Seeds&Chips Milano: What to watch for

On May 7th at 12:15 pm GMT+2 (8:15 PM in Sydney/6:15 AM in New York) VeChain CEO Sunny Lu and a panel of speakers will come on stage to discuss how blockchain is empowering supply chains and sustainable development goals.

What is Seeds&Chips?

Seeds&Chips is a global summit that discusses how to improve the global food chain. This year more than 12,600 people and 350 media outlets will attend, giving speakers and entrepreneurs a chance to spread their ideas with the world.

During the panel, entitled “How the Ecosystem is the New Black: How Blockchain is Changing the Rules of the Game,” Sunny Lu will be joined by a number of ecosystem partners including Renato Grottola and Luca Crisciotti of DNV GL, and Sergio Mottola of San Marino Innovation.

Building on the positive momentum achieved in enhancing transparency in supply chains (www.dnvgl.com/mystory/mystory-winemakers.html) using the VeChain blockchain, DNV GL, in partnership with other companies and stakeholders, will take the next steps and introduce a wider eco-system concept. The purpose is to create alignment and societal engagement on wider topics linked to SDG’s (the United Nation Sustainable Development Goals) and circular economy, such as greener mobility or achieving higher recycling rates where multi-party activities need to be defined and incentives operationalized. Smarter inclusion of citizens and corporations allowing them to do good and be rewarded in the form of pre-defined value transfer enabled by a blockchain platform will be explored and discussed.

What can we expect to hear?

Naturally, they will be discussing the success of My Story in using blockchain to increase transparency and trust in the blockchain. More intriguingly, at the VeChain Developer summit Sunny Lu spoke about working with the United Nations on the Sustainable Development Goals, which he then tweeted about multiple times throughout the week.

Working with the UNDP would open a lot of doors in the food and AgriTech sectors, as well as be a major source of credibility for the blockchain startup.

Representatives from San Marino will hopefully give more details on their participation in the ecosystem as well. San Marino is at the front of blockchain development in Europe, providing a regulated and legal region to work in.

Regardless, with the large amount of media outlets covering the talks, it should be a valuable opportunity for VeChain to put their best foot forward. Listed below are the media outlets that covered the event.
