The Chamber of Digital Commerce, a leading trade association focused on digital assets and blockchain-based technologies, has announced that tech giant Cisco is joining its Executive Committee.

“Cisco has a strong reputation of identifying promising technologies to deliver remarkable innovations to its customers. The company is a leader in security, real-time capabilities and has a track record of building scalable systems,” said Perianne Boring, founder and president of the Chamber. We’re pleased to welcome Cisco to the Chamber and look forward to channeling its expertise as we work to support the blockchain technology ecosystem.”

Cisco joins this rapidly growing trade association dedicated to promoting the acceptance and use of digital assets and blockchain technology through education, advocacy, working closely with policymakers, regulatory agencies and industry.

“We are excited to join the Chamber of Digital Commerce and collaborate with its membership to accelerate this promising technology frontier,” said Anoop Nannra, Head of Blockchain Initiative for Cisco. “To unlock the value of blockchain for public and private sector applications and ensure widespread adoption, we need to collaboratively drive technology standardization, interoperability, and education. There is much work to be done before blockchain truly sees broad-scale adoption, but there are significant opportunities for this transformative technology to drive enterprise value creation.”

Last month, the Chamber of Digital Commerce, Bloq, Microsoft, and Symbiont, co-hosted the Inaugural Congressional Blockchain Education Day. Over 70 member companies, together with the Congressional Blockchain Caucus, came together to bring awareness to blockchain technology.
