Norwegian University of Science and Technology
NTNU has a sweeping Digital Transformation Initiative with a goal “to pursue research on the development and application of digital, transformative technology.” The initiative includes nine projects and 48 Ph.D. candidates. One of the projects is Trust and Transparency in Digital Society Through Blockchain Technology, involving the contributions of 12 multidisciplinary professors and nine PhD candidates. Noting “blockchains are only relevant when they relate to mistrusting entities in a social context and serve a real application,” the researchers aim to learn more about the technology, societal impact and application of blockchain technology.
