Who we are
We are experts who are working to build the foundation for a DLT infrastructure taking in varied perspectives. In order to create a state-of-the-art DLT infrastructure, we rely on the support of thought leaders, movers and shakers from startups, SMEs, major corporations, financial intermediaries and industry associations. Together, we can raise key questions, define challenges, and collaborate on solutions.
The Stakers
Stakers are organisations that contribute funds and resources to the development of the 4T-DLT initiative. They appoint a representative for the Shapers (see description below) and receive access to all activities and documents. If you want to support 4T-DLT with your organisation, please contact us.
The Shapers
The Shapers are the co-founders of the 4T-DLT initiative. These individuals validate the strategy and act as a Steering Committee. They are engaged in all activities, and are our liaison as leading experts, from business and research, to co-determinate the infrastructure of tomorrow.
