The rapidly increasing popularity of blockchain in the banking and finance sector has spread to the professional services sector with a deal between consultancy EY and blockchain technology provider The Bitfury Group.
The agreement, announced Monday whereby The Bitfury Group will provide blockchain software services to EY and its client network, comes after it won “Best Pitch” for its blockchain solution for digital rights management at an EY Startup Challenge Showcase Day. During the challenge, The Bitfury Group explored several use cases with more than 20 EY client companies seeking to integrate blockchain technology.
