SINGAPORE, June 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Founded in Singapore, Linfinity is the world's first distributed supply chain platform based on blockchain, Internet of Things and Big Data technology, that is commercialising FMCG products. It aims to transform the supply chain industry by building a trusted and traceable anti-counterfeiting supply chain through blockchain technology.
Today's global supply chains are slow, inefficient, and susceptible to fraud and negligence. This, in combination with consumers' increasing demand for greater levels of transparency regarding product origins, is exactly what Linfinity plans to address in its blockchain system for supply chains. With reliable data, transparent information and interconnected networks, Linfinity enables traceability of supply chains from source to end consumer.
The application of blockchain technology in the supply chain industry enables the following advantages within the ecosystem:
Mr Anndy Lian, CEO of Linfinity Singapore, said, "As the demand for transparency increases for products, the application of blockchain to this system will not only improve supply chain efficiency, but allow reliable collection of data. Throughout the various points in the supply chain, the data will be handled in a secure, digitised and verifiable manner. This will allow consumers to access accurate and trustworthy information about the product that previously was unavailable to them, as well as ensure that the product is authentic."
Linfinity Introduces Blockchain Technology to Various Supply Chain Industries
Moving ahead to raise greater awareness in the blockchain space, Linfinity has several upcoming collaborations across various industries, which also includes conducting a blockchain roundtable to facilitate open discussion around blockchain.
Linfinity has signed Memorandum of Understandings (MOUs) with six companies -- Crossinvest, RHTLaw Taylor Wessing LLP, RHT Holdings, RONGDE Logistics, Scientific Tradition, and WealthBriefingAsia on 31 May, Thursday. These MOU signings will mark the start of strategic collaborations between industry partners and Linfinity to explore blockchain together.
Under the terms of the memorandum with Scientific Tradition and RONGDE Logistics, Linfinity will introduce its blockchain system to their supply chains in order to increase effectiveness and efficiency. The introduction of Linfinity's blockchain system to Scientific Tradition's supply chain will protect their research from fraud and negligence and provide a transparent overview of product origins to their consumers.
The MOU signings with Crossinvest and WealthBriefingAsia signal the agreement between partners to contribute knowledge and expertise in their respective fields to facilitate the blockchain ecosystem at different points of the supply chain. Linfinity's partnership with RHTLaw Taylor Wessing LLP and RHT Holdings will entail pilot trials implementing blockchain technology for future projects involving the clients of RHT across multiple industries in Singapore and the region.
Mr Tan Chong Huat, Managing Partner of RHTLaw Taylor Wessing LLP, said, "Linfinity's partnership with RHTLaw Taylor Wessing and RHT Holdings creates exciting opportunities to collaborate and value add to this ecosystem. We look forward to commencing these pilot trials for our future projects, as well as to support and further the work that Linfinity is doing within the supply chain industry. With the transparency and accountability afforded by blockchain technology, we believe this can be a gamechanger, and with further potential for this technology across various sectors, it is something we are excited to be a part of."
In line with Linfinity's partnership with WealthBriefingAsia, Linfinity is proud to announce that it is the official blockchain partner for this year's WealthBriefingAsia Awards. Held on 31 May, Friday, at the Westin Singapore, the WealthBriefingAsia Awards is a prestigious event showcasing the best and brightest of the private banking and wealth management space.
