Hedera is a decentralized public network where developers can build secure, fair applications with near real-time consensus. The platform is owned and governed by a council of global innovators including Avery Dennison, Boeing, Deutsche Telekom, DLA Piper, FIS (WorldPay), Google, IBM, LG Electronics, Magalu, Nomura, Swirlds, Tata Communications, University College London (UCL), Wipro, and Zain Group. The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) acts as a trust layer for any application or permissioned network and allows for the creation of an immutable and verifiable log of messages. Application messages are submitted to the Hedera network for consensus, given a trusted timestamp, and fairly ordered. Use HCS to track assets across a supply chain, create auditable logs of events in an advertising platform, or even use it as a decentralized ordering service.
FarmaTrust uses the blockchain to allow easy monitoring of drug products from the point of manufacture to the point of consumption. Our aim is to create a network between the pharmaceutical companies, logistic providers, hospitals, and pharmacies to have an integrated worldwide system so data can be trusted, shared, analysed, thereby saving lives and creating efficiencies. Incorporating AI and machine learning will also allow FarmaTrust to provide value added services.
