Blockchain services provider STORM Partners made a major announcement during the Web3Fest, along with Cardano (ADA), MultiversX, and other major projects in the crypto space. During the event in Switzerland’s “Crypto Valley,” the company unveiled “Lightningbox,” a new Web3 Sandbox, and relocated its headquarters from Montreux to Geneva.
The initiative aims to enable large enterprises in Europe to harness the potential of blockchain technology and lead their digital transformation efforts.
STORM Partners Joins Cardano (ADA) To Accelerate Blockchain Adoption
The Lightningbox initiative seeks to facilitate the widespread adoption of blockchain by establishing a trusted environment equipped with institutional-grade tools. This initiative empowers large organizations to leverage Web3 tools and build new solutions.
Initially, Lightningbox will focus on three pillars intrinsic to the Geneva landscape: Impact, Consumer, and Finance, with Life Sciences to follow shortly. The selection of these focus areas stems from substantial demand from local traditional players seeking deeper involvement in the digital economy.

Notable early contributors include stablecoin issuer Circle (USDC), cybersecurity provider Hacken, MultiversX’s infrastructure, and law firm Walder Wyss.
Lightningbox aims to transform ideas into reality through a four-phase development process. Starting with brainstorming and workshops, the initiative progresses through observation and improvements, industry and community feedback, and concludes with testing and private launch campaigns.
Decentral House’s Web3-focused Corporate Innovation Day served as the platform for the announcement, bringing together industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and representatives from global brands such as eBay, UNHCR, Hublot, BBVA, and UNICEF.
As mentioned, prominent blockchain projects such as Cardano, Mina Protocol, MultiversX, and Hedera were also represented, underscoring the importance of the event and Switzerland’s willingness to promote crypto and blockchain adoption.
