LUGANO, Switzerland, April 1, 2019 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Jelurida continues to build its reputation as a trusted provider of blockchain

software and learning services. Henkel [https://www.henkel.com/], a German

manufacturer with leading positions in consumer and industrial businesses with

more than 20 billion euros in sales, partnered with Jelurida

[https://www.jelurida.com/] to build the capacity of product and IT teams to

understand, approach, and implement blockchain solutions.

Preparing for a Digitalized Future

Jelurida and Henkel kicked off the engagement with a 6-hour workshop on

Wednesday, March 27th at Henkel's Dusseldorf headquarters. The effort is part

of Henkel's 2020+ strategy to accelerate digitalization across the company.

"Working in the digital age requires keeping up to date on emerging technology

to solve business problems better," said Rodolfo Quijano, Head of EDI and

Blockchain at Henkel. "That's why we partnered with Jelurida to bring knowledge

of blockchain to our IT, Shared Services and Enterprise Process Managers in

Dusseldorf."

"We are very impressed by Henkel's commitment to keeping their staff on the

cutting edge of technology," said Lior Yaffe, co-founder and managing director

of Jelurida. "We were able to engage in substantive discussions around where

blockchain truly adds value in existing business processes – and there are many

opportunities."

This announcement came shortly after an Ardor-based solution for incentivizing

diabetes prevention won the grand prize at the Good Dollar Hackathon in Tel Aviv.
