What BCCS does

BCCS (Blockchain, Cyber Security and Compliance Solutions Cluster) is a digital innovation hub and cluster organization serving the fintech and Web3 ecosystem, operated by Lithuanian private limited company Devslate Group, UAB (founded 2019, headquartered in Kaunas). The company orchestrates a membership-based community connecting fintech startups and scale-ups with complementary service providers across technology, cybersecurity, legal/compliance, academia (Vilnius University, Mykolas Romeris University), and public-sector partners. Members access tiered benefits ranging from a free Bronze directory listing, through Silver at €90-100/month with full ecosystem access, trade missions, and project collaboration, up to invitation-only Gold with voting rights and working group leadership. Named member organizations include Societe Generale, NEO Finance, Fjord Bank, AMINA, COINMENA, S-PRO, Critical Security, and ExpertLab, alongside academic and R&D institutions.

The core technology offering is not a single software product but rather an ecosystem orchestration platform combined with a portfolio of professional services: Cybersecurity Services (risk-based security solutions, threat response), Technology Innovation Services (product engineering plus whitelabel fintech-ready building blocks for KYC/KYB, card issuing, exchanges/wallets, transaction monitoring, and GRC), Compliance & Regulation Services (AML/CFT, GDPR, PSD2, licensing, fractional compliance officers), International Expansion Services (EU market entry, soft-landing, investor readiness), and specialized advisory for DORA and ISO 27001. The cluster also produces thought leadership content and operates the annual ZERO DAY fintech leadership conference in Vilnius.

Revenue is generated through a combination of recurring membership subscriptions and fee-based professional services including compliance advisory, fractional compliance/MLRO and CISO roles, licensing preparation, and international expansion packages. Go-to-market is community-led: members are acquired via self-serve online registration supplemented by curated matchmaking, trade missions, and the ZERO DAY event channel. The cluster is privately held with no disclosed external institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity.
