Bitget Partners with GDGoC ETH Zurich to Advance Web3 and AI Education
Bitget, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced an annual partnership with the Google Developer Group on Campus (GDGoC) at ETH Zurich—a prestigious student-led tech community at one of the globe’s top universities for science and engineering. Revealed on December 17, 2025, this collaboration falls under Bitget’s Blockchain4Youth initiative, a $10 million program dedicated to fostering crypto education and talent development among young innovators. The partnership aims to co-organize educational events, including hackathons, workshops, panel discussions, and practical sessions, to equip ETH Zurich students with cutting-edge skills in Web3 and artificial intelligence (AI).
ETH Zurich’s GDGoC chapter, founded in 2020, hosts talks, study jams, hack nights, and community events for developers, designers, and researchers. Bitget’s involvement will provide real-world insights into the Web3 market, bridging academic theory with industry practice. Ignacio Aguirre, Bitget’s CMO, emphasized: “Education remains essential when entering and navigating such a dynamic and innovative market like the Web3 sector.” The initiative seeks to nurture future builders, with events potentially featuring expert sessions and interactive workshops throughout the year.
This move builds on Bitget’s growing educational footprint, including past collaborations with universities like the University of Zurich (scholarships via Blockchain4Youth) and hackathons with Google Developer Groups. Blockchain4Youth has already reached millions through campus activations, online courses, and partnerships like UNICEF’s Game Jam for blockchain literacy.
Why ETH Zurich? A Hub for Tech Innovation
ETH Zurich consistently ranks among the world’s elite institutions, producing groundbreaking research in AI, blockchain, and distributed systems. Its GDGoC chapter aligns perfectly with Bitget’s mission to democratize Web3 knowledge, offering students exposure to practical applications in decentralized finance, NFTs, and AI-blockchain convergence.
Broader Impact: Nurturing the Next Generation of Web3 Talent
Bitget’s Blockchain4Youth, launched with a $10 million commitment, targets global youth empowerment—past efforts include campus tours, scholarships, and hackathons reaching over 1 million participants. This ETH Zurich tie-up extends that reach into Europe’s tech heartland, fostering skills in emerging fields where AI meets blockchain (e.g., decentralized AI models, privacy-preserving tech).
In a $3.57 trillion crypto ecosystem where education bridges adoption gaps, Bitget’s partnership isn’t just sponsorship—it’s investment in tomorrow’s innovators. Workshops, hackathons, and expert sessions await; the future of Web3 gets smarter. DYOR on upcoming events.
