Brussels, 12 November 2021 – Blockchain Association Singapore and INATBA (International Association for Trusted Blockchain Applications) have signed an MoU launching a partnership to mutually advance the global blockchain ecosystem and benefit both organisations’ members.

INATBA and Blockchain Association Singapore (BAS) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to establish a partnership that will advance both organisations’ work in the blockchain ecosystem, contribute toward increased global cooperation around DLT and benefit the more than 200 members of both organisations. This partnership will be announced at Blockchain Association Singapore’s upcoming SG Blockchain Day 2021, held online on 12 November.

Blockchain Association Singapore was established to facilitate collaboration between market participants and stakeholders in the Blockchain ecosystem. The association is an effective platform for members to engage with multiple stakeholders to find solutions to issues and to promote best practices in a collaborative, open, and transparent manner.

INATBA (International Association for Trusted Blockchain Applications) convenes industry stakeholders, startups, SMEs, policymakers, international organisations, regulators, civil society and standard-setting bodies to support blockchain and DLT to be mainstreamed and scaled-up across multiple sectors worldwide. INATBA promotes the usage of blockchain technology by developing transparent and trust-based global frameworks across its 15 Working Groups and Committee topics, including finance, identity, supply chain, interoperability and more.

In response to the signing of the MoU, BAS Co-Chairman Chia Hock Lai noted: “We are excited to work with INATBA to bring its European policy expertise to our membership base. As blockchain moves toward widespread adoption, global cooperation will be paramount in helping it succeed.”

INATBA Executive Director Marc Taverner added: “INATBA is thrilled to work with Blockchain Association Singapore and its membership base to advance global progress on blockchain. Singapore and the surrounding Southeast Asian region is a key geography for DLT development.”

This memorandum intends to establish a mutually beneficial partnership between BAS and INATBA by encouraging cooperation around global events and discussions. Collaboration with BAS will help to facilitate mutual understanding of the international and Southeast Asian DLT and regulatory landscapes. INATBA Executive Director Marc Taverner will be speaking on BAS’s forthcoming SG Blockchain Day panel entitled “Digital Assets Regulations: What’s Next.” The two associations will also work together to deliver exciting international events, including INATBA’s 2022 flagship event, Convergence.
