Block.IS Experience

Block.IS has a positive impact on myself as well as my company Digiotouch. Thanks to the Cluster Mission in Novi Sad, I was able to network with like-minded peers which resulted in preparing an H2020 proposal submitted in January 2020. In addition to that, the first Open Call gave me the opportunity to showcase BlockTrace, a product we are developing to a wider Blockchain and DLT community in Europe.
