Welcome to NGI Assure

Welcome to the space for NGI Assure within the extended NGI Community! Join the community then introduce yourself here.

NGI Assure's ambition

The ambition of NGI Assure is to support projects that design and engineer reusable building blocks for the Next Generation Internet as part of a complete, strong chain of assurances for all stakeholders regarding the source and integrity of identities, identifiers, data, cyberphysical systems, service components and processes.

How NGI Assure will reach its goals

The ultimate goal of NGI Assure is to close the gaps for more efficient, scalable and secure blockchain applications, by supporting up to 112 promising bottom-up projects (BuPs) that are able to build, on top of state-of-the-art research, reusable Advanced Blockchain Technologies (ABT) and related enabling technologies to assist in the practical transition or migration to new or updated technologies.

Here's some context

The internet lies at the heart of our modern economies and societies, but it was not
designed to be used in the way we use it now. Additional innovations are needed, in
particular to make usage of remote resources on the internet more trustworthy and
secure. The goal of NGI Assure is to support projects that design and engineer
reusable building blocks for the Next Generation Internet as part of a complete, strong
chain of assurances for all stakeholders regarding the source and integrity of identities,
identifiers, data, cyberphysical systems, service components and processes.
