Program Highlights

Industry Hackathons*

Participants transform Blockchain technology into a Trade Tech Solution for merchandise goods' trade of over $16 trillion. They build a seamless and network state-based solution for an industry that is mired in paper processes, siloed databases, fragmented operations, and risky processes.

Blockchain becomes a life-saving application for end-to-end distribution of immediate requirements like medicine, food, clothing and shelter equipment in collaboration with local government and disaster management bodies.

Blockchain becomes a RegTech solution by lowering not only the identity verification cost for all the banking partners but also the service delivery time for both credit and payments.

Participants build a custodian solution for multiple assets whether it is equity, bonds or any other financial derivatives as it is critical for real-time settlement of both trades and ownership transfers.
