 because I'm such a nice guy there we go now okay welcome everybody to the second of November hyper ledger supply chain and trade finance extravaganza here after lots of work we're going to spend time here today talking about an ebook that many people as part of this SIG have been working on through uh actually probably most of this year here so uh hold that thought we're glad that you're here whether you're uh live or whether you're watching us on YouTube later on first off we'll do our normal stuff here hyper ledger all are welcome looking for lots of thoughts ideas um bring them all out uh to the rest of the the rest of the group here also please don't say anything confidential uh here I believe in the ebook we've gotten rid of any confidential stuff because this is the group that is an open source an open community here so with that let me scroll down a little bit here um upcoming events on the 16th of November uh tentatively we're going to have Gia Lorenzo Miglio PhD student who's been working on a report for the european commission on implementation of blockchain solution so he's going to spend a little bit of time with us on um November 16th and tentatively on November 30th we have dr mario rykel um from ppi payment solutions leader and uh he's going to talk about iso 2020 22 uh well however you say that um in cross part of payments and harmonization and most specifically he's head of an implementation group uh for non finance so right up our alley here on November 30th and then summer fourth hyper ledger member summit in tokyo should you be in the neighborhood there so with that let's get rolling here i've concluded a link here and if you're uh see the chat you can go and um bring up this link and then you can actually see the ebook as we are as it's currently constituent can put together we'll use that word rather than constituent it here um and our intent here is to walk through this ebook through the day so let me switch pages and go here oops let's bring this all the way back to the beginning and see where i was okay so um here how this came about way back when probably february something like that daniella barbosa had a biker ledger she sent me an email and said hey would you guys be interested in uh creating an ebook and so the next question was what's an ebook and we got into the little discussion and and the bottom line is trying to create a deliverable a marketing piece a highlight white paper actually white paper is probably the best description that describes a little bit of hyper ledger as well as describes a number of the use cases uh that have been successful within supply chain and trade finance and i think that's one reason why this one came out in 2023 because we've had some success stories associated with it so the purpose is really when we decided early on that the purpose is going to be more got geared towards a business audience and the solutions appropriate with that we are not going to spend as much time on the technical solution certainly over time maybe that's a place that we go for right now it's associated with business and what the values associated with that um this is a document that we've been working on we intend to have have it live and make updates to it later on so that if you're watching this and you don't see your solution in here you are more than welcome to contact us and possibly you can come into our future versions of this so with that let's go here and let's just look at the table of contents and we have a number of people that will speak here and share some of their insights as they they've done a lot of work as we've gone along here uh first off when we're in introduction first off a little bit of time here on what is hyper ledger and then we'll talk a little bit about what's happening in blockchain and in supply chain and trade finance and then we'll talk about our SIG specifically and then the meat of this is all the use cases uh there's been a lot of work going through trying to decide which use cases we provide uh within within this white paper within this e-book here and as you as you look at these use cases uh the ones a through g here they have very definitive numeric benefit that we were able to uh bring out and publicly say that uh numeric benefit and that was one of the major criteria for us including uh these use cases within our e-book here and then following the use cases here a little bit more about hyper ledger and we'll talk we'll talk about the future with this so with that Tomas would you like to talk a little bit about hyper ledger here you can get to be Daniella today yeah fantastic yeah thanks a lot Tom so I will just quickly cover our first uh two pages of the e-book um and thank you Tom Alicia, Jeff, Ned for all the hard work on the book um so let me just for those of you not familiar with hyper ledger let me just say that the hyper ledger foundation is an open global source ecosystem for enterprise blockchain technologies we're a part of the linux foundation and thus we are providing a neutral home for developers to collaborate contribute and maintain this open source software the hyper ledger foundation hosts a number of open source projects and we'll come back to that at the end of this book to a little bit more detail as much of the time we have right because the ecosystem is really really big and all of our projects are developed and governed as an open source technologies which means that all the hyper ledger projects are actually community led now one thing I would like to emphasize in regards to open source for those of you watching now or later that are not familiar with it is that open source software is a trans open source software development is a transparent process which is particularly well suited for blockchain technologies simply because of their distributed nature it brings together organizations and individuals uh with different requirements and basically enable them to work together