For the second time, the University of Basel hosted the Blockchain Challenge in the autumn semester of 2019. Same as last year, multiple groups of students were challenged to develop a concrete business case given by participating companies. Afterwards projects were presented to a jury consisting of representatives of the companies as well as experts in the field of blockchain/DLT during our gala event.
