On May 29, 2026, Zug, Switzerland will host Trust Circle, an exclusive invitation-only summit focused on sovereign AI infrastructure, advanced computing, and the future of decentralized digital economies. Organized by AI Cluster Zug and held at SHED Zug, the event will convene just 100 selected leaders from artificial intelligence, finance, blockchain, cybersecurity, and Web3 infrastructure.
Eddie Chong, Chairman of SFI (StableCoin Financial Infrastructure), will be among the featured keynote speakers, presenting SFI’s expanding Web4 ecosystem and its vision for AI-integrated financial infrastructure. SFI is a next-generation value network built on stablecoin rails, combining AI systems, real-world assets (RWA), decentralized payments, and programmable economic infrastructure.
His participation underscores SFI’s growing global visibility and marks a key milestone in its European expansion strategy. At the summit, he will join senior representatives from NVIDIA Switzerland, Julius Baer, the Zug Cantonal government, and leading blockchain organizations during the official soft launch of AI Cluster Zug.
Switzerland Accelerates Its Sovereign AI Strategy
The launch of AI Cluster Zug reflects Switzerland’s increasing focus on sovereign AI development and the creation of trusted digital infrastructure for the next era of computing.
As global competition intensifies around AI compute, data sovereignty, and digital infrastructure, governments are prioritizing independent ecosystems that ensure security, compliance, and long-term innovation capacity. Switzerland, already a global leader in financial regulation and blockchain adoption, is extending its leadership into AI infrastructure and decentralized digital systems.
Through AI Cluster Zug, the country aims to strengthen collaboration between policymakers, research institutions, and private-sector innovators, accelerating the development of next-generation AI ecosystems.
Eddie Chong’s participation highlights the growing intersection between AI infrastructure and financial systems in the Web4 era. In his keynote, he is expected to explain how AI compute networks and decentralized financial rails must evolve in parallel to enable autonomous digital economies.
In this model, AI infrastructure functions as the cognitive engine powering AI Agents, while stablecoin-based financial systems provide the transactional backbone enabling those agents to operate independently at scale.
Trust Circle will serve as one of the earliest global forums where sovereign AI infrastructure and Web4 financial architecture are discussed as a unified technological and economic stack.
Leading Global Figures Converge in Zug
The summit will bring together senior decision-makers from government, AI, finance, compliance, and decentralized infrastructure, creating a high-density environment for cross-sector collaboration.
Government and Policy Leadership
Silvia Thalmann-Gut, Zug’s Cantonal Minister of Economic Affairs, will attend, reinforcing Switzerland’s commitment to emerging technologies including AI, blockchain, and digital infrastructure. Her participation also enhances SFI’s engagement with European regulatory and policy ecosystems.
AI Infrastructure and Computing Leaders
Marc Stampfli of NVIDIA Switzerland is expected to contribute to discussions on AI compute scalability and infrastructure development. Inacta Ventures co-founders Ivo Strohhammer and Ralf Glabischnig will also attend, reflecting strong ecosystem alignment within Switzerland’s Web3 and innovation landscape.
Institutional Finance and Capital Markets
Representatives from leading financial institutions will participate, including Jonathan Theodore Hayes of Julius Baer and Dr. Dmitriy Antropov of Partners Group. They will bring perspectives on AI-driven investment, infrastructure financing, and institutional adoption of emerging technologies.
Their involvement may open pathways for SFI in global capital collaboration, structured finance, and long-term ecosystem partnerships.
Cybersecurity and Digital Trust Experts
As AI and blockchain systems increasingly converge, regulatory compliance and digital security are becoming central priorities. Mathias Fuchs of InfoGuard and Guido Schmitz-Krummacher of the Onchain Foundation are expected to contribute expertise in cybersecurity, blockchain governance, and European compliance frameworks.
Web3 Infrastructure and Ecosystem Builders
Kamal Youssefi, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Hashgraph Ventures and a founding council member of Hedera, will also participate, strengthening the bridge between established Web3 infrastructure and emerging Web4 financial ecosystems such as SFI.
Their presence highlights the accelerating convergence of AI, decentralized finance, and programmable economic networks.
SFI to Unveil Its Full Web4 Ecosystem Architecture
Eddie Chong’s keynote will also spotlight SFI’s end-to-end Web4 ecosystem design, built to support AI-native economies and autonomous digital participants.
At its core, SFI operates a stablecoin-powered infrastructure layer connecting payments, digital commerce, asset tokenization, and investment systems into a unified economic network.
Key components include:
- Solulu Pay
- Solulu Club
- Caviar
- COPX DAO
- RWA Incubator
- RWA Exchange
Together, these modules form a closed-loop ecosystem integrating liquidity, consumption, investment, and value creation within a decentralized framework.
Chong is also expected to discuss the rapid evolution of AI Agents into autonomous economic actors capable of executing transactions, managing assets, and interacting independently within digital markets.
Within this paradigm, stablecoin infrastructure becomes a critical foundation enabling machine-to-machine economies and AI-driven financial operations.
Trust Circle will therefore serve as a pivotal platform for presenting SFI’s unified Web4 vision to global policymakers, institutional investors, and infrastructure leaders.
A Strategic Inflection Point for SFI’s Global Expansion
For SFI, participation in Trust Circle represents a strategic inflection point in its global expansion journey and ecosystem development roadmap.
The event is expected to catalyze deeper engagement across regulatory alignment, institutional partnerships, infrastructure collaboration, and AI-driven financial innovation.
Following the summit, SFI’s strategic priorities will include:
- Expanding Solulu Pay across European markets
- Strengthening compliance frameworks for RWA products
- Advancing AI Agent-based economic systems
- Scaling the RWA Incubator and Exchange ecosystem
- Building strategic partnerships with global AI infrastructure providers
As sovereign AI, Web3, and decentralized finance continue to converge, SFI is positioning itself at the intersection of these transformative technological paradigms.
With Zug serving as a strategic gateway into Europe’s innovation ecosystem, the company’s next phase will focus on compliance-first scaling, international collaboration, and the development of AI-powered financial infrastructure.