um now to some of the goals of the hyper ledger foundation is to provide a neutral open and community driven infrastructure supported by technical and business governance it's also to foster the development and adoption of cross industry platforms which are powered by distributed ledger technology and finally to educate the public about the market opportunity for enterprise great blockchain technology so um you there is a couple of links here in the book and you are welcome to check out our website or also contact us directly if you'd like to learn more and we will return to our ecosystem at the end of the book after the use cases but for now Jeff please over to you so um oh okay by the way I'll mention this here we Jeff is uh Jeff Privitch is one of the co-chairs for the special interest group as well as Alicia who will be following right after Jeff here so thank you for your work throughout the year here together uh to bring this together so Jeff go ahead yeah just recap on what you're seeing on the page here so you know why use blockchain for supply trade and trade finance and what what aspects and characteristics of blockchain enable supply chains to be more effective and and again I'm always what I say supply chain is going to be supply chain and trade finance and so uh some of the very big issues around it is traceability um and immutability of the data that's in there and that becomes very important for transparency it comes important for compliance because of the data is that's being put into these supply chain blockchain is immutable um also uses smart contracts make that actions on on data that comes in especially around compliance uh more effective in dealing with issues quickly so blockchain is perfect for that traceability immutability because often if you get into situations as a vendor using rely on a supply chain the ability to to have immutable data that suggests maybe something went wrong with the product something went wrong with the the shipment of the product um maybe it was broken and so that immutability of that data coming in and again that results in traceability allows more efficient uh interaction between producers and retailers so those characteristics around blockchain over other systems is very important and again we're going to be giving some examples in here about how blockchain is very efficient and GSE for first paragraph reducing disputes that's a very big one fraud and payment cycles and so um and there's an example of how with um shipments more it can take me more efficient so um good overview here on this page of how blockchain has advantages over traditional IT systems good thanks Jeff Alisha you want to go some go to the next page here sure thank you okay so our next page is about us about our SIG the supply chain and trade finance SIG which was really created last year early last year by merging two different SIGS by merging the supply chain SIG and the trade finance SIG so our membership is global we have people with supply chain backgrounds logistics backgrounds trade finance backgrounds all professionals who are looking to learn more and really move the state of supply chain industry forward by using enterprise-grade black blockchain solutions by developing them by learning what other companies are doing by learning what the capabilities are sharing best practices sharing what's been learned through their work we have we regularly have meetings every other week that incorporate presentations by people from across the industry we have people who attend live from around the world and then we also have people who watch the recordings afterwards we share them on youtube we post those links onto our wiki so that people can learn from not just our live events but also our library our our ever-growing library of um past resources in addition to that in last year we've created a weekly news digest this was something that Andrea for Sonini really drove that initiative so every week now there is a there is a digest of current news what's going on in supply chain what's going on in trade finance especially related to blockchain and we also find other ways that our members can learn about different topics we're interested in and you'll see at the bottom of this page we've got flyers from a couple of different presentations we've had picture of Eric Valacate one of our former chairs speaking live at an event in toronto last year then over on the right that's a hyperlink to the youtube channel part of hyperledger's youtube channel this is the playlist specifically of webinars from rc so if you're watching this right now when you're interested in learning more all of these resources are great ways for you to learn more about specific hyperledger uses and also learning more about the sick and how you can take part so please do click through on the visitor wiki click through onto our linkedin page and follow and come join us for a meeting we'd love to have you on from that would love to have you yeah tom do you want to start talking about the use cases so let's roll here let's talk about this so how do we decide on these use cases I mentioned a little bit earlier certainly we're looking for supply chain and trade finance use cases so that was kind of the first category or the first gate to get through second is that these use cases these implementations needed to use some flavor of hyperledger one of the hyperledger projects within their solution it turns out that many of them are fabric related probably not too much of a surprise associated with that but at least the criteria was you got to be using one of the hyperledger projects and tomas will talk a little bit about the different projects a little bit later on next as I mentioned is a production the use case so the solution needs to be in some form of production and then next is that there needs to be some sort of publicly available numeric benefit and that could take many forms I mean yeah it