CoreVest Finance

In 2001, VFX Financial was founded with a clear mission: to provide customers with the specialist knowledge and experience needed to navigate today's volatile global markets. What started as a response to the limitations of traditional banking has evolved into a comprehensive fintech platform that helps businesses and institutions transact globally with confidence. Today, VFX delivers alternative international finance solutions that help clients manage treasury, FX risk, global payments, and liquidity with precision. The company removes complexity from cross-border operations through local business accounts in the UK, Canada, and UAE, multi-currency accounts holding 30+ currencies, and corporate cards in 13 major currencies. Regulated by the FCA in the UK, FINTRAC in Canada, and the DFSA in the UAE, VFX operates from key financial centres including London, Dubai, Toronto, and Madrid. Their team brings structure, discipline, and clear strategy to global treasury and FX, enabling clients to make calm, confident decisions in moments that matter most for their international growth.

We're Upvest, and we enable businesses to build great investment experiences for their end users – seamless, secure and across international borders. Our single Investment API and digital infrastructure streamline the whole process, letting our customers focus on their core business. At Upvest we have the mission to make investing as easy as spending money. Today, investing is still a privilege of a few. We make it more accessible. Our Investment API empowers any business to offer amazing investment experiences. We provide the trading, settlement and custody infrastructure necessary for digital wealth management, enabling banks, fintechs and any direct-to-consumer business to efficiently launch investment products.

We're a specialized cloud platform built from the ground up for AI workloads. We started in 2017 as a crypto mining operation called Atlantic Crypto, but we saw the massive potential in AI infrastructure and pivoted entirely. Now we run data centers across the US and Europe, providing the GPU power that companies need to train and deploy large language models at scale. Our team comes from diverse backgrounds - some of us were commodities traders, others infrastructure engineers - but we all share the conviction that the cloud of the future can't just be a repurposed version of the past. We've built everything with AI in mind, from our Kubernetes-based orchestration to our custom storage solutions. We partner with leading AI labs, enterprises, and startups who need performance that general-purpose clouds simply can't deliver. We're proud to be named among the TIME100 most influential companies, but what really drives us is helping our customers push the boundaries of what's possible with AI.

We're a family office and technology company that operates as operators and technologists first, investors second. Our approach centers on making concentrated investments in healthcare companies, where we partner with management teams to build what we call a "digital twin" - a digital representation that unlocks their potential in the AI era. Rather than just deploying capital, we roll up our sleeves and work alongside portfolio companies to merge operational excellence with technology. What makes us different is our forward-deployed engineering team, Mongoose, which embeds directly with operators to diagnose workflows and ship practical automation that actually moves the needle. We've built an ecosystem including companies like Hypha, Arbiter, and Anthuria, all focused on transforming healthcare and finance through AI-native solutions. Our thesis is straightforward: AI will drastically reduce development costs, so investment firms that build technology alongside their portfolio companies will have a distinct advantage. We take the long view - permanent capital means we're not forced to exit on fixed timelines, letting us focus on building enduring value.

As part of Deutsche Börse Group, this Swiss-based pioneer has been securing trust in digital assets since 2017 - operating where institutional-grade reliability meets blockchain innovation.

Crypto Finance solves this through a FINMA and BaFin-regulated platform that enables banks, asset managers, and corporate clients to securely manage, trade, and store digital assets across Europe. What drives Crypto Finance is the belief that digital assets will transform global finance - but only if built on a foundation of trust, regulation, and institutional excellence. The company's integrated platform combines custody, 24/7 trading, and staking services with the rigorous standards of Swiss and German financial regulation. From becoming one of the first MiCAR-licensed providers in the EU to serving as a SIX-approved crypto custodian, Crypto Finance consistently raises the bar for what professional digital asset services should look like. With offices in Zurich and Frankfurt, the company brings together over 100 specialists from diverse backgrounds united by a mission to professionalise the digital asset market while maintaining the highest levels of security and compliance.
