A swisstech, Switzerland's innovation dissemination initiative supported by Swissnex and other institutions of the innovation ecosystem of Switzerland, will be present in the Rio Web Summit, which takes place between April 27 and 30. With its own booth (no E423 of pavilion 4), swisstech will present several solutions developed by swiss startups. Among the cutting-edge technologies, a highlight for the sector of software, represented by Veezoo, created by two Brazilians, which offers an application platform of Artificial Intelligence in business data analysis, and the Nym Technologies, developer of blockchain-based digital security and privacy technologies.
Switzerland leads the ranking of countries that innovate the most in the world, having been 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, to connect entrepreneurs from both countries, foster new partnerships and help the entry of products and solutions in the Brazilian market.
One of the cases that will be presented at Web Summit Rio is the Veezoo, uh that developed a business intelligence platform (business intelligence) 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 uses the internal databases of the client company, without the data leaving its servers. The company has the SOC 2 Type I security certification and is finalizing the SOC 2 Type II certification, both recognized globally 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, USA, Brazil and India. In Brazil, Veezoo has ongoing business with Bayer, Caixa Consortios, Santa Lolla and Algar Telecom. The company shows great interest in the Brazilian market due to the high demand for intuitive data analysis solutions.For Marcos Monteiro, CEO and co-founder of Veezoo the idea is to democratize access to corporate data, allowing valuable insights that do not depend on high technical qualification.
''Our mission is to facilitate the analysis of large volumes of internal data with a user-friendly interface, the name Veezoo comes from there, to present information in a more visual way. Brazil, has a great market potential and growing demand for business intelligence solutions, is a strategic focus for us, in addition to the pleasure of bringing our innovation to our country.
Already a NYM Technologies it 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, routing data packets through a series of mixnodes; NYM Token, a utility token of the network that is used to make the decentralized mixnet rewarding nodes for network use; and NYM Credentials, which allow users to partially or fully reveal data as per the authentication required in applications. The main product, Nym VPN, was launched in May 2025 and already has more nodes, currently operates in a few thousand more nodes.
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 is built on a decentralized, zero-knowledge (zero-knowledge) network and operated by independent nodes. Nym has no control over servers, which are distributed globally and run by a global community of privacy-focused activists. For Daniel Vazquez, NYM's LATAM growth director, in an increasingly connected world, data privacy is critical: data privacy
''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 privacy-focused solutions online.
The participation of swisstech in the Web Summit Rio 2025, through Swissnex, seeks not only to show 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 also presents Treeles, Kido Dynamics, Assaia, Herby, RTDT, Solar TRITEC and BEEKEE.
