MEETUP TO DISCUSS BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY IN SUPPLY CHAIN
Blockchain technology may be shaking up a supply chain near you. It's smarter, it's faster, and it gets more participants on board.
In a recent piece at Harvard Business Review, Michael J. Casey and Pindar Wong observe that blockchain -- an online globally distributed general ledger that keeps track of transactions via online "smart contracts" -- will produce "dynamic demand chains in place of rigid supply chains, resulting in more efficient resource use for all." They observe that a number of startups are springing up around blockchain-enabled supply chains, and companies such as Walmart, IBM and BHP Billiton are launching efforts to better track the movement of goods and information.

"It could be especially powerful when combined with smart contracts, in which contractual rights and obligations, including the terms for payment and delivery of goods and services, can be automatically executed by an autonomous system that’s trusted by all signatories."