could be in the terms of currency I'm saving these amount of dollars this amount again this amount of oh god why am I drawing a blank here anyways whatever currency it is here I mean it could be in that flavor as a cost savings or revenue enhancement that's always fairly challenging to do so we took it to the next level and said hey if you can put some sort of numeric benefit you made something happen happen more quickly right or you were able to use cost and just say a number you don't have to say the actual amount you just have to say a percentage amount that goes along with that but those are sufficient to show that there is benefit associated with this beyond the fact of oh blockchain is good and we like to we like to do those kind of things and we'll talk a little bit because in the additional projects there's a section of ones that we'll talk about more specifically and there's additional projects additional projects generally they were ones that did not have numeric benefit in some way shape or form in a public forum right or they weren't totally in production yet but there's something interesting or there's something that has as is more of a standards focus there so that's why we get into the additional project but still we wanted to share them with the audience here looking at what's going on in supply chain and trade finance so that's a little bit of an underpinnings associated with this and the criteria for inclusion inclusion here so let's go through and we're going to roll and have everyone kind of share who the people who have done most of the work in validating these use cases together with the organization we're going to let them share for a minute or two what they like about this just in use case so with that we're going to start with the provenance that I think that's you Jeff right that is me so this good example of how blockchain can be used to trace shipment in a supply chain of perishable items and in this particular case there's a company called provenance right and they have something called the venture platform so just for a minute think about yourself purchasing a bottle of wine anywhere in the world opening it up and then what the price is and it tastes bad it doesn't taste right it's not spoiled it just tastes bad that's that's the fear of all wine producers around around the world they get they get a wine through the retailer and it doesn't taste as it should so what was the problem well first of all they don't really know today but secondly the financial arrangements in these situations are the wine producer eats the cost so it's returned and I've done this myself but purchase bottle of wine it's not there's different ways wine can get ruined but you can tell that this has been spoiled as well retailers automatically take them back and the way it works today is it gets sent back to the producer and they eat the cost the producer is not in a position to say what actually happened to it they've tested it went left the winery but by the time it hit that store shelf and was opened up by the customer there's been some kind of issue so what blockchain allows them to do through the finish or platform is quite unique and what they're doing with some major wineries right now and again their business has been growing is the use of iot so inside bottle caps or on cases of wine again it depends on excuse me what the particular winery is doing they'll have temperature and pressure settings that actually go into the bottle cap and I've actually seen one of these and they were usable and they track from that winery who has sampled it by the way and done some extensive chemical analysis to see what the what the flavoring was they will track that through the supply chain so iot devices will send out the temperature and pressure and again pressure is mostly associated to say why is there pressure and wine champagne's and expensive wines can be put under conditions where some of the pressure escapes and the corks let go so they have both reasons but as the standard comes in the blockchain again it's immutable so now it can't be changed it allows them to trace the tracking of that wine the conditions from the time left that winery whether it's going across an ocean across the country what kind of conditions normal conditions conditions that they have been exposed to and they do have bounds around those that the just the just the companies have to follow for wine so for example that makes it all the way through let's say in the u.s. from california ends up in the midwest if it's september which a lot of them wine producers that's when they send their wine out if it's been exposed to 95 degree heat for two days that wine potentially get spoiled and so these iot devices continuously read off of conditions and send it over to the blockchain inside the blockchain again another advantage of blockchain over applications are smart contracts so smart contracts pick up this data and it can tell within the smart contract what's happening with that wine and before it hits that shelf and retail alarms go off and say this wine has been spoiled not for sale to the customer so prevents that winery from giving bad wine to the customer also attracts the finances so they know through the conditions of that bottle of wine that case when crossing the country or the ocean where that was exposed to environmental conditions that you waited that wine and so from a financial standpoint you got two things taking place one is the logistics suppliers know that the bottles are now being tracked so they tend to be more vigilant over the conditions exposing that wine and also if a supplier with the logistics company that's handled it from the supplier down the chain the spoil that's now in their purview and that's where the smart contracts can penalize that shipper for saying you're the individual to spill that wine so just to recap on this and it's been very successful so a couple of very big wineries