Concluding the three-year research project digilog@bw, a selected number of research outcomes have now been presented in a compact video format. The cii research group, represented by Dr. Benjamin Sturm, showcased the results of a subproject that aimed at better understanding the design of blockchain-based systems to support the open knowledge dissemination.

The ReDiBlock research project, which involves KIT AIFB, KIT Thinktank, INEC, and ipoint-systems GmbH, has successfully developed a prototype application supporting circular economy using Blockchain technology. The project's use case is focused on gold recycling, with two industry partners, C. Hafner and egf, providing valuable insights and help in refining the concept behind the prototype. The internal project closing meeting, hosted by INEC at Pforzheim University, was attended by the project partners and marked the successful completion of the project.
