Unification partners with Beyond Blocks Summit

The flagship event of the week was the Beyond Blocks Summit, which brought together thousands of blockchain heavy hitters to discuss the industry’s most promising early-stage projects.

Unification partnered with Beyond Blocks to showcase the work that has been completed on Unification’s core product. The project and its assets were presented to a diverse cross section of Beyond Blocks attendees, from developers to investors to business owners.

The 2018 Beyond Blocks Summit in Korea marks the first time that Unification’s product was shown to such a broad range of blockchain enthusiasts, eliciting valuable feedback and considerable interest among a wide range of attendees.

Launch of Unification’s first product demo

Unification Architecture Director Shawn McLean and Product Lead Maziar Sadri were on hand to walk conference-goers through the finer details of how Unification executes data standardization through blockchain-based Smart Contracts.

A live demo of the BABEL interface was conducted in the conference’s dedicated demo room, with Maziar Sadri illustrating the flow of businesses’ experience interfacing with Unification’s dedicated data dashboard.

Maziar explained to an eager crowd how, once plugged into the Unification ecosystem, businesses can use the BABEL dashboard to view data sets, sell data to other businesses with a single click, acquire new data sets through an open data marketplace, and manipulate a wallet of UND tokens used for data exchange.

The BABEL interface was well received by curious attendees, eliciting numerous questions and generating sustained interest in the project among the crowd.