there's a couple of french wineries that have now been put on the platform since this writing but again tens of thousands of bottles they've noticed already have not become one big NEPA producer to save them tens of thousands of bottles not being returned because a lot of that is associated with where most of it is transportation companies logistics companies being very vigilant on the penalties associated with these lines if they're exposed for certain time periods to conditions that harm that wine so again blockchain has a larger range of mobility with animal smart contracts renewable data coming in from iot devices so they know that there's no central authority that could be changing that data and also traceability so very good application of blockchain technology across items that are perishable and i know there's some olive oil companies are looking at the same type of solution beautiful thanks jeff let's roll to the next one here gsp in i think tomas you're gonna share a little bit about this one sure i'll quickly go through it i know we have still a lot on our plate so i'll try to sum it up and just to let you know that if you're interested in more details on this use case we have both case study written on it as well as the webinar and both are linked down here so please follow these links to get more info so global shipping business network in short is a trade data utility platform and it's built on hyper ledger fabric indeed as all of the project in this ebook now very briefly what is the problem so why did this come about so first of all global container shipping is very inefficient and it's burdened by paper based processes and some of the pertinent issues that are you know the gsbn is trying to solve is that the data among these multiple stakeholders is really trapped in the organizational silo there's a lot of manual and time consuming processes paper based you know edi uh fixed machine believe it or not um and clearance custom clearances take too long and are often subject to fraud and in fact one report i think from harvard business review estimates that that sort of customs fraud amounts to about half a billion dollars each year so and this brings us to high costs and poor customer service and there is actually a research done by by tomasiansum from coban haggum business school who was following the shipment of roses from kenya to netherlands and he found that the the shipping of the paper documentation following the container is actually caused the same amount as actually shipping that container which is just mind blowing and a report by the united nations social commission for asia pacific estimates that a region wide cross border paperless trade would generate almost 260 billion dollars in additional trades annually and this is basically what gsbn has been trying to do to optimize the flow of information across global supply chains simplify global trade and accelerate the digital transformation so basically we are talking about the large infrastructure for exchanging this information based on blockchain now just a quick word of why we are using the blockchain in these sort of applications so you know if it's so outdated right and we have all of this track and trace we have amazon or ups you know you can always trace your package well the big problem in global container shipping is that not only the data is fragmented but these companies are often in competition with each other so you really need a blockchain here to get this distributed trust right so if you want to have the digitized global supply chain where with the data reside right and having this distributed ledger to basically facilitate this trust is something that is needed in this type of scenario and just to finish up a global shipping business network right now handles one third of the global container shipments okay that's it about gsbn and please follow our case study and the webinar for more information beautiful thanks too much okay alisha you're up thank you next one on here members we'll remember that back in february we heard from if you want to look at dlt labs well a few months ago a few weeks ago dlt labs was rebranded as connects and connects has their asset track platform with a freight tool that is being used by walmart canada among other companies that's had a huge impact in creating a lot of benefits for their use walmart experienced walmart observed that the freight process went from being 11 different steps of the freight payment process went from 11 different steps to only five steps people involved in payments people on the accounts receivable side know that days sales outstanding this can have a huge impact on cash flow and then companies being able to to pay their bills well what had been more than say more than 30 days that is now down to less than 48 hours that that's a huge impact on cash flow management makes things a lot easier and a lot of stress shipment disputes think about when a company is saying you know this this didn't arrive and the logistics provider saying we were there or our drivers had to wait several hours before they were unable to unload before they were able to unload well now because of the tracking with the asset track freight these shouldn't just speeds have gone from 70% to less than 2% annually they've also seen they've seen a close to 5% ROI of their annual freight spend that's when you think about a company besides of walmart canada that really adds up so any company that has logistics where logistics is an issue this demonstrates that the connects platform provides a lot of value if you're looking in the ebook at the bottom of the profile we see the hyper ledger member case study we also see several webinars both the ones from arsig back in february and then a few years ago shannon hamilton of connects presented to the supply chain sig and more recently uh london wooden was part of a team that wrote a harvard distance review article on how