Unveiling Vechain’s ‘Web3 For Better’ Sustainability Whitepaper, Co-Developed with Boston Consulting Group

San Marino, San Marino–(Newsfile Corp. – April 3, 2023) – Vechain recently launched its new sustainability-focused whitepaper (summarised here), co-developed with Boston Consulting Group, entitled ‘Web3 For Better’. In it, Vechain outlines a comprehensive vision for achieving sustainable development by building a ‘Blockchain Biosphere’ – a modular series of ‘ecosystems’ consisting of stakeholders, from individuals to enterprises, tackling specific sustainability challenges that utilise ‘nudge economics’ to drive desired outcomes.

Vechain is well known for its commercial blockchain solutions, built for some of the world’s largest enterprises. By partnering with BCG, Vechain will leverage their expertise and reputation in the ESG/sustainability field and tap into a vast client network looking to spearhead a green revolution using blockchain.

Blockchain Biospheres Approach to Sustainability

Vechain’s Blockchain Biosphere is the evolution of earlier concepts such as Vechain’s Carbon Credit DApp where drivers of electric vehicles could upload journey data and have their carbon offset calculated by smart contracts. Vechain later launched an updated version in San Marino following an invitation by the San Marino government to help it become the world’s first carbon neutral country.

By leveraging the transparency and provenance capabilities of blockchain, Vechain’s blockchain biospheres factor in the ‘positive externalities’ of consumer decision-making such as the ethics or sustainability of a good or service. By doing so, Vechain is redefining value by incorporating the idiosyncrasies of individuals often excluded from legacy valuation models. Companies generate better brand stickiness and consumers gain trust in products, helping to create an ecosystem of engagement. Vechain introduces a powerful way to drive sustainable behaviour by creating direct relationships between ecosystem partners who can leverage web3 technologies to offer new ways to engage with their communities. 

Powerful Tools Enable the Future of Sustainability

Vechain’s new sustainability ecosystems will be enabled by powerful new tools, such the imminently launched Web3-as-a-service platform, VORJ.

VORJ was built to help ‘Web2’ businesses quickly and easily deploy Web3 services. The platform allows users to simply click, compile and deploy solutions via a simple and friendly UI, creating fungible/non-fungible tokens, minting OpenZeppelin compatible smart contracts or other products with minimal technical knowledge requirements. In doing so, Vechain removes a large obstacle for businesses looking to build blockchain-powered solutions.

VeWorld, Vechain’s powerful new Web Wallet (mobile and desktop versions coming Q3) also offer game-changing features such as URL-based fee delegation – allowing individuals to use Vechain’s blockchain without paying transaction fees, thus removing a key obstacle to adoption.

Other key technical upgrades include the recently deployed carbon footprint explorer, an official sustainability-focused NFT marketplace, data oracles, a DAO development framework and deployment of popular Ethereum tools, including Hardhat and Remix, with many more in the works.

Adoption Through System Integrators

A key adoption vector for Vechain is system integrators. A dedicated team is focused on working with ERPs to integrate Vechain’s web3-as-a-service products and drive adoption at global scale.

This approach, in tandem with an extensive network of strategic partners, places Vechain at the helm of enterprise blockchain development, and aims to see Vechain thrive as a core player in the Web3-sustainability revolution.

The United Nations International Computing Center (UNICC) and ShelterZoom are pleased to announce a new innovative blockchain-based solution for controlling and protecting the digital data of UN entities and other international organizations. As the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, UNICC has partnered with ShelterZoom, a leading data and content protection and ownership SaaS company behind innovations such as Document Token® technology and Document GPS®.

Building upon the 50 years of experienced innovation from the UNICC, the two organizations collaborated on a transformational undertaking offering robust protection and promising increased productivity for document tracking and management. ShelterZoom will contribute its proprietary document tokenization technology, along with its data protection, document tracking and e-signature solutions to deliver a white-labeled platform, giving member organizations a greater level of governance over their content. Using ShelterZoom’s flagship proprietary Single Source Of Truth® technology, the solution provides a means for each file to be protected individually without changing user normal habits instead of having to rely solely on protecting files at the database level. This ‘singularity and control’ is a new era in cybersecurity and document management, which has never been seen before at this level of seamless integration with existing tools.

“The synergy between what we deliver and the goals of the United Nations are a perfect match for Single Source Of Truth,” said Chao Cheng-Shorland, CEO and Cofounder of ShelterZoom. “We have said from the beginning that it is time to think about cybersecurity in a completely new way and in doing so we have created a solution to address other operational pain points while simultaneously solving one of the biggest challenges facing the global population today. The UN is at the frontlines of changing the world for the better and its forward-thinking approach to using technology to address fundamental issues is critical in improving livelihoods for all.”

ShelterZoom solutions have already been in use across dozens of industries and with this new commercial partnership, they can now extend their usefulness to the UN family and other international organizations. The revolutionary method for complete document tracking with built-in productivity tools, such as digital signatures and a market-first method for organizing files inside email, is an all-in-one solution built for a global workforce. The Single Source of Truth model has the added benefit of decreasing the carbon footprint created by excessive digital waste, further supporting the sustainability goals of the United Nations.

“The need for robust cybersecurity and data protection has never been greater,” said Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC. “By working together with ShelterZoom, we have developed a cutting-edge tool tailored to the needs of the UN family. Our unwavering commitment to providing best-in-class solutions ensures we continue to support the digital transformation and modernization of the UN system and other international organizations.”
