On 25 November, the Blockstand project was organising a webinar, organised as part of the SBS Meeting Standards campaign, to officially present the Blockchain Standardisation Gaps and Recommendations Atlas, recently published by the Blockstand partners.
Blockstand is a EU-funded project, of which SBS is a partner, that aims at:
• Supporting participation of European standardisation experts in international and European standardisation bodies covering on blockchain and DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology).
• Boosting the participation and uptake of blockchain technology by SMEs, both as providers and users of blockchain technology.
• Contributing to the drafting of the Rolling Plan for ICT Standardisation chapter on blockchain and DLT,
• Create a community of SME blockchain experts and a repository of valuable contacts, resources and existing standards in the field.
The webinar was also featuring interventions from European Commission officials and presentations from blockchain experts financed by Blockstand and from innovative SMEs active in blockchain technology.
