​​Blockchain technology is getting a higher education. As the demand grows for faster payments, settlements, and reconciliations, the blockchain will be playing an integral part of these fast-paced technological advancements.

The past 12 months both OpenLedger and MVP experience tremendous success and growth from their partnership together. The scholarly work produced by MVP’s partner universities will be used as the foundation of this rapidly-evolving emerging tech.
