At CREA, we've assembled a roster of world-class blockchain talent and, coupled with the deep knowledge, developer team and reach of nChain, we will be a powerhouse helping businesses harness the potential of blockchain for their biggest challenges. From finance to shipping, from supply chain management to injecting transparency into production processes, blockchain will disrupt the business landscape and we're proud to be at the forefront of it."
