Recently, the think tank "Industrial Resource Strategies" published the brochure "Blockchain Technology for Industrial Production and the Digital Circular Economy", which contains numerous contributions from representatives from science and industry – including iPoint.
The 101-page brochure introduces the topic in an easy-to-understand manner and comprehensively highlights the use of blockchain technology for industrial production and the digital circular economy. To this end, it looks at existing information flows and data along value chains and lifecycles. In addition, the brochure offers insight into current projects as well as an outlook on emerging business models and a new interaction between the players.
We are pleased that iPoint was able to contribute to this brochure with several articles:
- Making data traceable and tamper-proof (Andreas Schiffleitner).
- Digital twins in the digital circular economy (Joerg Walden & Martina Prox).
- Blockchain brings transparency to raw material supply chains (Maroye Marinkovic & Joerg Walden).
