With Blockchain, digital tracking along each individual link of the delivery chain becomes practicable: Digital product information, such as the holding of origin, batch number, processing data, expiration dates and delivery details, like compliance with the cold chain – all of these are stored in the Blockchain. As a result, Blockchain can create a completely new dimension of transparency and trust – and with it the basic conditions for greater food safety, more sustainability and improved efficiency. Become familiar with the potential of Blockchain at this session!