walmart canada uses blockchain to solve their supply chain challenges i encourage everyone to go look at those resources and learn more beautiful well set there lisha yep go ahead thank you raid waltz okay i'll talk about our trade waltz here and trade waltz has some similarities to uh gsbn it's on east asia focus it started back in 2017 so pretty early on here and uh they had originally um 13 members now it's growing to 40 primary members 140 overall members that are using trade waltz interesting enough they started going in uh right before covid so um one of the issues is i got all this paperwork as tomas was talking about earlier with letters of credit and invoices and bills of lading i got all this paper but if you're not in the office due to covid then it's kind of hard to access all that paper here but having to trade platform i'll uh trade waltz here uh you're able to access all that stuff from anywhere and work together with all the your trading partners uh and the good news here if you look on the right uh green box there the um top item here increased operational efficiency by 47 percent in actual usage so that's the kind of numeric benefit that we're talking about in each one of these or bring bring wanted to bring out very strongly here so you know when you talk about 72 hours of process paperwork and in on japan or 235 hours to process it some places nage up or over 400 sometimes in africa in 350 per transaction reduction of 47 percent is is very material here uh and one of the fun fact here that uh back in 2021 trade waltz actually did some work where they moved bill of lading from their system over to another company's ethereum based system so the good news here is that none of this is closed this is open just like the idea behind all of the hyper ledger communities here and able to share with other blockchains out there so with that let's move on to the next one trust your supplier and alisha i think we're back to you and back to me so trust your supplier is a platform that was developed by us company chain yard and ibm for um the supplier management platform they work together um using industry standards and by working with global companies to build an entire team for their platform that does end supplier lifecycle and risk management and within that they're embedding information from third party verifiers and from companies rating systems so think about moody's analytics think about done in broad street that information can be included in both in both supplier and buyer profiles making it a lot easier to onboard um looking thinking about the results and over to the little results box on the right hand side of the page for one customer their business case showed that their supplier onboarding time went from 25.4 hours to a four and a half hours so this was reducing by 82 percent which saved them a million and a half dollars their supplier screening time aggravated aggregated screening time for one customer was reduced by more than 100 hours that saved two and a half million dollars so um also quality assessments the time on that went down by 26 percent and performance audits for one customer were reduced by 50 percent that's an additional two and a half million dollars these numbers add up these are the types of benefits that customers experience when using this platform if you look at the bottom of the page you'll see that there is a hyper ledger member case study you'll also see a member webinar um a hyper ledger member webinar on trustor's supplier and then a webinar where gary store from chainard came in and presented their platform to our sig and then a recent harvard business review article where they were featured a remedy for supplier onboarding problems so again strongly recommend that people interested in learning more click through on those resources and learn more about this company and the work that they're doing okay thank you thanks next up vertrax we got two more here vertrax jeff you're up gotta come off a mute yep it hasn't changed screen yet it's still on it's still on chain yard i am there we go user user air there we go okay uh so um next use case is uh again it's it's similar to the vinnisher in a sense that the key here is the immutability of data coming in from devices um on a blockchain solution and so um company called vertrax supplies supply supply chain management software to logistics companies and their focus is oil and gas bulk shipments and what these are when you talk about oil and gas bulk shipments these are short haul deliveries or what they often call transports where you've got several loading stations terminals around a metropolitan area and you've got the fleets of trucks and how do you optimize when things should be picked up and when should they be um delivered into whom and so on and so forth and so I am not a logistics expert any stretch but anybody out there who is knows how important linear models aren't how difficult it is to keep those linear models um accurate through assurance processes and so those aren't art and science companies keep that technology under wraps and so what vertrax does that helps enhance those linear models by optimizing in real time where those trucks should be where they should be picked up what products should be picked up and delivered to who and it's just it's a mechanism that occurs 24 hours a day vertrax through it's it's a blockchain it's a private blockchain fabric it pulls a lot of that data in and in real time it's more contract it gives updates to logistics people who can rewrite trucks for the most efficient mileage or the least amount of mileage to deliver all the gas who go to your local gas station sometimes you'll see a gas station's truck there with its name on it often you see it not and just a third party and that's due to some of these changes that occur in real time blockchain is excellent at pulling that data from our databases telling a truck don't go here now over here