Information Technology & Services - Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
TRAINING | CONSULTING | MENTORING | DEVELOPING | COMMERCIALISINGFounded by a group of professionals with experience in Cryptocurrency and BlockChain Technology - A Block Chain Factory (ABCF) is the premier blockchain collaborative development shared workspace. Our first office being established in Adelaide, South Australia in November 2017 A place for people and businesses wanting to learn the Why and What of Blockchain for business as well as an environment for the development and commercialising of blockchain applications and applying the use of blockchain to business. Blockchain also has potential applications far beyond bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Blockchain is, quite simply, a digital, decentralised ledger that keeps a record of all transactions that take place across a peer-to-peer network. The major innovation is that the technology allows market participants to transfer assets across the Internet without the need for a centralised third party.From a business perspective, it's helpful to think of blockchain technology as a type of next-generation business process improvement software. Collaborative technology, such as blockchain, promises the ability to improve the business processes that occur between companies, radically lowering the "cost of trust." For this reason, it may offer significantly higher returns for each investment dollar spent than most traditional internal investments. - PWCWe will develop a working environment that brings together the specialists in all aspects of Blockchain including Legal, Financial and Technical. This will include close working relationships with Universities and associated Startup Incubators.We will also support crypto currency education and trading as well as IoT development and other consulting support services to help startups in the BlockChain world.
