Transcript

Applied Blockchain has a team of highly skilled in-house developers who have built full stack blockchain applications for many years. To date, we have built end-to-end blockchain solutions, including mobile applications with biometrics and wallets, enterprise blockchain adapters, blockchain data cache for analytics, private, permissioned smart contracts, as well as public blockchain contracts and a token issuance platform. We have worked with both enterprises and startups across banking, wealth management, trade finance, property, aviation, recruitment and legal sectors. We are blockchain agnostic.

In which countries do you operate?

We are headquartered at the Level39 Fintech Accelerator in Canary Wharf, London, but we operate globally: the UK, Switzerland, Netherlands, Australia, China, USA and South America.

How are you different from a (big) consulting firm?

Through building several real-world, solutions for startup clients, our team has hands-on experience in using the technology and building full end-to-end solutions for a number of use cases across a number of sectors. Simultaneously working with enterprise clients means we also build in line with corporate requirements for components such as security, privacy and interoperability, hardening our technology stack and factoring scale in from the architectural design stage.

Is there support in the implementation stage?

Yes, we work closely with our clients to develop and refine the scope of work, from the inception of the idea through to the public launch of the entire solution. Adi Ben-Ari, Applied Blockchain's CEO and Chief Architect, has over 20 years working in enterprise IT across Telecoms and Banking and is well versed in the end-to-end project management of large and complex strategic implementation programmes.

How long is a typical project?

Our team operates with an agile methodology and builds solutions with quick turnaround, usually completing a proof of concept or minimum viable product solution within 6-12 weeks, excluding any last minute client changed. Subsequent stages leading to fully functional solutions deployed to production environments typically take a number of months to complete.

Do you provide training?

Yes, we have delivered blockchain training workshops for many business clients to explain the principles of blockchain and its use cases.

Is your team available to work at the client site?

Yes, if required. Although our agile approach lends itself better to having our developers working at their leisure. In any case, we schedule periodic meetings with our clients to provide project updates and peace of mind, to the high standards our clients rightly expect.

How do we know if blockchain is right for us?

All our engagements begin with a complimentary consultation to explore the business proposition and the use case for blockchain. Use our contact form to send us a message and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
