In a thriving blockchain ecosystem, clarity and synergy are paramount. Our multi-entity design ensures that each organization contributes unique expertise while remaining laser-focused on strengthening the public blockchain.
This approach—where independent companies collaborate under the governance of Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF)—is a proven model seen in other blockchain ecosystems, such as Cardano’s relationship with the Cardano Foundation, IOHK, and EMURGO.
By upholding financial independence, robust governance, and a shared commitment to the success of PBF, we guarantee that every initiative ultimately serves the Partisia Blockchain community—driving adoption, innovation, and long-term success for the public network.
To provide a clear understanding of how these entities work together, here is a high-level breakdown of their roles:
Each of these companies operates independently but plays a distinct role in strengthening the public blockchain ecosystem under the governance of PBF. Below, we provide a more comprehensive overview of their contributions and governance structures.
At the core of the ecosystem is the Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF), a Swiss non-profit entity responsible for governing the public blockchain’s development, adoption strategy, and ecosystem growth. The foundation is the guardian of the public blockchain, ensuring that it remains open-source, transparent, and accessible for developers, enterprises, and the broader web3 community.
PBF was established in 2020, following an extensive regulatory process to ensure compliance with Swiss financial authorities and alignment with utility token regulations. This regulatory foundation remains a key pillar of the project’s long-term legitimacy and governance.
PBF follows a strict governance model, supervised by the Swiss ESA and is subject to rigorous audits and financial oversight. It operates under a locked-purpose structure, meaning its funds can only be used to develop, promote, and bring the public Partisia Blockchain to market.
The development of Partisia Blockchain dates to March 2017, when the first lines of code were written by Partisia Infrastructure (PI). PI played a critical role in shaping both the technical architecture and regulatory framework, ensuring compliance with Swiss utility token regulations. The early development efforts culminated in Version 1.7, which was acquired and open-sourced by PBF in October 2020, leading to the public release of Version 2 in January 2021.
The Foundation plays a crucial role in strategic planning, ensuring that the blockchain evolves in line with its mission. The original roadmap was set out in the whitepaper, with a yearly roadmap review that is subject to quarterly replanning. The latest iteration was a 6-month roadmap, completed in January 2025.
Although independent companies like PI and GN Solutions (GN or GODS Network), contribute to blockchain development, PBF remains the governing entity, ensuring that public blockchain progress remains transparent, decentralized, and independent from private interests. As governance continues to evolve, efforts are underway to explore more community-driven governance models.
While PBF remains the central governing entity of the public blockchain, several independent companies contribute technical expertise, adoption strategies, and infrastructure. Below, we outline their roles and how they align with PBF’s mission.
Partisia Infrastructure (PI) is an independent Danish company specializing in blockchain solutions, encryption, and privacy-preserving cryptography. However, its role in the ecosystem goes beyond enterprise applications—it has been a driving force behind the technical foundation of the public blockchain since its inception.
Partisia Infrastructure (PI) is the dedicated core developer team and technological brain trust behind the public blockchain. With over a decade of expertise in advanced cryptography, multi-party computation (MPC), and blockchain technologies, PI played a pivotal role in shaping the public blockchain’s whitepaper, regulatory framework, and token classification. As part of a larger group of independent Partisia companies that existed long before the blockchain’s launch, PI operates independently, generating its own revenue through private-sector contracts and projects ranging from quantum computing security to MPC-based key management (via Sepior, now a Blockdaemon company).
PI was responsible for building the core mainnet protocol, leveraging its deep cryptographic expertise to ensure a secure, scalable foundation for the blockchain. This work was delivered at a heavily discounted rate, underscoring PI’s commitment to the success of the public blockchain.
Since then, PI has remained the core development company behind the public blockchain, responsible for:
Beyond development, PI also plays a key role in enterprise adoption, acting as a go-to-market (GTM) partner for businesses transitioning to web3. By working with enterprises on private blockchain solutions, PI is often able to guide them toward the public blockchain, increasing on-chain activity and adoption.
Despite its involvement in development and enterprise solutions, PI operates independently from PBF, with strict governance ensuring that no public blockchain funds are used for private enterprise projects.
GODS Network is a Swiss-based entity established by Partisia Group—the same company that owns Partisia Infrastructure. It was created to solve a major challenge in web3: fragmentation across blockchain ecosystems.
By acting as an interoperability layer built directly on Partisia’s public blockchain, GODS Network connects disparate blockchains into a unified, seamless infrastructure, allowing data and transactions to flow across networks effortlessly.