it's less miles through now it's effectively pick up the um product and do it to where it's going to be delivered through short haul companies whether they're only gas deliveries or they're delivering materials for construction they like to keep those trucks full and moving an empty truck one on the road is not generally relevant so linear models tend to optimize pick up and deliver pick up and delivery as much as possible vertrax it's out on top of that through iot devices and also again through it's when the smart contracts to ship data to its linear models in more real time plus you get oil gas delivery company sorry oil gas both delivery company delivering the same amount of gallons doing a lot less miles and we can see that we can see down there but cost savings range for $500 per mile and let's let's conceive somebody close to about 700 thousand dollars a year and um reduce costs the room the ability to deliver same volume through less miles and essentially what you're also going to do is you can now have your fleet marked like that you can deliver even more so that's the advantage of getting a blockchain in use of iot devices good deal thanks jeff let's go on to the last one here before we get to the additional projects ventura snap yes uh so to use the the movie dude where's my car well this is kind of how these guys uh the operate so you think about the efficiencies associated with the assembly line about how everything is there but this company was focused on what happens when these finished vehicles leave and then tracking that so you think about how many vehicles are are built and then the fact that there's not a good tracking system to get them from the factory to the end consumer so that you know they looked at this as you know here was an area of logistics that was full of paperwork inefficiencies um you know when is the vehicle going to arrive but also more data that we can put about a vehicle and i realized that some of it has to do with like recall work so they wanted to use the private blockchain as a way to store information about vehicles and then also be able to track them logistically from the factory to the end consumer so this is something that a lot of you know they're doing a deal with Mitsubishi Europe but not only finished vehicles but you think of all the uh the the companies that use vehicles just to track them um avis herds uh fleets so a lot of it is just a way to kind of just keep a lot of information about these vehicles after they leave the factory um tracking them being able to cut down on costs associated with transportation so right now they're looking at you know just the savings of around three to ten dollars per finished vehicle so you think about how that will add in you know really some savings there um it really is about taking a process that's very paper labor intensive silo getting information in about these cars where people can access them you know you have companies are dependent on cars showing up i mean come on how many of us have always heard about a car hey when's that car going to get here yeah well it's here it's there yeah it's it's in Detroit it's it's in Hong Kong right now when is it going to show up this gives more of an insight to the vehicles that have left the factory where they are and it really can cut down costs for those on the receiving end but also those that are shipping it so this is something that not only for finished vehicles but also for fleets rental fleets just company fleets information that can be stored about these vehicles it's it really has an opportunity to go beyond actually what their initial mission is beautiful thanks Ned for sharing Ventura's story here and pulling that one together here so now let's go on to additional projects so when i look back over the last six months or so seven months let's call it seven months here i believe we went through probably 60 70 different types of solutions use cases out there so the seven that you saw were the ones that met met the overall criteria now there are also ones that we thought were pretty cool also and wanted to include and share within this ebook but they didn't meet the major criteria and you see that up at the top on this if they didn't have publicly available numeric benefit they're not in production but they might provide some unique value uh they're not maybe uh not broad based they're very specific or sometimes they're standards and standards is we know blockchains of team sports having some sort of standard is usually fairly important to be in successful with a blockchain set of projects so with that there's i don't know seven or eight uh also additional projects here over the next three pages that you'll be a look in there's a link at the uh with each one of them so you can get a little bit more information uh a lot of them are coming from around the world where we would we tried to have some diversity not just u.s not just europe not just asia ones that are all around and you can see here the first one here ua trade connect where they had a challenge where letters of credit were being shopped around and sometimes somebody might get uh two sets of credit and they probably should only be getting one set of credit so ua folks built this solution uh in order to prevent fraud when you're actually out there shopping these letters of credit there uh be connected in the murky or similar type of situation to gsbn as well as uh trade walls and cross trade uh paperless trade uh system for down in south america here botanical water technologies they're hoping that they're going to be uh getting clean water to 100 million consumers by 2025 so they're they're getting going here and hopefully maybe the next version of this they'll move that up into 2024 and using it and being able to track and trace the water that is coming from agricultural uh processing there uh mobi do you want to talk about this alicia or anybody you'd like to talk about mobi