The emirate believes using the technology to improve social services, finance system and business will make Abu Dhabi more transparent and establish its business-oriented and technological image.
Copenhagen, Denmark, December 27, 2018 –(PR.com)– On December 10, 2018, the Abu Dhabi government hosted a blockchain workshop dedicated to the blockchain technology opportunities and challenges, organized by Berkeley Research Group and OpenLedger experts.
The initiative is anchored with the strategic plans of Abu Dhabi development shared by more than 20 representatives from different governmental agencies. The emirate sees potential in implementing blockchain technology and benefiting the growth of leading industries and improving people’s lives in the United Arab Emirates.
According to Michael Jelen, a Director at BRG, the use of blockchain technology in digitizing Abu Dhabi’s social and finance services is still being considered:
“Blockchain is an interesting option that can have a game-changing effect on the development of Abu Dhabi, enhancing its leadership on the international arena and impacting people’s lives. The government has not made a clear commitment yet and is still exploring all options.”
The authorities of the Abu Dhabi government reviewed the presentation drafted by OpenLedger, one of the leaders in custom blockchain solutions development. One of the main provisions of the proposal included a roadmap that entails the use of blockchain technology for digital identity, funds distribution and freight transportation.