At its core, GODS Network functions as a decentralized data subscription layer, enabling any smart contract on any blockchain to publish and subscribe to data across chains. This removes the silos between EVM and non-EVM blockchains, making decentralized applications more accessible and functional. The integration also enables Partisia’s public blockchain to provide privacy-preserving computation as a commodity across multiple chains, offering a unique value proposition in the web3 ecosystem.
While GODS Network is built by Partisia Infrastructure, it operates as a completely independent entity. It receives no funding or grants from Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF), ensuring a clear financial separation between GODS Network and the foundation. However, there is close collaboration between GN and PBF on business development, ensuring that GODS Network’s innovations directly drive adoption for the public blockchain.
One of the most significant benefits of GODS Network is that any use of its interoperability features will generate on-chain transactions on Partisia Blockchain. This means that while GODS Network operates independently, its success directly contributes to network activity and revenue generation for Partisia Blockchain node operators. By bridging blockchains and enabling seamless cross-chain transactions, GODS Network is positioned to be a key driver of Partisia Blockchain’s adoption in the broader web3 space.
PBC Apps is a Cayman Islands-based company founded by Brian Gallagher, a former co-founder and previous member of the Foundation Council. As part of the natural evolution of the ecosystem, Brian stepped away from day-to-day involvement with the foundation, shifting his focus to external adoption initiatives outside of PBF.
Originally, PBC Apps played a key role in driving early web3 adoption on Partisia Blockchain, leveraging its expertise to support ecosystem growth and infrastructure development.
The company was engaged in an arm’s length development agreement to build and maintain core ecosystem tools, including the initial explorer and Parti Wallet, which was—until recently—the only available wallet in the Partisia ecosystem.
Over time, the blockchain has expanded beyond a single provider, introducing new wallet solutions and enabling broader developer participation.
Today, PBC Apps operates entirely independently from the foundation and receives no further payments from PBF, originally required to build core infrastructure like wallets. It functions as a third-party service provider, just like any other independent vendor in the ecosystem, with no exclusivity or preferential treatment. This transition reflects the maturity of the public blockchain ecosystem, moving towards a more decentralized and competitive infrastructure landscape.
Ensuring strong governance and alignment between all companies in the ecosystem is a key priority for the Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF). The focus is not just on legal compliance, but on ensuring that every entity involved operates in a way that benefits the public blockchain and serves the long-term vision of the ecosystem.
From the very beginning, PBF was designed with a governance structure that prioritizes independence and accountability. Before the foundation was formally established, the co-founders worked extensively with Swiss regulators to ensure that the blockchain’s design met Utility token regulatory standards. This regulatory groundwork—combined with the development of the initial network version and the publication of the whitepaper—laid the foundation for how PBF would be structured.
To ensure that development efforts remained aligned with the public blockchain’s success, arms-length agreements were put in place with both Partisia Infrastructure and PBC Apps. These agreements were carefully structured and reviewed by an independent third party, ensuring that any services provided by external entities adhered to market standards and fair governance principles.
As PBF continues to evolve, governance remains an area of active development and refinement. The foundation operates under strict Swiss ESA supervision, undergoing annual audits that have consistently resulted in high compliance rankings with no critical issues. However, beyond regulatory adherence, the real measure of good governance is whether the relationships between entities in the ecosystem ultimately benefit the public blockchain and its stakeholders.
Instead of forcing a premature shift toward decentralized governance, the focus will remain on ensuring that the right governance mechanisms are in place to support the blockchain’s long-term success. As part of this commitment, the foundation’s council is actively exploring options to move toward a more community-centric governance model, including community representation on the council and a DAO model. These avenues would ensure that the public blockchain’s governance becomes more decentralized, balanced, and inclusive, with stronger representation from the community.
While the governance structure will continue to evolve over time, these options aim to strengthen transparency, accountability, and community involvement in decision-making. Should a clear route, requirement, and environment for these ideas arise in the future, it will be driven by community demand rather than imposed as a governance model for its own sake.
Governance improvements will be introduced gradually, ensuring that shifts toward decentralization are well-planned and beneficial to the network.
The Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF) is committed to building a sustainable, high-impact public blockchain. The separation of roles and responsibilities allows each organization to focus on its core strengths, ensuring that PBF remains dedicated to governance, adoption, and ecosystem growth while benefiting from technical expertise, interoperability advancements, and infrastructure contributions from aligned entities.
The public blockchain remains at the centre of this ecosystem, and PBF continues to explore opportunities to evolve its governance model to increase community involvement.
Partisia Blockchain is entering a new phase of growth, accountability, and execution, and we are excited to move forward together with the community toward a stronger, more decentralized future.
