Our Mission, Vision, and Objective:

Blockchain technology offers cooperation possibilities among competitors. This cooperation among competitors can reduce operational costs, help to multiply the value of data analysis, enable new products and services for consumers, and therefore foster economic growth, without eliminating the incentives to compete.

We envision an ecosystem of competitors that collaborate in certain aspects to innovate in ways that were impossible before the introduction of blockchain technology.

Our mission is to establish a neutral research environment together with business partners to explore these possibilities and set the foundation for new business ecosystems.

We achieve this by publishing papers on the topic of blockchain-based collaboration and by developing open information systems that can be adopted by companies in the near future.
