CCgroup, is a B2B technology PR agency based in London, recently launched ‘Practical Applications of Blockchain Technology’, an industry resource that brings together the most outstanding and innovative blockchain use cases across five key vertical markets.

Practical applications of Blockchain technology has been created to provide an aggregated view of blockchain technology, showing how it is impacting businesses on a practical level.

The resource centre aims to facilitate knowledge sharing and best practice in an emergent but highly contentious sector. In addition to examples of successful applications, curated commentary from journalists, sector experts and insiders give additional backdrop to how this technology is shaping traditional industries. The resource centre will provide information about the various sector uses and benefits, as well as the future possibilities of blockchain technology, all in one place.

“We often hear about technology ‘game changers’ but 99% of these are little more than smoke and mirrors. The Blockchain is different. It’s a truly innovative technology with genuine potential for large scale and far reaching disruption. It’s up there with artificial intelligence and 3D printing in terms of influence. However, despite the hype, examples of the real-world impact are proving hard to find,” said Daniel Lowther, Associate Director and Head of FinTech at CCgroup. “By cutting through the noise and providing a place for practitioners to share and learn about the most interesting and significant applications of the technology, we hope to – even in a small way – contribute towards this positive force for change.”

Practical Applications of Blockchain focuses on five industry sectors which are being influenced by the technology: finance, retail, agriculture, insurance and energy. In addition to providing examples of real-life use cases of the technology in each sector, the resource centre also lists the companies that are currently working in this space. It further highlights the issues that blockchain technology can solve as well as future possibilities.

The resource centre is open to submissions from organisations which believe they have a compelling use case to share with the wider market.
