NGI Research Goes To Standardisation

Project description

Improving Europe's blockchain ecosystem

Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies have the potential to develop a more 'human' internet based on Next Generation Internet (NGI) values which re-imagine and re-engineer the internet for the third millennium and beyond. However, several challenges in the process could undermine this effort. The EU-funded NGI-GO2S project will strengthen the European Blockchain Ecosystem and excellence in research by supporting dozens of promising bottom-up projects capable of developing and implementing advanced blockchain technologies addressing scalability, interoperability and sustainability issues. The project will be based on Big Data analytics technology, aiming to attract and integrate exceptional researchers in the European Blockchain Ecosystem.
