT, Solar TRITEC, and BEEKEE.