mobi is um uh started a few years ago global nonprofit alliance of company of vehicle manufacturers and they have a platform they've done several different projects around battery traceability they're working with both public and private sector organizations and um if you look at the if you watch the sig webinar you'll be able to get more in depth on that on their work thank you and this is an example of a standard mobi they build stuff and really they're trying to drive standards in the mobility space that's mobi okay uh longevity here um again the shippers and carriers are tracking trace type of solution here there and and maybe jeff if you want to talk about go gas and then most specifically uh circular here with for one the mining board and uh store dot let me talk about go go gas here um um go gas essentially is a pipeline management system implemented in blockchain and so pipeline management systems which i have to distribute working with is where you nominate or you schedule um products to go through a pipeline and then of course you also schedule the is a consumer to pull it out of the pipeline these are heavily regulated pipelines around the world so go gas is enabled us in blockchain why blockchain well go gas also has to be tied into some um well let me take a look at go gas is not gasoline go gas is methane it's natural gas it's this gas is used both things and so forth like consumers use so it's based on on gases in that sense but you also have renewable gases coming from the renewable energy industry recycled materials and so forth and so those are delivered when you have a a um a block a block of gas or somebody's school theater gas put in there's a renewable certificate that goes with that and what blockchain is excellent in doing is as transactions coming and blocks are made on the blockchain there are private and public keys that go along with that and those certificates can be digitized and locked down by the owner having a private key and those were then transferred transferred to the owner's in the process of the transfer process so i hope i explained that correctly but blockchain is very good at digitizing certificates for carbon credits natural gas credits from renewables um as you'll see down below on circular there's materials that are mined and the certificates go with them and these are all poop off poop of authenticity and different lots of products form blockchain by far uh handles that much better or maybe the regular applications can handle the ability to digitize and quickly sign certificates and you know those are authentic they get transferred to whoever the plus the other material um go gas does that perfectly again it's it's a trading platform and blockchain which has which is rather interesting itself but also it's ability to handle different types of gas where they came from whether renewable or not and handle handable certificates so you know there's some genuine tracking of where these products came from the last one's circular both of those circular is a company that that provides blockchain solutions and there's blockchain solutions on hyperlipedic they're they're very good at implementing those and so the two at the bottom are what we call ESG environmental i forgot i got a block environmental social governance governance the other one's governance is governance and so um again this is where windout work handle them which is on other phones which is in these computers i'm looking at right now is mined out it was mined and to prevent minors from using child or slave labor we have only cd standards that's in the list of this or either but go ahead and look up only cd um their certificates electronic certificates that are cryptographically signed that go along with all the bags of 10th one that produced all the lots that are produced so when you purchase those you can tell your customers what you're giving us to if you're binary and so forth that this has been sourced ethically you know quickly through those certificates same with store docs a store doc with um co2 tracking the prominences of co2 emissions those come down to credits and so those credits are they stored in a regular application let's say sap it's not effective at doing that it really can't do that when blockchain comes in in blocks is that traceability through topography to show where that sort of the thinking that it's authentic and that you can use it and you can sell it and trade it just like currency based upon this blockchain's ability to track it and so these are good examples again it comes to esg very hard to get numerics out of those firms because essentially when they're pulling things up they want to make them way things go in the past whether it's a company or government so esg is going to be critical for the company to be able to do business because some of their customers are demanding ability to prove whether they're sourced their products Jeff is understatement there with very hard to get numbers out of this we had many conversations how do we create some numeric benefit associated with what's happening there with circular very hard to go to a country and that comes in and says we're no longer using chance there we can track it through our new software blockchain but we can't ask the Muhammad slave what you're using in the past there you go that's a tough one we know even not to ask it but yeah there you go so that's the additional projects you can look at all these again most of them have some links with some additional information here to learn more about these and I think most of the logos if not all the logos have hyperlinks on them so that you can go directly to either the solution or the company that created those so with that let's see here ups what's happening here why can't there I go we have I'm going to do a time check here we have seven minutes remaining before we turn into a pumpkin here so Tamash I'm going to let you talk a little bit more about