The course demonstrates how to move from an idea to a solution using blockchain-based technologies. Through examples, we illustrate what makes a blockchain-based project unique and how blockchain can facilitate the realization of business ideas. By examining business use cases and blockchain solution patterns, we illustrate the benefits of blockchain, whether it's for distributed data storage, multi-partner collaboration, integrating existing systems, or reimagining and digitizing processes. We support the practical application of theoretical knowledge by analyzing and brainstorming participants' submitted ideas, leading to a high-level project plan.
What we offer
We present the main types and possibilities of blockchain projects, from building your own prototype to integrating with large supply chains.
