Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative
(Redirected from MOBI)
Basics
- Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative (MOBI)
- Automotive giants like Ford, General Motors, BMW & Renault along with automotive parts manufacturers Bosch and ZF & IBM and Accenture have joined hands to apply blockchain technology to the automotive sector.
- A nonprofit consortium
"In a series of meetings in late 2017 and early 2018, more than fifty percent of the world’s top automakers, along with many start-ups, tech giants, foundations, and forward thinking mobility providers, met to discuss the potential of blockchain to make mobility safer, greener, and more affordable.
As a result, the group decided to found and launch MOBI in May 2018. MOBI would be a way for these organizations to meet in a more structured environment to organize their discoveries and conversations around the space. Since our founding, over 100 corporations, government, NGOs, and nonprofits have joined our community and now actively participate in working groups, events, hackathons, weekly channel calls, and more in order to promote MOBI’s shared vision."