hyper ledger foundation and then we'll do a little wrap up here okay cool so you want me to go to yeah great thanks Tom so I guess I have about five minutes so let me try to be concise here if you can just go for a next one please Tom thank you so as I mentioned earlier we at the hyper ledger foundation we host a number of open source projects and what we refer to as a project within hyper ledger foundation is really a collaborative effort to deliver a work item and each project has its own name developer community and goals as you can see here on the page where Tommy sharing we have a number of project listed and they can be broadly categorized as the distributed ledgers tools and libraries and since we don't have time to go to each one of them individually I would like to invite you to visit our website and see how to get involved how to get the code and learn more and all of these projects are also linked here in the book so you can just follow these things here one thing I would also like to highlight from this page are hyper ledger labs and these are the you know they provide a space where people can innovate and test ideas without the creation of an official project so please follow the link here to find out more Tom can you go to the next page please so hyper ledger fabric is one of our projects and it's the most widely deployed enterprise blockchain platform according to the report from blog data which is also linked here and you're welcome to check it out it offers a modular flexible architecture with plug and play support for components such as consensus and also membership services and as you can see you know in this ebook all of these use cases were actually built using hyper ledger fabric and here is also the short introductory video which you can also see to get more information on it next page please Tom a little bit about the community work with hyper ledger so we have a vibrant community which is global and is advocating developing and deploying blockchain technologies apart from the supply chain and rate finance special interest group which prepared this book you can we also have a number of other special interest groups such as healthcare telecommunications climate action financial markets and so on and you can find them following the link here as well we offer a lot of training and certifications for both beginners as well as advanced users and we're also organizing a lot of events both in person online and here linked you can find our event page as well if you're interested in finding more about the use cases of the technology please also visit our use case tracker and to get a bit more in that information please look at the case study library and all are linked here and as you saw in a lot of these use cases there was there was already some sort of case study linked and last but not least I would also like to invite you to join a hyper ledger foundation as a member our members are industry organizations both large and small and are working on this project if you would like to learn more about corporate membership also please follow the link over here now I have one minute left Tom if you can go two slides down one more please just quickly mention the hyper ledger global forum and that is our largest annual gathering of the hyper ledger community or in other words is the biggest enterprise blockchain event of the year the people who attend can hear directly from those who are actively developing these solutions using hyper ledger technologies and here you can also find some of the sessions related to supply chain linked from the hyper ledger global forum 2022 and also there is a link so you can see also other recorded sessions you know such as central bank digital currencies or our trade finance or health care and so on and please stay tuned for our hyper ledger global forum 2024 on the event site which will be announced on our event site also linked here at the bottom okay and I think I'm one minute over Tom but I guess still okay that's quite all right and I'll put a plug in for the global forum I attended in March of 2020 in Phoenix and that's actually where I learned about the SIGs and supply chain trade finance so it was in addition to all the other good reasons that was a good reason to go to Phoenix for the hyper ledger global forum way back when in 2020 so with that let's do a wrap up here certainly there's been lots of people involved with this the people on this page are the main people that have been involved with this ebook over the course of many months and a lot of research and a lot of work and so definitely thank you for all the people that on this page here as well as thank you to the folks who brought their solution forward I mean we're hoping that we're going to be able to include your solution in some way shape or form as your solution progresses out there in the marketplace so with that thank you very much for joining us today our listening to the recording here there's a couple links if you'd like to join the hyper ledger foundation as a member there's the top link there that don't much talked about and if you'd like to talk to join our specific special interest group there's a link associated with that we're planning on updating this at some more regular basis we haven't decided what probably more like a six to nine month type of cycle here where we would provide additional updates to this and keep it fresh keep it alive keep it viable out there in the marketplace so you can use them as ideas for whatever solution you may have within supply chain and trade finance so with that thanks everybody for joining today and thanks also for listening on youtube or watching on youtube as the case may be and look forward to seeing you sometime in the future in one of our future sessions or as part of hyper ledger in a broader way thanks a lot thank you bye thank you bye okay you're gonna you'll get the recording going right good beautiful okay
