IBM - Blockchain Explained - Introduction for Business

This presentation covers how to identify good blockchain use-cases, examples of good use-cases and how to use existing investment in middleware (such as IBM MQ) in conjunction with blockchain for good effect.

The first slide deck from the IBM Blockchain Foundation for Developers course with an introduction to IBM Hyperledger architecture.

This Case Study first describes the power of Blockchain for the Financial sector. Then, it takes a deep dive for an implementation strategy for Permissioned Blockchain network based on Hyperledger Blockchain technology that could accommodate different organizations and their loyalty programs.

At the 2017 NC Digital Government Summit, I gave a presentation to demystify Blockchain. The presentation explained what is blockchain, compared primitive trade to Burning Man -- and, highlighted the record and public key; then ended with specific use cases.

Blockchain is a shared, immutable ledger that can record transactions and track assets in business networks. It allows companies to share records and establish trust without the need for a central authority. IBM's blockchain platform uses Hyperledger Fabric to develop applications that provide benefits like reduced costs, improved traceability and data sharing between organizations. It can help industries like finance, supply chain and healthcare by creating transparency and efficiency in business processes.

This document discusses how blockchain technology can be applied to supply chain management. It begins by providing background on the origins of blockchain technology before describing how a blockchain could track the supply chain of coffee from Ethiopia to a coffee roaster. It then discusses some frameworks for supply chain blockchain applications, including Hyperledger Grid and IBM Food Trust. IBM Food Trust is presented as a solution for improving transparency, food safety, and efficiency in the food industry by allowing real-time tracing of food products and digital sharing of certifications across the supply chain.

In this keynote, delivered at the Blockchain Forum of BPM 2019, I summarized and reflected on research on BPM and blockchain over the last four years, including model-driven engineering, process execution, and analysis and process mining. I also covered selected use cases and applications, as well as recent insights on adoption. The keynote closed with a discussion of open research questions.

This document summarizes an EY presentation on blockchain and identity and access management. It discusses how blockchain can transform IAM by facilitating a decentralized, trust-based model of identity verification and access management. Key benefits include improved user experience, regulatory compliance, risk reduction, and cost savings. The presentation provides examples of blockchain applications today and outlines how it could fit into the next generation of IAM architecture.

Updates on market status for the Blockchain in supply chain uses. Why Blockchain and supply chain is the perfect match. Open questions for the future.

Its origins may be traced all the way back to the blockchain technology. There are decentralized blockchain networks. Blockchain technology is a wonderful innovation of the twenty-first century.

An experienced team including former consultants from IBM and CSC is launching a new SaaS platform called Loansquare to digitize financing activities for banks, corporations, and municipalities. Loansquare aims to improve processes in the structured finance sector by providing a multi-bank portal for clients, digitizing interactions, and standardizing data. The platform offers services for deal origination, syndication, servicing, and more. Loansquare is currently in development with 50+ prospects and plans to go live in Q3 2017. The company also sees potential to leverage blockchain technology for the platform going forward.

Modeling is important for translating business concepts into technical concepts that can be implemented on a blockchain. Key elements to model include assets, contracts, transactions, the business network, and participants. Assets correspond to real-world items and are modeled as data structures. Contracts define the rules and algorithms for modifying asset states. Transactions invoke contracts and are recorded on the blockchain. The business network and participants are modeled as the technical network and identities. Modeling provides a bridge between business and technical views to enable blockchain solutions.

An introduction to the features and business benefits of IBM Blockchain Platform. (Also check out Technical Introduction to IBM Blockchain Platform, which I've uploaded separately.)

This document provides an overview of blockchain technology and its applications for business. It begins with defining blockchain as a shared, immutable ledger for recording transactions across a network of nodes. It then discusses how blockchain can be used to build trust and transparency in business processes by enabling real-time sharing of information across organizations. The document provides examples of how blockchain is being applied in various industries like trade finance, food supply chains, and healthcare to improve processes like payments, provenance tracking, and data sharing. It also outlines factors to consider when selecting blockchain use cases and developing blockchain solutions.

Blockchain is a leading technology that has brought in a wave of change. This distributed ledger technology forms the underlying technology for Bitcoin exchange, but over a period of time, Blockchain emerged as a mainstream technology, and now it finds a multitude of applications. Blockchain developers are in great demand across the different industrial segments; from food to finance, you can find a multitude of applications of Blockchain technology.

This document provides an overview of IBM's blockchain platform and how it can help transform enterprises. It discusses how permissioned blockchain can optimize ecosystems, reduce risk, and create new value for businesses. It also provides an example use case of tracking shipments using IoT sensors and blockchain. Finally, it describes the key components of IBM's blockchain platform, including tools for developing smart contracts, governing networks democratically, and operating production networks at scale with security and performance.

Blockchain technologies can enable trusted transactions by providing a distributed digital ledger of transactions and asset transfers. The document discusses several use cases of blockchain including enabling global payments, improving supply chain visibility and traceability, facilitating trade finance and private equity administration, and addressing challenges in renewable energy flexibility and aircraft maintenance records. Blockchain allows for near real-time sharing of information across organizations on a secure immutable platform.

This document discusses various blockchain use cases and projects by IBM. It provides 23 examples of blockchain applications for industries like trade finance, payments, supply chain, food safety, healthcare, energy, and more. For each one, it summarizes the key details including what the application does, how blockchain enables it, and the main benefits. The document aims to demonstrate how IBM is working with clients across sectors to develop blockchain solutions for real-world problems.

This document provides an overview of blockchain technologies and how IBM can help businesses apply blockchain. It defines key blockchain concepts like shared ledgers, smart contracts, consensus, and privacy. It also discusses example use cases for blockchain like supply chain management, financial transactions, and regulatory compliance. The document outlines IBM's engagement model for helping customers explore blockchain, build proofs of concept, and scale blockchain applications. It positions IBM as supporting the open source Hyperledger project and providing tools and services to make blockchain adoption easier for businesses.
