Blockchain: record and share information in a secure way
Blockchain technology enables you to record and share information securely and reliably. Parties in the blockchain have the freedom to process and supplement information with the consent of others in the chain and with a transparent audit trail. This gives you visibility into any changes made to the data and clearly indicates who made them. This builds trust between you and your suppliers, and allows you to work together based on equivalence.
Secure collaboration
Blockchain is ideal for companies that work together in an extended supply chain, such as logistics companies and retail companies. It also well suited for companies in the financial sector and for governments. Any organization looking for a secure way to collaborate with suppliers can benefit.
Possibilities
