Benefits of using blockchain technology
It is expected that blockchain technology will transform numerous sectors by promoting transparency and fostering fair economic, social, and sustainable global growth and innovation. To fully capitalize on the opportunities blockchain offers, it is crucial for (future) entrepreneurs, managers, and policymakers to become aware of potential applications. This not only means learning to recognize new opportunities but also gaining a better understanding of ethical aspects, such as democratic processes, privacy, and regulatory compliance.
