Founders, Athletes & Trusted AI: H-FARM at DKGCon by OriginTrail | H-FARM

Zeno Tosoni (H-FARM Startup Center) took part in the Decentralized Knowledge Graph Conference in Ljubljana, organized by one of our alumni startups, OriginTrail.  

DKGCon 2025 – Scaling Trust in the Age of AIThe conference was hosted by OriginTrail, a deep-tech startup that uses blockchain and AI to build a Decentralized Knowledge Graph for trusted, verifiable data. It was accelerated in our ecosystem back in 2017 and has since returned here for events like FutureShots and CLUB AI. Our Head of Startups Zeno Tosoni took part in a panel with Žiga Drev, Founder of OriginTrail, Dr. Elnur E. Mammadov, Ministry of Youth and Sports of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and Charlotte Dungan, Chief Learning Officer of Mark Cuban AI.Are you a founder building deep-tech projects?Check out Exponential Science Accelerator: $100K on entry, founder-friendly terms, global network.

Students-Entrepreneurs and “That Spark in the Eyes"

We started out as an incubator and became a campus for education, tech, and startups. Here, it feels natural for 18–20-year-olds to try building companies (sometimes making millions). We encourage the same mindset in our students that Zeno brought to the event: AI makes things more efficient, but what matters is that “spark in the eyes”.

Shaping the Next Gen of Entrepreneurs & Athletes with AI

This was the key question discussed by Zeno Tosoni and the other speakers. The consensus? Young people need real-world contexts and teachers, coaches, and families speaking AI too. We apply this same approach to student-athletes through H-FARM Sports Academy.
