The Infrachain Summit 2021 was an opportunity to recall the importance of distributed ledger technology for the digital and ecological transformation of 4.0 and creative industries.
On November 18, the fifth edition of the Infrachain Summit, an international conference dedicated to blockchain, took place in hybrid mode at LHoFT and in Bologna, Italy.
This year’s theme was dedicated to the benefits of blockchain in Industry 4.0, the circular economy and in the creative industries. With more than 200 participants, the event was well attended.
“Blockchain applications meet the need for solutions that promote the digital and ecological transformation of the economy, including industry,” said Franz Fayot, Luxembourg’s Minister of Economy, recalling the economic importance of the technology.
Cross-industry experts from Belgium, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain and the United States shared their experiences.
They were able to present concrete technology-based applications and operational use cases in different fields: such as 3D printing, chemical tracking, recycling, intellectual property and royalty management, entertainment, video games or even automotive.
The audience was also able to see how tokenization and NFTs, smart contracts and digital identification are building the economy of tomorrow.
Nomadic Labs, the leading sponsor of the conference, demonstrated use cases based on the Tezos blockchain.
Based in Luxembourg Infrachain is a non-profit organization with a European reach. The association was launched in May 2017 by several industry players with the impetus and support of Digital Luxembourg, the Luxembourg government’s collaborative initiative that strengthens and guides the country’s digital efforts.
The a.s.b.l. is committed to creating a high-level governance framework that enables Blockchain applications to be operational in the current regulatory environment.
