Blockchain research and development company IOHK has announced a partnership with Ethiopia’s government to explore applications of blockchain technology in the country. In collaboration with the Ethiopian Ministry of Science and Technology, IOHK will work with ministers, entrepreneurs, and start-up companies to examine blockchain applications that can benefit the country. Ethiopia is exploring a first use case of supply chain traceability for coffee, its largest export, among other agricultural technology applications.
In addition, IOHK will train up to 100 Ethiopian software development students in Haskell, a rigorous programming language used for mission-critical applications and blockchain development, including the protocol behind top 10 cryptocurrency Cardano.
