As already announced, T-Systems will offer its business customers a "German Blockchain Ecosystem" (GBE) from 2020. The company presents this new product at this year's Digital X in Cologne on October 29 and 30. This makes T-Systems the first European digital service provider to launch a Blockchain as a Service marketplace. The new marketplace provides secure, compliant and rapidly deployable blockchain services. These include all necessary tools for development, testing and operation of blockchain networks.
T-Systems and Malta Enterprises want to push Blockchain together
Malta Enterprises will be the first partner for the German Blockchain Ecosystem. T-Systems and Malta Enterprise today announced their cooperation and have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
As an agency of the Maltese government, Malta Enterprises is responsible for both foreign investment and local economic development. Together, they want to make the benefits of GBE quickly and easily available to Maltese registered companies working on blockchain projects. Malta is recognized as a pioneer in the global blockchain industry. It is the first EU country to provide a formal legal framework for DLT solutions.
"We are delighted to offer this unique platform to Blockchain developers," says Katharyn White, Chief Marketing Officer of T-Systems, "It will increase the success of Blockchain projects and accelerate the impact of Blockchain solutions on the market”.
Kurt Farugia, CEO of Malta Enterprise, also welcomes the cooperation: “This collaboration with T-Systems will give a further competitive advantage over other jurisdictions while adding more value to the already established Blockchain ecosystem. Companies using T-System’s GBE services will have a certification for their project by the Malta Digital Innovation Authority. The relationship with T-Systems will continue to build Malta’s reputation as a solid Blockchain jurisdiction”.
