EIT Urban Mobility: ‘Mobility Talks’ episode 3 – Blockchain in mobility: use cases, challenges and opportunities

Learn how blockchain technology is relevant to the urban mobility industry, and get to know start-ups working on blockchain-based use cases.

Blockchain technology has entered into many sectors with force. Technology and telecommunications, financial services, logistics and distribution are some of the sectors with the highest adoption. On the other hand, the European Commission believes that urban mobility is one of the industries that will experience most changes in the coming years as a result of technological innovations and changes to citizens’ behavioural changes.

What is the adoption of blockchain technology in this sector? What are the challenges and obstacles facing the industry? Are there sustainable use cases that add value?

To answer these questions we are organising, with the support of Jelurida‘s blockchain experts, an online event with experts and startups working in the intersection of mobility and blockchain.
